WebWatcher is head and shoulders above the competition. In test after test, with a few exceptions, it never let us down. WebWatcher made us feel like we could see everything. Amazingly, it allowed us to monitor a computer from the internet, as all of the information from the computer being monitored is accessible from your own private, password-protected website. The importance of this feature simply cannot be overstated... (read more) |

The best monitoring and filtering software we have tested. It allows you to monitor a computer from the web so that you do not have to keep checking from the computer you are monitoring. |
Reliable and easy to use. You will need to access the computer you are monitoring to retrieve the recorded information but if that’s not a problem, this is a very solid choice. |
Has some great features that offer lots of control but best for computer savvy buyers only. |
Does all of the things that you would expect Parental Control software to do, and can do it remotely, but ultimately, IAmBigBrother falls a bit short of its more robust competition. |
By far the best of the stand alone filtering applications we reviewed. If you also need to monitor activity, however, this product is not for you. |

The team here at Well Researched Reviews has spent months testing keylogging software and the program that was the clear winner is called WebWatcher.
It is extremely reliable and easy to use and offers several features that are not available anywhere else. For our full review on WebWatcher,click here.
One of WebWatchers most important features is that it offers Web-based remote access. This feature really can not be overstated. What remote access means is that once the software is installed, you no longer need to physically access the computer to see what is being recorded. Many of our users are surprised when they realize that not all keylogger applications offer this feature. In fact, while some other programs claim to offer remote access, they really do not. At best, they offer emailed reports. While we'll go into more detail on emailed reports later, we recommend against emailed reports because they are not secure. Also, they are extremely cumbersome to use.
WebWatcher lets you see everything that has been recorded, pretty much in real-time (as it happens) from any computer in the world over the internet. Bottom line: you do not need to kick the person that you are trying to monitor off of the computer to see what they're doing. In addition, by being web-based, WebWatcher allows you to monitor as many computers as you want from one central login. Without using a web-based application, you would have to physically go from machine to machine to check what is being recorded on each machine. That makes remote access a very important feature in our estimation, and is one of the many reasons why we've crowned WebWatcher as our champion.
With WebWatcher, to see what has been recorded, all you do is log into your online account. All of the emails, IMs, keystrokes, etc will be there waiting for you. Everything is beautifully displayed and easy to find.
Another key component which has landed WebWatcher at the top of our heap is its invisibility. According to their site, WebWatcher was originally designed for use in counterterrorism, which is why their product is invisibility had to be so top-notch. We are inclined to believe them after trying our best to find any trace of the application without any luck. If invisibility is important to you, you can rest assured WebWatcher will meet your needs.
In addition to an unparalleled level of invisibility, WebWatcher is the only program to perform an anti-virus/anti-Spyware scan to insure the software is not detected and then disabled. This was very important to us as every other program we tested was ultimately detected and disabled, some within seconds.
As an added bonus, WebWatcher comes standard with a full-featured suite of Internet blocking and filtering tools that are as good as anything that we've seen, even at the Enterprise level. They offer three types of blocking (more detail can be found in the review here):
- Category Blocking (automatically updated frequently)
- Content Filtering
- White Listing
With their category blocking, you don't have to add sites by hand and they have the largest list of inappropriate sites available from any consumer application.
As mentioned, customer support was a huge factor in our reviews, and WebWatcher really shines in this area. They offer 24/7 support - and claim to be reachable in 60 seconds or less through their live chat feature. Occasionally, it took a bit longer but we never had to wait for more than two minutes. Plus, as far as we have seen, they're the only software company to offer free phone, email and live chat support. Add 24/7 coverage on top of that, and you've got a real gem. This is definitely not a company trying to hide from their customers.
