Keep your eye open in 2008..:)
Webmonitor is very good, support is excellent. Mr Tolmachoff however, swears by
Burstek.

Well, we're debating whether to renew SurfControl for another three years, but
if we do and a newer version of ISA server comes out, we probably won't be able
to upgrade it until we get a new product. So, we're kinda being forced away
from SurfControl, either now or within a couple of years.
I had several conversations with GFI about their WebMonitor (WebFilter edition)
this week, no "deal" there! The problem appears to be mostly caused by their
licensing model, where they go by total number of users, not concurrent users.

I'm looking for recommendations on web filtering software for the ISA server.
With SurfControl being bought out by WebSense, it is time to start looking at
possible alternatives. While they will continue supporting current
SurfControl customers for a few more years, it also means that if a new release
of ISA server comes out we cannot upgrade (right now we're running ISA2006).
Originally we were hoping to go with GFI WebFilter, but after getting a quote
we decided not to go that route (it costs literally 10 times more than
SurfControl!). So, we're back to the search, and looking for good replacements.
We ran across this website listing a bunch of different products, and I would
like to know any comments you guys have about the different products, both good
and bad.
