I don't know if that would be technically possible, but it would be a great features to get the Hostname or the Username of the Roaming Client in the block page notice email.

What we would love to see is the ability to send the Site Secret Key and other optional values directly with the MDM Profile to the Mac the same way we do it with iPadOS and iOS (see screenshot). Like this we could skip the Deployment script and just push the package to the Mac the same way we normally distribute software. It would also be very convenient for the scoping of different sites. Then we could use the same install policy for all Macs and would just have to create different MDM Profiles for different device groups.

Can we have a roaming client toggle switch that allows end users to disconnect from DNSfilter temporarily to troubleshot internet connectivity issues such as captive portals. The toggle switch should be enforced through a policy where if it is turned off, it will turn back on after a few minutes (as set by the administrator). This will help with frequent travellers who are unable to connect to airport/airline wifi due to DNS conflicts, allow them connect and push them back onto the DNSFilter policy.

Create an alert when a policy has been modified and/or changed.

The only option currently is to show domains that contain a certain word. The option to show domains that don't contain a certain word would be helpful.

The notes feature is appreciated, but it could use some additional enhancements to improve overall function: 1) Allow editing of notes on existing list entries. 2) If a new entry raises the 'CNAME' workflow (where additional domains are recommended & added alongside the initial domain), apply any notes from the original entry to the CNAME entries as well. 3) Allow for notes entry from the 'inline' allow/block function on the Domain Query tool.

Usage reports for individual users and groups. Data on usage habits over the past 7, 14, 30, and 60 days. Metrics for daily/average first and last time a user is active, to estimate when the user is online/offline during the day. This feature would allow for more detailed visibility into user activity and usage trends, improving reporting capabilities for DNSFilter users.

Currently, notifications are sent only to the Owner email identified in the DNSFilter dashboard. The customer is asking for the ability to send notifications to additional email addresses to ensure more team members are alerted about important updates, such as "Action Required: Prepare Macs for Upcoming Roaming Client Update." Current Limitation: DNSFilter only allows sending notifications to a single email address (the Owner email). Desired Outcome: Customers should have the option to set multiple recipients for these notifications or have the ability to designate additional email addresses for specific alert types.

Several of our customers give us instructions on who they want to have as the point of contact, and only that person can request changes to the DNS Filter. It would be helpful if there was a way to jot down those instructions in each customer's profile, then have that note come up as a full-screen notice that you have to click out of, as soon as you select the customer. Of course, if there are no instructions, the page shouldn't come up. Currently there's no way to jot down notes or instruction per customer anywhere in DNS Filter, and looking somewhere else for those instructions ends up becoming a trained habit, but it's much harder to get everyone to follow along with. Even if there were, the helpful part would be primarily in the pop-up note that comes up, because otherwise you could easily gloss over the note that was written down.
