Re: Web Monitoring Appliance or service

2010-09-24 Thread James Rankin
We got a WebSense hardware appliance hoping it would be easier to configure
than the WebSense software. It is, but not by a great deal - just the
networking seems to be simplified a bit. It also doesn't support XenApp 6
yet, which we were a bit miffed about (the tech we spoke to assured us it
would - looks like he meant XenApp 5).

The reporting, filtering and customisation is all very good though, pretty
much identical to the WebSense software. The UI is a bit annoying at times
(especially when hunting for AD users and groups) but otherwise works very
well.

 I'm currently using an older iPrism appliance for my 250 users, comes in
 very handy, however it's coming up for renewal and it's quit price, $12k for
 36 months (with an additional promo 18 months free).
 Before I do the renewal, I would like to know what you guys are using and
 to see if I should switch: Barracuda etc.
