I'm actually using Glasswire. This tool is insanely helpful. I've been using it for years. It served me very well.

Glasswire has been in the game for a long time. It's a great software to have especially if you don't want to deal with deploying pfSense and doing the nitty gritty work of setting it up. It'll be good for those home and SMBs that don't want to hire a fulltime IT. So yeah I say it's fine.

@CPotter You could also add this video from Barnacles to the OP. This is how I got to know the software.

Only 10% and less than 10% of my ram. It has work great for me, I found if you disable some features such as data usages and other other log will decrease the ram/cpu usage. 

 

I have been using this since i upgraded to window 10, great tool tracking my usages and also really easy to block applications and IP etc.

I use Glasswire personally and I find it a very useful and easy to use. I can use it to monitor what apps are using all my data, how much I have used, block connections. Its great and just works for free! :D

Like if you liked it. Share it if you thought it was great. Leave a reply if you emotions are a bit more complicated   ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

(This is just me complaining about the poll)

Uhh.. These answer choices aren't great.  The 3rd choice sayd that we haven't heard of Glasswire, but have used it.  Which I guess is possible if you've never looked at the name while using it.

And the 4th choice means we haven't heard of Glasswire, but have heard they're bad.

There also isn't just a plain no answer.  I just put the idk choice since that was the closest.

The poll should probably be separated to 2 polls.

(Random person complaint over)

I agree, and think this should have been better organized.  Also, maybe if there was a Turnip option, I could express my feelings even better.

I am not signing.  This is a scam.  You don't get my signature.

There, now you got it. Go away.

@Sir Jun Just re-read it now, that is terrible. First poll, my bad..

@CPotter, your poll doesn't actually have a, "No, I've never heard of them, nor have I used then."

I use Glasswire, is solid software, i like it mostly because its easier to see wants going in and out, rather than normal packet sniffing.
