Description
Webskape Browser is an Internet browser for public use that can be locked down to make browsing the Internet secure and the operating system tamper proof. The browser can be set up for touch screens or normal screens with a keyboard. The Internet sites you wish to be available can be white listed or the sites you wish to block can be blacklisted. Filters can be trained and Web sites can be connected to find all the outgoing links.
Review
If you need a browser you can lock down for operating a kiosk, directing employee orientation, or other tasks requiring a finite range of Web pages, you'll want to take a look at this app.
Webskape Browser offers a simple, uncluttered interface (a viewing pane with a minimal number of essential buttons located in the top bar of its frame) that you may customize to suit your needs. Its dialog boxes, which open on launch, provided excellent directions for customizing the browser's appearance and setup for lockdown use. Quickly altering its settings was simple. We liked its options for timing out to shut down and resetting to its home page. And its connectivity features should suit nearly anyone's needs. However, we were surprised that with all its configurable features for blacklisting, whitelisting, and providing a secure browser setup, the app didn't give us the option of deciding where to install it during the installation process.
Anyone needing a controlled browser will find Webskape Browser a robust solution. The demo period is generous, giving you plenty of time to see if this app suits your needs.
