URL Redirect
Josh Antonucci
The option to redirect (or block) a specific URL request.
For example, instead of simply seeing that "facebook.com" is blocked, the user is forwarded to "workplace.com", the version of Facebook that is used by the company.
Or perhaps you have a customer / vendor with something unnecessary... like tracking and a survey in every email signature that causes a problem; or a website containing auto-play videos that aren't good for a user's slower connection. You can identify/block that specific request without blocking their entire website.

Separate AppAware File Sharing Category into Business and Non-Business Uses
Brian Zick
It would be helpful to have to categories here, one for commonly used business sites like Box, Dropbox, ShareFile, etc. and one for less common or more personal use sites like BitTorrent Client, Mega, NZB.su, TPB, etc.

Block same email providers (personal vs corporate)
Mayur
Only corporate email accounts should be able to access emails. Personal email accounts should be blocked for the same provider. This functionality doesn't exist and is a gap for compliance.

Come on guys - Zorus even has that feature built-in.

Richard Delaney: Appreciate the feedback. I'm wondering if this might be a future use case as we develop URL Filtering - https://dnsfilter.canny.io/feature-requests/p/transparent-url-filtering. I'll bring it to the team for discussion.

DNS is not the right tool for the job. You would need a proxy server between your users and the internet. Then write a custom rule to block files by extension. I don't recommend doing that. It would break the internet. Browers need to download files so they can be rendered to the user.
If you are using a windows domain server. Take a look at GP to limit your users. blocking file downloads in Edge using Group Policy is possible.
Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Classic Administrative Templates > Microsoft Edge - Default Settings > Allow download restrictions

Bumping this. This would be helpful for us in terms of Security and IT. Driving users toward the app they "should" be using and helping with migrations, etc.
