Smoothwall for Education

Smoothwall empowers schools to digitally safeguard the students in their care with next-generation web filtering, firewall, digital monitoring, and classroom management solutions.

Smoothwall solutions are engineered to address the safety and well-being of students, the self-sufficiency needs of teachers, and the cost-efficiency needs of school districts. They are designed to keep our customers one step ahead in the evolving world of digital safety.

Our solutions can be deployed standalone or combined for a complete digital safety provision that’s easy to use and efficient to manage.

Cloud Filter

Smoothwall Cloud Filter is ideal for school districts who don’t want the burden of maintaining an on-premise filtering appliance. It’s ideal for those wanting to sidestep any throughput problems and eliminate choke issues when filtering data. The Cloud option is optimal for 1:1 environments.

KEY FEATURES • Extend student protection: Filter all managed devices on or offsite and extend student protection to the home not just in school. • Faster reporting: Enables faster, investigative reporting than on-premise. Of particular value to customers with large data sets.

If anyone says this is a good application then they need to be checked into a mental hospital. This is the worst thing to every be on this planet and it needs to be banned

If you get it, you can't get rid of it. This is absoulutely awful, it blocks anything and everything, makes your device a litreal jail If you wanna play sum maths game or been told to? blocked. if you wanna watch a YT video for science or smth? blocked. not kidding when i say it Blocks EVERYTHING if you are seeing this its best you DONT install this app.

smoothwall has made my time at school akin to inhaling 13kg of asbestos. not only is it virtually impossible to find a workaround, unlike other less well-made cloud filters, it also doxxes you by making your credit card information and your residential address public whenever you search up something it has blocked. once a flying cow flew through an open window and took away my crypto mining rig after i searched up 'how to build a nuclear bomb'. i lost 0.3 ethereum. this truly is a George Orwell's 1984 moment. what's more, even after going to C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions and corrupting the files, it still finds a way to come back. please free me from this purgatory.
