There are times when you just need to know what is happening on your computer network, and believe it or not this is quite common. Basically you find yourself at work, or at home, and for some reason you have been put in charge of the PC monitoring software either because you are a concerned parent, or you are a network administrator. The question that you must ask now, is what type of features will you be looking for in your PC monitoring software?
--Constant updates: If you are dealing with a network situation, then you don't want to have to constantly refresh your machine to see whether or not any activity has happened. You want to be able to set a few key words or even events, and let your software work it out.
--Advance Monitoring Features: One of the problems with this software is that it sometimes does not have enough monitoring. For instance, you want to be able to view things like e-mail, chatroom dialogue, and even general use of the computer such as applications and even access to the command prompt.
--Keylogging: At the very least you should have a record of the keystrokes that have been entered into any given computer. This may not tell you much, but at the very least it will help you to figure out what is being types and when. This is a very popular feature among parents and teachers.
These are a few of the features that you may expect to find in certain keyloggers, so make sure you keep an eye out for them. Before you buy any software however, it is important for you to ensure that you are buying high quality software. Trust us when we say that there is a lot of PC monitoring software out there that doesn't work as advertised.
In order to find the right software you will need to read customer reviews and even test out different pieces of trial software. All good software should have a trial, and in all honesty you shouldn't trust any that doesn't. Also never trust software that requires a monthly fee for you to use unless it is somehow based completely online.
This is not an easy decision by any means. You have to weigh your options and make sure you are choosing the right software. What you choose may determine how well you company works in the long run, and that can be a rather tough situation. The entire situation is linked closely to overall worker productivity because if you have 200/350 workers surfing the web at any given time, you certainly won't be bringing in a profit. In any case, choosing the right software can be difficult, but in time you will find it and you will be glad you took the time.
