We have about 600 users, most go through our corp headquarters. We use Postini's e-mail filtering and it's worth the price, imho. The price of the web filtering is a bit out there, compared to other services. Reconciling that against maintaining it in-house though, the cost goes down pretty quickly. And the possibility to catch zero day issues, it starts to make sense for us. Just hard to chew on the price. J
If you're bigger than 600 with multiple sites, it's far easier to implement than a dedicated piece of hardware..again, imho.

Compared to it's email services the web filtering is pretty expensive with all the options enabled. Olly From: Jason Morris [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 04 August 2008 15:50 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Web filtering software for Windows 2003 I've been somewhat partial to GFI WebMonitor. The pricing is ok overall compared to other services. We're looking at Postini/Google's product as well. The Postini service means we don't have to manage the backend software/hardware. Just setup SSL connectivity to AD and build rules for the groups. Good luck, Jason From: Oliver Marshall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 04, 2008 9:40 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Web filtering software for Windows 2003 Hi, Can anyone recommend a basic web filtering package to run on a windows server for a small company of around 15 users? The only requirements are that it can block via category and it can provide some level of reporting to an admin to show who's doing what and who's breaking what rules.
