What did I forget now?!?!?!?

I am forgetful and the older I get the worse it gets! This is another reasons that I love the Omni’s PC Monitoring Software. A couple of weeks ago I made lunch arrangements with a friend, do you think I remembered the time or the place? No just the day. I logged on to my viewomni account and looked at the chat history and there it was. The time and the place I was to meet my friends. No one had to know that I did not remember. This is one of the less often discussed attributes of the Omni Software Suite, it can even make a forgetful person like me look good.  The Omni chat history has saved me more then once. I am so glad I have it.

Got babysitters? Then you need to monitor that PC!

We just had our first ever “non-family” babysitter for our little guy the other day.  They hit it off great and had a wonderful time by all accounts.  The babysitter was at our place for only a couple hours while our son was awake and the rest of the time he was napping.  Now when I was a babysitter, all those many years ago, it was standard for parents to let us watch TV after kids went to bed.  These days of course, the babysitters want to go online and IM their friends, check their MySpace pages, and so on.

My husband and I were very comfortable allowing our sitter access to our “guest” login on the computer because we have Omni’s PC Monitoring Software installed on our computer.  We left the house confident that any activity she did on our computer was monitored and every keystroke recorded, for our review later  if necessary.  We told her we have the PC Monitoring software, of course; full disclosure is key in our home.   We also told her (and her parents) about the Parental Controls software we have that blocks inappropriate websites.  Of course, she’s not the sort of kid to go to those sites anyway, but at least she (and her parents) knew that nothing inappropriate would come up on the computer while she was at our home.

And y’know, when we were kids, some sitters would invite boyfriends over to “hang out” for a while, taking full advantage of the lack of parental supervision at a home.  Can you imagine these days what they might try to pull up on your computer when you’re not there, without any supervision?  When I was little, I walked in on a babysitter making out with a boyfriend–I would be horrified if my son walked in on a sitter watching porn on the computer.  OmniVision PC Monitoring and OmniGuard Parental Controls add such a great level of security to your computer that you can rest easy, knowing that your sitter cannot  use your computer to view inappropriate content, and that your children won’t accidentally see it either.

Being a “Good” mom

I was talking to a friend the other night; she is a coach, a teacher and a mom.  During the conversation I told her about Omni Parental Controls and PC Monitoring.  I told her how I use the Parental Controls software to block inappropriate websites that I don’t want my kids to see and how I can view where my kids had been on line with the PC Monitoring software.  She then told me about a fellow coach who cared about his players, not just about how they did in the game, but about them as people.  He wanted them to grow into responsible adults.   He was very aware of the dangers of High School, the parties the drinking and other behaviors that are so attractive to kids, but that are so dangerous.  He took the time to keep an eye on their MySpace pages, to know what was going on in their lives.  Not only could he council them when they were hurting from a break up, but he was also aware of any parties or other dangerous situations that his girls maybe involved in.  That is the kind of coach I want for my kids.  One who cares about them and is willing to adapt to the ever changing way kids communicate.

With Omni Parental Controls and PC Monitoring, I can see the web sites my kids visit, block dangerous sites, and learn more about their interests by visiting the sites they have been to.  I want to be a great mom, and that is not easy.  Sometimes it is best to meet them in their world and build our relationship from there.  Below is a screen shot that I took of the OmniVision PC Monitoring report screen — this is what it looks like when I login and want to see what sites my kids have been on during the day.  OmniVision is SO easy to use, and gives me total details.  I love it!

OmniVision PC Monitoring Data Report Screen Shot

Need documentation for your legal battle? OmniVision reports stand up in court!

OmniVision PC Monitoring Software records EVERY keystroke, every email viewed, and every website visited on the target computer.   Not only does OmniVision record that data, but it automatically stores the data in a secure online account  and you have the ability to print hard copies or download files that show all activity in full detail.

Why is that important?  Well, maybe you are involved in a legal battle because a former boyfriend is stalking or harassing you online and you need proof .  If you have OmniVision PC Monitoring Software installed on your computer, you’ll be able to print out hard copies of the harassing emails, Facebook posts, or instant messages–even days after the events actually happened.   And since the reports are recorded by a third party monitoring system, you won’t be as vulnerable to charges from the opposition that you doctored or “made-up” the data, which is great if you need support for a legal battle.

Perhaps you need documentation for your divorce proceedings to prove that your spouse cheated on you.  Or maybe you need to prove that your spouse moved funds to a private account in an effort to “hide” the money and reduce their alimony or child support requirements.  If you are monitoring their activity with OmniVision PC Monitoring Software, you’ll have detailed reports documenting everything they do on the target computer–at your fingertips.  The list goes on….

Need to confront a loved one about an internet porn addiction?  They can deny it all they want until confronted with reports from our PC Monitoring Software that detail their addiction.   We’ve had several testimonials that once the loved one sees the detailed evidence of their addiction in front of them it serves as a wake-up call and is the first step towards admitting that they have a problem.

The same goes for a teen who you fear may have started using drugs or alcohol… With OmniVision PC Monitoring Software you can not only discover the truth, but use your child’s emails, instant messages, or other online conversations as evidence when you confront them and try to turn their life around.

Busy week, busy life, one less thing to worry about.

The OmniGuard Parental Controls blocking software is my favorite.  I trust my kids, but accidents happen and sometimes harmless searches can very quickly become … well, something to worry about.  I know my kids are safe online.

OmniGuard Parental Controls is really easy to use, just point and click.  In just a few minutes I have caught up on the computer’s activity for the day!

Protect your kids from online bullies

According to a recent blurb in the June issue of Parents Magazine, your child is much more likely to be bullied online than approached by an online sexual predator.  According to the article, which cites a report by the Internet Safety Technical Task Force, “Bullies, not sexual predators are the biggest problem for kids on the Web” with “up to 46 percent of minors reporting being bullied online, mostly by a peer they knew” compared with only 13 percent of kids who are approached by a sexual predator.

If you are concerned that your tween/teen is being bullied online but not telling you about it, our PC Monitoring software can help you.  OmniVision Software records every keystroke that occurs on the target computer–so it will record emails, MySpace and Facebook entries, Instant Message (IM) conversations… every key they type and every page they visit will be recorded.  Even if someone is bullying or harassing your child while they text during online video gaming, you will see it.

Plus, OmniVision PC Monitoring Software saves your data for two weeks (you can change settings to make it even longer) and you can print or download monitoring reports and even screen shots.   What better way to prove to the school principal or the bully’s parents that your child has been harrassed?

The OmniVision PC Monitoring Software is unique in that it allows you to access the data online, so you do not have to be on the target computer when you monitor it.  Perfect if you want to monitor what your tween/teen sees while you are at work or even for divorced parents who both want access to the data.

So, what to do once you discover your tween/teen IS being bullied?  Here is another great article that has some good advice:  What to do about an online bully

Hello from “Momni”

My name is Karen; my kids call me Momni (mom-omni) That must be how much time I spend on my Omni site!

I love knowing what is going on-on line, I can check to see what web-sites are visited, what the kids are chatting about, and know that the sites I don’t want them visiting are blocked!
