Reception

When SaferSurf was released in 2003, the media praised its speed. Hamburger Abendblatt wrote: "Surf up to ten times faster, virus-free: that is the service offered by the company Nutzwerk. (...) Even with a slow modem connection, the data reaches its goal faster (...)"{{cite web|url=http://www.abendblatt.de/ratgeber/wissen/computer_190/article106796831/Schneller-und-sicherer-surfen.html|title= Schneller und sicherer surfen|date=2003-01-14|accessdate=2015-09-15}} Pocket PC magazine wrote: "Indeed, with the assistance of SaferSurf Speed web pages display up to three times faster (...) SaferSurf Speed works independently from any ISP and internet connection (standard modem, ISDN, DSL, mobile communications, LAN, etc.) you use."Pocket PC Magazine, Issue 9-10/2003, p. 50

Other media gave more weight to anonymity and protection. The Bild's computer magazine tested several web anonymity programs and cited "reliable anonymization" among the advantages of SaferSurf.{{cite web|url=http://www.computerbild.de/Jahresarchiv-1870404.html|title=Computer-Bild, Issue 4/2003, pp. 54, 74|date=2003-09-01|accessdate=2015-09-15|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150918222446/http://www.computerbild.de/Jahresarchiv-1870404.html|archivedate=2015-09-18}} In the same year, Macworld praised its spam-filtering service.{{cite web|url=http://www.macworld.com/article/1039983/emailspam.html|title= E-Mail Survival Guide: Win the Spam War|date=2004-10-13|accessdate=2015-09-15}}
