Chromebook Filtering Offsite

[bjohnny42]

We are thinking about a rollout of Chromebooks to pupils over the next couple of years. What options are out there with regards to making sure the same filtering we have in place in school happens at home or in a coffeshop?

Smoothwall has an option, but what else is out there?

We use Securly - this provides our onsite filtering for all devices and offsite for Chromebooks. Works well and have quite a lot of nice features. GoGuardian is the other big player - we used them but found Securly a more cost effective option as it was cheaper and did all of our filtering. Both authenticate against the users G Suite account.

Where does your current filtering sit in the network, on the outside or the inside?

+1 for GoGuardian. It's installed as a user based app, so when a student logs in with GAFE account, GoGuardian is pushed at that time.

Not sure if Senso works with Chromebooks, but may be worth a look/enquiring as if they don't I can't see it being long till they do and it seems like a powerful tool.
