Unless you have adult children that knows almost all IM providers the Spy Agent can still be reliable.

However if you have more advance children they might work their way out. Spy agent will leave no trace in task manager, add or remove program menu bars but can be seen in the program folders.

It can also help you discipline your children not to open their PCs during study time and will catch sneaking kids who are checking their mails way pass their bedtime. This feature can be set too to prohibit your children’s usage once you’re not around.

One of the many features that Spy Agent has is the keylogger feature that allows any parent to see everything that their children types. This enables you to know if your children have multiple social networking accounts and check their usernames and passwords.

SmartLogging

It is also correlated to its smartlogging features that automatically screen shots offline and online activities by the aid of trigger keyword or phrase statements. As a parent this will leave you relaxed as don’t have to read all irrelevant information. It will only focus on phrases that you think are with your utmost lookout.

However, not all software has everything to offer. One of its laid back features is its capability to remotely monitor your kids anywhere at any given time. You can only avail this feature if you avail their secondary program at a different cost. Hence, if you don’t want to spend more the only way you can check your kids activity will be with the same computer you are scrutinizing with.

At any given cost parents have undoubtedly are willing to shell off for their children’s safety, discipline and internet usage etiquette. Statistics show that more and more children are being hooked and addicted to different internet vices that parents sometimes will never know and discover. But thanks to software like Spy Agent we can now control and monitor our children’s internet activities at the snap of our fingers.
