Considered Both Products
GoGuardian Admin
Chose GoGuardian Admin
GoGuardian Admin has been leading the way in content filtering for both on and off site with an easy-to-use interface. At the time, it was one of the first to offer cloud-based off-site filtering for Chromebooks. They continue to grow and provide new features every year with …
Chose GoGuardian Admin
I know GoGuardian has several competitors out there like Harpara and Securly but none of them stack up to the level we have come to expect from GoGuardian.
Chose GoGuardian Admin
GoGuardian is the industry leader in this space. We have been a client for six years and have never had an issue with the product or support. We've investigated other options, but have found the feature set, ease of use, and reliability is unmatched.
Chose GoGuardian Admin
Not sure if WatchGuard has student monitoring in place yet, but they didn't when we were using them, so we needed to use another product alongside it. GoGuardian Admin is nice because it's all accessible from one single interface.
Chose GoGuardian Admin
It's the only product that combines administration, filtering, inventory management, and instructional practices at a high level. If we didn't have GoGuardian we would have to match together two or more products to do what GoGuardian does for our school.
Chose GoGuardian Admin
When we were first looking for a cloud filtering solution, there were not many competitors out there. We looked at Securly, but at the time, they did not match up. GoGuardian Admin had far more features (that would benefit us) at that time. I know there are more solutions …
Chose GoGuardian Admin
Easier to use and set up. Interface is nicer and cleaner. Support is better and data is easier to access. More cost effective.
Chose GoGuardian Admin
Not as robust as the Google Admin Console, but has plenty of features we like, and utilize - to keep kids safe online.
Qustodio
Chose Qustodio
Qustodio stacks up well against other products like Norton Family, Kaspersky Safe Kids, and Net Nanny in terms of its features and capabilities. All of these products offer similar features like website filtering, app management, and monitoring of internet activities. However, …
Chose Qustodio
Qustodio is a great product. We reviewed many products in our search for a communication and browser management tool and ultimately arrived at the conclusion that Qustodio was the application for us. It has a clean interface and is easy to use! We are able to customize our …

GoGuardian AdminQustodio
Likelihood to Recommend
GoGuardian Admin took the pressure off of IT to deal with filtering and gave control to the building admin. No longer does IT have to check if the website is appropriate or if the building principal wants to allow it. They take care of it on their own! Put ownership of internet use back on the building admin instead of IT, since it was always a classroom management problem, not a technology problem.

Cons
  • The system cannot inform our team about cyber bullying or harassment.
  • Students can still play some games if those games are loaded to a Google Site.
  • There are times when a Chromebook that hasn't been restarted in a while will not show up online. This is problematic as students do not restart as much as they should.

Qustodio stacks up well against other products like Norton Family, Kaspersky Safe Kids, and Net Nanny in terms of its features and capabilities. All of these products offer similar features like website filtering, app management, and monitoring of internet activities. However, Qustodio stands out for its ease of use and user-friendly interface. It also offers more granular controls for setting time limits and restrictions, and the alerts it sends are more detailed and informative. Additionally, Qustodio's customer support is also very responsive and helpful.We selected Qustodio over the other products because it offered the best balance of features, ease of use, and customer support. It was also more cost-effective than some of the other options. Overall, Qustodio has proven to be a reliable and effective solution for our organization's internet usage management needs.

Return on Investment
  • It has allowed us to deploy thousands of devices for home and on-premises use successfully. Without this cloud filtering, we would be stuck.
  • The theft recovery piece has allowed us to get our assets back from students that have left the district or that have misused them.
