Manager Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Very easy to use, fast set up, informative, a must have for employee monitoring, and well hidden." January 19, 2018 4.0 Pros Easy to install and it catches everything. My top two favorite things about this app is the custom blocking, and the screenshot features. I, also love that the app keeps an analysis of the top domains, and activities of the targeted computers. The pie chart makes it easy to assess how employees are doing, and how often they are working vs. doing things like checking their Facebook. Cons Since I only have the free program, I can't really customize my settings as much as a paid customer can. I wish more features could be accessed for free, even if it was only for a limited time so I could determine if it's worth paying for more features or not. I also do not like that you can't easily block websites/searches by catagories, or keywords, which would make it much easier to use.
