The categorize formula is very helpful. Previously, we used the Cisco solution, where we could not choose how sites are categorized. Blue Coat updated a lot of sites I categorized. There are other valuable features as well, such as block by location, block by IP, allow by IP, and block by user name, domain, or group domain.

The most valuable feature is the caching technology. It makes the customer's job very simple and reduces bandwidth also.

Other factors that make it the number one choice are web categorization, web filtering, web caching, and bandwidth allocation.

The content filters and SSL encryption are the most valuable features of this solution.
