Monitoring the activities of your kids on the internet has become a necessity for parents if they want to ensure that their child is not being exposed to adult or harmful material. Nowadays, when almost everyone has a laptop or smartphone that can be used to access the internet, it is really hard for parents to keep an eye on what their kids are reading or watching when they are alone. However, the amount of control a parent should exercise has been the topic of discussion for a very long time now, and while some people believe in educating their children about what is right and what is wrong, others want to have complete control over the content their kids can access.

It also lets you monitor all the configured User Accounts from a unified interface.
