What is web access management?
The Internet is a vital resource for both educational institutions and corporate entities. However, it is a resource that increasingly requires careful management. Organisations are faced with a number of important dilemmas when providing students or employees access to the Internet, including costs, productivity, and bandwidth issues as well as their legal duty of care. Most organisations seek to implement an acceptable usage policy for browsing the web, but have no means to administer it. getbusi delivers an easily administered Internet usage management tool, while at the same time reducing the real costs of providing Internet access within your organisation.
Why getbusi?
getbusi provides comprehensive features within a single, elegant browser based interface that you do not need to be an IT expert to administer. getbusi provides policy based content filtering, full monitoring and reporting of web usage, caching and bandwidth management.
