     Web Filtering

    CurrentWare’s BrowseControl provides the best WebTitan alternatives for internet security and policy management.

    Each web security solution provides advanced threat protection features including the ability to block cyber threats such as known malicious websites.

    Both CurrentWare and WebTitan by TitanHQ provide you with the granular access policies needed to ensure that everyday web usage in businesses and educational institutions alike is free from inappropriate web browsing.

    BrowseControl’s key advantage is the ability to granularly restrict and allow specific URLs. With WebTitan the entire domain must be blocked; if you’d like to block the majority of a website while allowing access to specific pages you’ll need BrowseControl’s URL filter.

    Both companies offer a partner program for Managed Service Providers and resellers, providing advantageous discounts of their web content filtering solutions.

    Employee Monitoring

    The CurrentWare Suite includes BrowseReporter, a powerful employee monitoring solution to help ensure that your everyday internet users are avoiding harmful sites and time wasting web content such as social media sites, malicious websites, adult sites, and streaming media.

    While WebTitan does offer a modest level of web traffic monitoring, it lacks the granular insights into employee internet usage that a dedicated employee monitoring tool can provide.

    BrowseReporter’s continuous monitoring and comprehensive reporting engine provides detailed insights on managed computers including employee productivity, misused bandwidth, Windows applications, active/idle time, and web browsing.

    CurrentWare’s web filtering module BrowseControl includes 100+ content categories including file storage, social media, porn, games, and known virus-infected websites.

    Last updated January 2023

    Our previous web filtering provider, WebTitan, needed to be more consistent in how it worked. 

    It worked okay at first, but after a while, the users started experiencing performance issues.

    On top of that, several times, policy updates we pushed out weren’t working as expected. I reached out to WebTitan support and got no response whatsoever—we couldn’t operate like that.

    When I was looking for WebTitan alternatives, I came across CurrentWare. I chose them because they had the best control and price point for our needs.

    As a ‘novice’ I was able to set up with help from support in about an hour. Previous software took forever and didn’t work as advertised. This software worked right out of the box.
