great watch dog [Posted on 2007-12-14]
This product has been a great help in controlling our child's time on the internet and the content that is accessed. The added features of e-mail alerts and remote access are a definite plus.

Not bad [Posted on 2008-05-01]
This is good tool to help keep my kids from wandering too far off the safe internet path. I expected to get more out of the reporting functions, especially with IM. A bit clumsy to get started with. Make sure you are logged in before launching any browser package, or you may end up locking yourself out.

Limited functionality [Posted on 2008-08-26]
I have been using NetNanny on 2 computers for over 6 months. I like the filtering and time restrictions, but thats where the pros end. The internet time usage feature does not work and customer support have not been able to offer any help. When I enable this feature the internet is totally blocked upon logging in. Also this program is an all or nothing program, meaning it completely blocks all internet use at the times you plug in, which maybe useful for a family with young children less than 8. Myself I prefer a program that will allow access to the inetrnet for specific programs that I allow for homework etc and then restricted all others. This is not possible with NetNanny at this time. This coupled with the non functioning options within the program and annual subscription rates prompted me to rate it at 2 stars. There are better options available

Safety Software for My Family! [Posted on 2008-08-27]
I have owned several versions of Net Nanny - and the latest, version 5.6 is awesome. It allows me to set-up a profile for each family member based on their age. Net Nanny just won the 2008 PC Mag Editor's Choice Award for Parental Controls- and it has earned it and more in my house. My kids have their Internet access shut off every school night at 7PM sharp thanks to Net Nanny. Anyone who isn't using a filter or parental controls and has kids surfing the Internet is asking for trouble
