Professeur E-Learning Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Glasswire is your eye in your computer" August 18, 2020 4.0 Good but I can't it's expensive so my experience was limited Pros the graph show us a good informtion for windows or mobile both are great Cons to have to pay for features I would like to have all the features at least in one computer for free foreverer Reason for choosing GlassWire I like the tools and the information I would like to see Glasswire improve their product Review Source SR Shaikat R. CEO Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Excellent Network Monitoring Tool" January 19, 2023 5.0 Overall an excellent network monitoring tool for PC and Android users. Pros Glasswire is an excellent network firewall and security tool for Windows PC users. It's very easy to set up and user-friendly. The UI is also so beautiful. Only the free plan will do a great job in terms of security, and they have a 7-day free trial for the premium features. If you want a full-proof firewall system, you can upgrade to the premium plan, and for multiple licenses, you can have decent discounts. Cons Nothing bad about Glasswire. But they only support Windows and Android. They should consider developing it for Mac and iOS.

Cons not always easy to interpret deeper levels of information available - need to know what to look for. Review Source Carlos M. Desarrollador web Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Useful but not" November 14, 2018 4.0 Glasswire let you see your main PC problems in a easy to understant graph, for me, as a computer tech in not very useful as I know how to manage my own pc and Task manager helps me almost in the same way thats why I prefer use it one and disable it, because having it working will slow down your pc a little. I feel this program is useful for people that need to check thing at least once each month, if you do, go and get it! Pros Great for checking your computer Easy to use and understand Colourful and great designed Cons Task manager almost do the same After checking it for a few days in the most of the cases you wont use it again until you have any problem Another program you dont need that is slowing down your pc Review Source EG Eric G.

It requires some technical knowledge. Review Source Bob K. President Computer Networking Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Saved me Thousands of Dollars!" November 21, 2018 5.0 As a company that pays for bandwidth on our hosted virtual servers, we were paying a high price and felt they were over charging us. After using Glasswire to monitor the traffic, it was determined that it was not our software using the data but the hosting company's own monitoring of the servers. We proved this to them with Glasswire and out data usage bill went down by 300% saving us hundreds of ever month. Pros Monitoring of data use in and out of servers. Measuring of bandwidth Cons No cons. so far this software has done what it said. Review Source SM Steven M. Infrastructure and Networks Mgr Mechanical or Industrial Engineering Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Glasswire Gives you insight" August 18, 2020 5.0 Bottleneck Pros Ease of use and graphic representation of traffic type.

Retired Civic & Social Organization Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great product - great for home user" August 18, 2020 5.0 Good product for assessing network performance on my device Pros This product is great for seeing who (program) is using network and when Cons I have not had difficulty with it, works as specified.

October 21, 2020 4.0 I’ve put this on my roommates laptop and every time he makes me mad, its so fun to remotely block his applications that he uses every day Pros I like how the full functionality is within the tabs on the top of the screen, very easy and useful interface Cons One thing I wish had more functionality is the firewall. It’s an application firewall that’s to be in conjunction with your OS firewall, It would be cool if it had more integration with it and included ports that could be blocked or filtered out.

Operator Publishing Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "This is the best software for specific uses that I have ever come across. I use it constantly, daily" June 26, 2017 5.0 My internet data usage has been extremely excessive - impossibly excessive - and I searched for software that would enable me to keep track of my internet usage and found Glasswire. To my absolute amazement, Glasswire not only does what I sought but does so much more and I continue to discover new useful aspects about it. It is in constant use on my computer, every day. When I say 'wow', I mean it. Pros This software puts you in control of computer internet data usage and provides you with very detailed, ongoing information. Review Source George C. Network manager Banking Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "GlassWire review" October 20, 2020 4.0 Pros The ease way to watch companies and were they are. Cons I can't think any present. I like the graphs.... Review Source NP Nathan P. Young Adult & Communications Pastor Religious Institutions Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "A great tool with an actually usable UI" December 21, 2017 5.0 Pros This is an app that does what it says it will do, for free. And the UI doesn't look like it belongs on Windows 95 like many other free apps in this space do. Great tool for quick analytics into your network. Cons On Windows, there is a process that is running in the background even after you close the app. I'm sure there's a good reason, but I always close it. Review Source JH Jonathan H. Used the software for: ### "Very Useful Product" January 13, 2017 5.0 The ability to stop software from connecting to the internet and the ability to watch for spikes in data usage from my computer is very useful. Pros Ability to block software from connecting to the internet is very nice. The notifications you get each time a software has a new version number and is trying to connect to the internet is wonderful. Also the well designed interface is a joy to use. Cons No cons, I'm just really pleased with the software. Review Source MT Martino T. CEO Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "See easily your network activity " October 6, 2019 4.0 Overall i was very happy with these software and i will recommend it to everyone. Pros Glasswire is very user-friendly and very powerful. At the same time it can be used by anyone due to the super simple and neat user interface. Cons It lacks some pro-user features which you would expect from a firewall and network managing software but i think they will add these features in the future.

Pros \- Easy to use - Full control - very good display Cons I don´t have anything against its use. Maybe if I intensify its use. Review Source
