Great service that gives me total control over my devices. adblocking, tracker blocking and keeping undesirable content out of my kids phones is great!
Ignore the last 2 reviews as these people don't know what they're talking about. Control D is a DNS resolver, that blocks malware and ads (really well). Yes you can do "geo-unblocking" with it but that is a niche feature they dont even advertise. I personally use it for BBC iplayer, it works fine, but even if it didn't I'd still use Control D for managing my networks and child devices.
A+ for me (as a person who actually understands what this service does).
Using ControlD in business. Handles the load perfectly, anycast is great. We use ad and malware blocking filters, machine learning AI - there were only two false positives, which were promptly fixed. We use domains to redirect geo, the number of servers to choose from is awesome. Thanks to the ControlD team! I plan to take a personal subscription for myself (there are features that are personally applicable), not just as a business.
I was hesitant to try this, as Windscribe already offered most of its functionality, although using different tech. Boy, I'm glad I did! First thing I set up on my devices and operating systems. Even my family uses it, whitout them thinking about it; I set it up as default on our router, which I can manage and fine tune when it's needed, with a different profile for me. Highly recommended.
