Web Filter for CIPA Compliance

I was curious what filtering solutions others have been using for CIPA compliance. We've currently been using a service provided by our firewall, but it's a bit pricey. We have less than 30 computers we need it available for. Right now OpenDNS through TLN seems to be my leading option, but I was curious if anybody had any opinions on what's worked for them. Thanks!

We have uses OpenDNS for years now and it's been reliable (as in it has never gone down) and easy to manage. Highly recommended!
