Features
When it comes to managing your kidís time on the computer or internet Cybersitter is a great tool. Equipped with over 30 categories for cleaning up the internet, this program offers a lot of flexibility for parents looking to create a family friendly internet for their kids.
While it lacks the standard monitoring capabilities that come n the high-end monitors, version 9.0ís addition of some limited monitoring features (such as the tracking of who your kids are IMing) is a welcome improvement.
From our view,
Cybersitter 9.0 also does do a respectable job of thwarting computer savvy kids that try to get around the programs functionality.
Ease of use
It suffers a bit from being overly simple, but that certainly makes it easy to use.
Monitoring effectiveness
Version 9.0 has brought some great new features to the table. You can now monitor both sides of your kids IM conversations, and you can track all websites visited.
A little thin in terms of capabilities when compared to the other applications listed here, but at the price point it may be a worthy alternative to the more advanced programs available.
Accessibility of information
Cybersitter can be set to send email reports of the computerís activity, which isn't a great solution for many reasons, but ultimately, the only way to see the data is to be on the computer being monitored.
Customer Support
Cybersitter customer support is adequate. Wait times were respectable; questions were answered accurately.
For the price Cybersitter 9.0 isn't a bad buy but be prepared for some frustration. At times a little overzealous, you may find that some of the tamest sites on the internet get blocked.
