Ok, ive been using ISA 2006 for a while. Very nice. But too big and heavy comparing to Winroute firewall which is a total of about 28 mb only.
Anyways. I just went through Winroute Firwalls options. And it seems to have everything i need for my work office.
1. Block websites by key words
2. Block websites by URL
3. Manage blocking by single user or groups
4. And what i like most is the statistics where you can see what websites people view, it actually shows you the link e.g www.cnn.com
With ISA, thing i didnt like most was when i viewed its reports, it showed me all the links in IP addresses. So i had to spend a long time doing a revers dns lookup on each to find out what that site was about? Is there something i dont know of here? Or is this typical of ISA 2006?
And finally id like to know your opinion on converting to winroute firewall. I want to start using that now instead of ISA, is it worth it? Any of you have any experieces with it of how good or bad it can be?
