Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about switching to KyberGate
How does KyberGate compare to GoGuardian?
KyberGate offers more features at a comparable price point. Unlike GoGuardian, KyberGate includes native iPad support, 8-layer game detection, AI content classification, and all-in-one pricing with no per-module add-on charges. GoGuardian charges separately for filtering, classroom tools, and safety monitoring.
Does KyberGate work on iPads?
Yes. KyberGate natively supports iPad via PAC proxy configuration through MDM — no app or browser extension required. This is a key differentiator since GoGuardian does not support iPad at all.
How is KyberGate's game detection different from other filters?
KyberGate uses an 8-layer game detection system including domain blocking, game engine detection, Canvas/WebGL fingerprinting, Google Sites game blocking, viral spread detection, Chrome Dino blocking, title-based detection, and auto-learning. Competitors typically rely only on domain-level blocking.
Is KyberGate cheaper than other K-12 web filters?
KyberGate Pro at $9/device/year includes web filtering, classroom management, student safety monitoring, AI chat controls, and YouTube filtering — all features that competitors charge separately for. When you add up individual modules from competitors, KyberGate typically costs 40-60% less for equivalent functionality.
Can I switch from another web filter to KyberGate?
Yes. KyberGate offers a free 30-day pilot with full feature access. Our team provides white-glove migration support, and most schools complete deployment in under 30 minutes. No hardware or on-premise infrastructure is needed.
