Safe Eyes
Detailed Internet Filter Software
$49.95
This is another product that offers some very nice features. We liked the Detailed History Reporting especially. Again, the price here is just too steep for the package offered.
With Safe Eyes you get many blocking features and filter features for email, chat, IM and even newsgroup blocking. Also you receive Detailed History Reporting so you can keep tabs on a user's activities.
Filtering Capabilities
In our filter tests this product performed well. We planted graphic material in email and that was blocked by Safe Eyes. Offensive chat remarks were blocked as well. However, we found the Email Blocking feature to overblock mail at times. When we tried to view blocked emails, the process was quite inconvenient even with an administrator's password.
Usability
Overall, this program is easy to use, with the exception of overblocking at times.
Installation
We had no problems installing Safe Eyes.
Summary
We don't recommend this product because, though the features are effective, you can find the same package for less money. Check out our top picks.
