Positive, it has enabled us to gain a better view of the students and their use of the IT Network and has also enabled our safeguarding team to intervene when necessary

Pros

The eSafety feature, it is very responsive and has enabled us to clamp down on the students when they are searching inappropriate terms. The ability to have multiple languages as well, is a must for us as our school has students who speak several different ones.

Cons

How sensitive the emails are. Sometimes, keywords are flagged that doesn't need to be flagged, but we have managed to alter the settings and so far it is working great

Have been using DNA for several years and it makes Network management so much easier. Support and help guides are superb.

Pros

Ease of use, very well laid out interface. Software deployment is straight forward and easy to manage. Safeguarding tools are excellent.

Cons

Ability to select 'favourites' in the PC's tab would be useful. Easy way to uninstall applications rather than having to create an uninstall package. Neither of these are major problems, just nice-to-have's.

Note - we used RM CC4 before, but that option is NOT on the list. Wanted a clean break from RM CC4 to gain control and flexibility of our Network.

Overall, my experience has been good. Support has been quick to help when I've needed. We originally kept all of assets in a spreadsheet. Moving to this system was great because now we can see at a glance what we have and how its all running and gives you the options to drill down and run reports.

Pros

What we liked most about the service was all of the information you get and you don't have to go to each individual machine. You can see logins and logouts, computer resources, lists of running applications, and you can even block USB drives from being plugged in and run on certain computers.

Cons

Installation wasn't very straight forward. I had tried myself and failed and had to contact support so that they could remote in and set everything. The same also happened on the last update. One function that I would have loved to used but can't was the mobile app for scanning QR codes and bring up the computer info. It's been almost a year and the developers aren't sure why it's not working.

Hardware and software monitoring and alerts.

Pros

I like the customization alerts on the product. It is not only easy to see the hardware that is on our network, but the software installed as well.

Cons

The only thing I would like to see the product do is show a profile of a user while logged in. Mainly mapped drives.

Pros

Easy to network to users. I liked the ability to "see" what they see. Was able to use the software to teach users how to navigate network and use features of specific software. Easy to access information about our systems as we moved in-house networking to a remote service.

Cons

We are a small company (under 20 users). Many features included in software were not applicable to us. Navigating through all the features to see what was applicable was confusing at first.

Hardware and Software inventory plus system alerts for any changes

This is a much have software in any company no matter the size and especially when combined with Microsoft Active Directory.

Cons

It has some lag due to the Database response when have too much time unattended. impossible to delete an registered PC client that don't belong to the organization anymore.

Data about my environment.

Pros

I like that DNA gives me a lot of information that I need and not too much of the stuff I don't. Keep it simple. We are mostly using it to track inventory of hardware and software, easy to take a quick look of browsing activity (better than my firewall), The USB lockdown is simple to setup and use. This is one of the best tools in this category that I have found and used.

Cons

Reports can be a little tricky to create or figure out, not as intuitive as the rest of the software. However this is my go-to tool for general data in my environment.

It's a great companion software for any tech support shop. It's great to have all that information on your users at your fingertips.

Pros

The ability to pull up any PC and get an in depth report on software, hardware, what they are browsing on the web and even what they are doing right now.

Cons

Updates are little cumbersome on the server and client. Reporting is ok but not having the option to create a custom report with the data you want to see is a bit annoying, shouldn't be stuck with just the default reporting queries.
