## Reviews

### "Growing filtering solution for K-12 Education" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *23 April 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I'm a fan of how Lightspeed can integrate into our existing directory structure. We are able to leverage the org structure from Google Workspace to filter our students and staff. They also are adding new features and functionality which means the product continues to add value beyond the initial purchase.
> 
> **Cons**: Deployment can take some hoops to jump through in order to properly deploy the solution, however the documentation and implementation with 3rd party MDM solutions has been getting better and support is happy to help out and book time with you to make sure things are working properly.

### "Lightspeed for mid sized diverse user districts" — 4.0/5

> **Arnie** | *30 March 2022* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Lightspeed is easy to deploy across our medium sized network (15,000 devices). Training teachers and getting them up and running quickly made the product a solid choice for our 1000 teachers.
> 
> **Cons**: The end user experience for the teacher could be improved. Other products have features like desktop management that are cleaner and more visually useful for classroom teachers. Especially at the lower grades, I would expect a product with Lightspeed market share and reputation to have a more user friendly experience for the teacher. More grouping, drag and drop, visual cues would help elementary teachers want to use the product more. We find only our most comfortable users taking full advantage of the product. It should be accessible to all end users equally.
> 
> Lightspeed allows easy integration with our digital catalog and gives most teachers user level control of their student's digital experience.

### "Main" — 5.0/5

> **Tyler** | *29 April 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The filtering reports, and being able to share reports with admin staff
> 
> **Cons**: The bugs, sometimes it seems kind of buggy.

### "Lightspeed" — 4.0/5

> **John** | *29 July 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: For the most part works well as a K-12 web filter. There's a good amount of features. The integration with Google allowed us to import our students pretty easily. Deployment to Chromebooks was also pretty simple. Updating data is a little slow but this isn't unique to Lightspeed and works well enough. Pricing is pretty reasonable.
> 
> **Cons**: There are a few things I wish were implemented, like an easier way for staff to whitelist sites for students that they may need for class, without having to notify the administrators about it. The Smart Play feature is interesting but has too many false positives and false negatives (but it's a hard problem). I wish reports were a little more detailed, and could be exported or shared in more pretty formats.
> 
> Overall a positive experience. Every product in this space seems to have drawbacks but overall Lightspeed has been good.

### "Happy with Lightspeed Filter\!" — 5.0/5

> **Christine** | *27 June 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As an administrator I find it easy to use and very users friendly.  I do find that many items need to be added the SSL exclusions list.  I hope this gets resolved in the future.
> 
> **Cons**: My biggest gripe is the reporting.  When I try to run a report for a user that is getting blocked from something it lags way behind and the customer is waiting too long to get a URL unblocked because I can't see the block occuring.
> 
> The benefits are safe browsing for students and staff.  I feel that the product blocks inappropriate websites and allows K-12 educational material providing a safe environment for students and educators to use the internet.
