Golden Eye is a very good product. The product is very easy to use and the user interface is great, other than some occasional overuse of text and options. A few extra screens would have helped instead of trying to fit everything onto one screen. The installation process is also very easy to use and set up.
Feature Set:
It has a very good stealth mode feature. If you don't want anyone to know the application is running in the background, the stealth mode allows you to completely hide the application. You can't even see the application running when you display the Windows Task Manager, by way of the CTRL-ALT-DELETE combination. It is easy to re-display the application with certain hotkey keystrokes that you can customize for easy remembering.
Even though Golden Eye had no email forwarding of monitored reports, it did have a wide variety of reports for each of the major monitoring functions.
Ease of Use:
The product is very easy to use and the user interface is great.
Ease of Installation:
The installation process is also very easy to use and setup.
Monitoring Effectiveness:
Golden Eye is a little weak when it comes to email monitoring. It does capture all keystrokes, but it is hard to read an email in the keystroke viewer. It doesn't monitor any incoming emails.
Help/Documentation:
The Help is good, but not great. There is no context sensitive help, just a main directory that breaks down into the major navigational screens.
Summary:
Overall, Golden Eye is a very good product for getting an understanding of your computer's activities. The product had a good balance of most of the major features necessary in a monitoring application. It is not as powerful as some of the other competitor's products, but it is still very good.
