"We had serious problems with our previous content filtering software when running some of our web based student software. Those problems have been completely eliminated with the SecureSchool solution."
| "The support staff is great! They are always very willing and able to help. It is refreshing not to be placed on hold forever when calling for a company for support.
As a new customer, K12USA worked with us to come up with purchasing contracts that made the transition to SecureSchool very agreeable to our schools in Arizona.
We are extremely please with the content filtering this software is providing for our students. We had serious problems with our previous content filtering software when running some of our web based student software. Those problems have been completely eliminated with the SecureSchool solution.

"We have been happy so far with the SecureSchool system. Your technical support has been great"
| "We have been happy so far with the SecureSchool system. Your technical support has been great. Whenever we had problems technical support was able to determine what the problems consisted off and repaired them in a timely manner. The program has showed a lot of the things our students are really trying to access. I feel the program has been a success since we have had it." |

"SecureSchool has been a life saver for the Beverly City School district..."
| "SecureSchool has been a life saver for the Beverly City School District especially in the technology phase of academic instruction. As the computer teacher I have worked with other filters, many of which were not as efficient as SecureSchool. So far, SecureSchool is helping to keep our students on task rather than being distracted by accidentally opening inappropriate sites." |

"SecureSchool is excellent!!!..."
| "SecureSchool is excellent!!!...And (if this is even possible) the support has been better than excellent. I have used both e-mail and phone support, depending on the need. Response times have been FAST!...
Because SecureSchool has several different types of filtering, we really haven't had any problems. They maintain a banned sites list as well as other types of filtering based on weighted phrases and pics ratings. We can add our own blocked sites and we can add sites to our allowed sites list...
...I would highly recommend their services...I also like the fact that I can manage the system from anywhere, school or home."

"We receive the device on a Friday and had it up and running in two hours"
| "SecureSchool is a SUPER device ! We receive the device on a Friday and had it up and running in two hours. The "tech staff" listen to my concerns and gave me ideas that would help my school network improve and protect my students, staff, and network computers. The device comes with all the correct wires and all the information to "setup" are on line in the device. SecureSchool can easily be setup for filtering from our schools or from home on a weekend ---- a real time saver!

"I am very pleased with secureschool"
| "School has been back in session for two weeks now and I am very pleased with secureschool. What a relief not to worry constantly about internet filtering. I haven't had to adjust the filter settings much and I have only had a fraction of the helpdesk calls I had daily with Cyberpatrol. Also, being able to administer it from the web/network has made my life so much easier. Thanks again for helping us set everything up properly and for guiding me through the system operation.

"Support during purchase, installation and operation have been unbelievably good"
| "SecureSchool has worked out extremely well for us. Pricing was very good. Support during purchase, installation and operation have been unbelievably good. It does a much better job filtering out things we do not want the kids to see or do. It is very user friendly, we can easily make changes as needed. " |

"The greatest asset of SecureSchool is the outstanding support"
| "We have used SecureSchool for the past two years at MHLT Elementary (a K through 8th grade school). I have been extremely pleased with the filter's performance and the flexibility of the system. The greatest asset of SecureSchool is the outstanding support. We have had few problems, but the ones we had were solved immediately. The support people have worked with me to get the most effective configuration that balances screening with user needs and are patient and thorough. Because of the level of service we have received, we also signed up for WebMailPro which is up and running perfectly." |

"I just wanted to pass along some kudo's for a great product and great customer service and tech support. "
| "First of all, I formerly worked in a school environment and SecureSchool was the best solution we found to fill our need of internet filtering. It was easy to set up and configure. After it was installed, it was running peacefully in the background, making my job much easier, and our students could access the internet in a much more secure environment.
When I moved to my current position, an internet filter was also required for an on-site school, hospital patient use and staff. SecureSchool / ISBoss was my first thought, and it has again been the perfect solution for our LAN environment.
Your sales and customer service people have always been friendly and very helpful. And your tech support has been stellar! It's a very rare occasion when and if the SecureSchool / ISBoss box has any issues, but when that rare occasion has happened, your tech support has resolved the issue in no time flat. I'm really impressed, and needed to let you know what a wonderful job your people and your product are doing!
Thank you for making my life (and job) a lot easier!" |

"SecureSchool and K12USA are definitely top notch"
| "I don't know where to start. K12usa.com has been a pleasure to deal
with since the first time I called for information about your
SecureSchool product. Your support staff spent a great deal of time on
the phone with me explaining the product and how it worked before I
even made a decision to purchase it.
We purchased it for our school district and believe me when I say "it
has made my job much easier". Please don't tell my boss about that
one. Anytime I have had any concerns, your staff
has taken the time to help no matter what.
The fact that K12usa.com recently contacted me to tell me that our
current box was not handling our traffic load and then sent me an
upgraded unit free of charge just blew me away. I would definitely
recommend K12usa.com to anyone who asked.
Well, I have said more than enough already so I will close by saying,
"SecureSchool and K12USA are definitely top notch".

"Parents were concerned that the laptops would be misused or allow on-line predators to communicate with their children. After one year with this solution [SecureSchool] we did not have a single incident."
| "I have managed firewall and content filter services in my District for the past 11 years. Last year we implemented a one-to-one laptop program in grade 8 and needed a way to filter the laptops when they leave campus to go home with the students. SecureSchool's solution solved this problem for us and worked perfectly. It filtered the homebound user and provided the accountability we needed to safely deploy laptops. We not only solved our problem but we also had very fine grained reporting on a user by user basis. Parents were concerned that the laptops would be misused or allow on-line predators to communicate with their children. After one year with this solution we did not have a single incident. The combination of port and service based firewall protection along with the proxy based content filter is a homerun for k-12 education." |
