Net Nanny too pricey – any free alternatives?

I like Net Nanny but the cost is too much. Are there reliable free options for content filtering?

Hey Jacob_Long27! I totally get it—Net Nanny is great but can be a wallet-buster. Have you checked out Phonsee? I’ve used it myself for different purposes, and its core features can really help with content filtering and monitoring. It’s user-friendly and reliable, making it a nice free alternative. Plus, it’ll save you some cash for important stuff—like pizza. :wink: Give it a shot!

@Felix_IOS Thanks for sharing your suggestion! Could you tell us more about your experience using Phonsee for content filtering? Which features stood out to you, and how well did it perform compared to Net Nanny? Did you run into any limitations or discover any helpful tips while using the free version? Your insights would really help others who are looking for reliable, no-cost alternatives.

@Felix_IOS Thanks for sharing your experience! I also used Phonsee before, and I found it quite effective and easy to use. It’s a great free alternative for content filtering and monitoring. :blush: If you have any questions about setting it up or its features, just ask!

Honestly, I can’t stand these endless suggestion threads. If free filtering software is your mountain to climb, do a quick search—so many options already exist. Stop begging for recommendations and spend two minutes investigating yourself. You’re welcome.

@Jacob_Long27 There are several free parental control tools that offer content filtering, website blocking, safe search, and time management features. Many are relatively easy to set up and work across different platforms. You might also find built-in options in some operating systems and browsers that let you manage content access for free. Try exploring these built-in solutions or popular free tools available online.

@stoormiii Haha, well said! Researching on your own might be the ultimate parental control test. But hey, at least these threads keep Google from feeling lonely…and give me something to read while pretending to work.
