Best Free Keylogger

Softonic review

A comprehensive monitoring software

Best Free Keylogger is a free-to-download security program from Bestxsoftware. From recording keystrokes to tracking clipboard activity, it helps you keep an eye on your children’s and employees’ behavior — including their online activity and the applications they opened and closed — when using the computer. This protects children from predators and prevents productivity losses in the workplace.

Some users, however, may be concerned about the privacy and legalities of running Best Free Keylogger. Though legal because you have administrative rights or own your computer, take note that this program should not be used for undertaking criminal activities.

Track user activity

In addition to its keylogging and clipboard-tracking capabilities, Best Free Keylogger also has the ability to take screenshots at an interval, so admins can see if you’re sneaking a peek at your Facebook account, watching YouTube videos, or accomplishing your tasks. Able to document applications and URLs as well as who and when they were accessed, this program helps computer owners check for unproductivity and potentially inappropriate websites.

As log reports contain information on a user’s behavior, encrypting them with a strong “Private Key” is vital in safeguarding them from data theft and unauthorized access. Also, provided that the reports are in portable HTML file format, administrators will be able to view them from the convenience of their browser. Plus, the app allows for the backup and auto-deletion of logs.

Thanks to its “Scheduled Monitoring” system, you don’t have to track your users’ computer activity 24/7. With this feature, you can set a time range on when the program will monitor and not monitor user behavior. The application has two versions: lite and pro. In addition to all the features included in the former, the latter also boasts an invisible mode, additional delivery options, and many more.

For employers and parents

Despite the ethical and legal concerns surrounding monitoring tools, Bestxsoftware’s Best Free Keylogger offers everything you need to keep track of user behavior — from its monitoring schedule system to log report creation and encryption. Not only is this tool designed for businesses to ensure workplace productivity, but it is also aimed at parents who want to shield their children from inappropriate content.

Definitely one of the best keyloggers I've tried so far. Smart read is a very useful feature. If you turn it on you can actually see keystrokes as a readable line without other keywords like space. More

Good thing that it's actually free...It's not a trial version so you can use it as long as you want it. you get all the monitoring features of a pro version and that's more than enough for general use.If you want remote monitoring you have to upgrade to the pro version tho. But at lest it won't force you to pay after a few days like most of the other one's out there. More
