NetXactics, the local WebSpy distributor, has released WebSpy Analyzer 2.0, WebSpy`s latest Internet monitoring and management tool for the small to medium enterprise (SME) market.
WebSpy Analyzer is the first Internet monitoring and productivity tool of its kind to concentrate on the unique needs of the SME market, including ease of use and inexpensive licensing. When considering their monitoring and reporting requirements, these mid-sized businesses have traditionally been forced to rely on trust or spend many thousands of rands on packages designed for much larger enterprises.
By focusing development on a cost-effective, yet comprehensive and easy to use analysis tool for managers who may not be skilled in IT, WebSpy Analyzer 2.0 is a solution that can save organisations millions of rands annually.
In light of the current economic climate, and the need for businesses to maximise productivity, WebSpy Analyzer 2.0 includes a number of reports to help managers calculate the cost of Internet usage.
New reports in the latest version enable an accurate summary of user sessions based on profiling. These new features allow for the rapid identification of trouble areas, so that managers can take quick action against costly time wasting.
"The latest release of WebSpy Analyzer is an innovative tool designed with small to medium-sized businesses in mind," says Cornel Swart, National Sales Manager of NetXactics. "Instead of urging businesses to spend thousands of rands on restrictive, unnecessary software, Analyzer offers a solution that is inexpensive and powerful, allowing managers to take charge of Internet resources. In summary, it`s effective, simple to use and quick to roll-out."
While WebSpy Analyzer is ideal for the SME market due to its pricing, it can just as easily be deployed in large corporations along with the various add-on modules available from WebSpy.
Major enhancements to the latest version of WebSpy Analyzer include the addition of a task function, which allows users to schedule the importing, reporting and distribution of data. The software is also able to report on mail tracking logs, such as Microsoft Exchange, MDaemon, Send Mail and Novell GroupWise to provide detailed information on e-mail utilisation.
With the various add on modules available from WebSpy, any network configuration from the smallest to the largest can be monitored.

WebSpy Analyzer is a cost-effective monitoring solution for network Internet usage. Analyzer provides network administrators and managers of small to medium-sized businesses with the information they need to implement and police a company`s Internet Acceptable Usage Policy. Analyzer interrogates the data contained in log files generated by third-party solutions such as proxy servers or firewalls, and allows the user to either navigate through the information or create reports on predefined parameters, such as those defined in an Acceptable Usage Policy. The application`s strength lies in its ability to produce comprehensive yet easy to understand and produce reports in a minimum of time and with limited computer resources.
Some of the new features in this release include:
* Improved reporting engine;
* Cost calculations;
* Task scheduling for "set and forget" data analysis;
* Highlighting of failed hits in red to indicate that they weren`t successful;
* Filtering of data on log import to save time spent loading unnecessary data;
* Addition of a new monthly summary for long term archival reports;
* Addition of user sessions into the data analysis;
* Productivity tables in reporting; and
