Windows Software Usage Tracking & Reporting
Application monitoring provides insights into the time that your users spend using software, allowing you to understand the most commonly used applications for each user, device, and department in your organization.
Fight Shadow IT
Unauthorized computer programs aren’t being managed by the IT department, increasing the potential for a costly data breach caused by illicit data exfiltration and insecure programs.
App Sprawl
The average cost of unused computer software (‘shelfware’) is $259 per desktop. By monitoring application usage you can clearly see the programs that are actually used in your company and which ones can be decommissioned.
Software Asset Management
Floating licenses offer much-needed flexibility, but they can lead to users not having access to the software they need when application demand spikes. Determine if users are launching programs they don’t need or if more licenses need to be purchased.

Internet Bandwidth Usage Reports
Streaming a 4K Ultra HD Netflix video consumes 7GB of data per hour. Users that misuse the internet in their workplace aren’t only harming their own productivity, they also strain the available bandwidth and increase network latency.
Reduce Latency
Slow internet speeds caused by bandwidth abuse reduce the effectiveness of your workforce through dropped VoIP/video conferencing connections, longer wait times to access critical resources, and internet connection loss from excessive overload on network hardware.
Save Money
Bandwidth consumption history reports allow you to strategically plan investments in upgrades to networking hardware. With bandwidth consumption insights you have the data you need to determine if upgrades are truly necessary.
Detect Malware
Monitor for bandwidth spikes that are caused by dangerous torrenting websites and malware that turns endpoint devices into botnets or rigs for unauthorized cryptocurrency mining (‘cryptojacking’).
