Advantages:- Nice-looking, user-friendly interface
- High stealthness rate
- Multi- OS support
- Configurable self-removal
- Ability to record sounds
Disadvantages:- Low functionality
- No file activity monitoring
- One-side chat interception
New Eltima’s monitoring product produces contradictory impression after its testing. The installation process is easy and clear and the first thing that arrests the attention is the function, no other product in our testing possesses, namely ‘Configurable self-removal’.
The first thing that bursts upon eyes after finishing the installation process is pleasant to look at, comprehensible interface that is also peculiar to another Eltima’s monitoring product Powered Keylogger. Intercepted information is grouped into categories for convenient viewing, searching of how to turn on or off a particular function takes little time - everything is simple and logically arranged. High stealthiness rate of Advanced Keylogger is also worth praising –program’s files can be found neither in the Task Manager, nor on the disc, nor anywhere else.
Nevertheless, along with all the pluses of the product it has a series of essential minuses that can all be united under the common title - ‘Low functionality’. While absence of such functions as ‘System inactivity time recording’ and ‘Email interception’ is natural as the majority of keyloggers do not have them implemented, such functions as ‘Mouse-clicks recording’ and ‘Started applications monitoring’ are widespread. Unfortunately we haven’t found them in Advanced Keylogger. Additionally, we should also note the low interception in browsers (only web-links in IE were recorded) and total absence of file-activity monitoring. As to chat-interception this is not the strongest point of Advanced Keylogger – for all the five chats only one-sided interception is possible.
We found only some filtering options in Advanced Keylogger, namely: 'Events duration', ‘Automated clearance of a log-file’; what also cannot but disappoint is the absence of such a trivial function as ‘Search by keywords’. As for the ‘Visual surveillance’ the product takes the middle position – it intercepts neither more nor less than the major part of monitoring products.
Summing up we can say that Advanced Keylogger will come in handy for all the users who value stealthiness, high usability and attractive design, but pay less attention to the functionality.
Description from developers
Advanced Keylogger is an absolutely invisible keylogger and powerful surveillance tool, which now can offer total control over computer activity. This key logger works in a stealth mode, which means that it is completely undetectable in Windows Task Manager and there's no visual proof of Advanced Keylogger running. With its advanced functionality and user-friendly interface, this key logger has all you need to track down child activity (parental control) on the Internet, check your spouse or monitor your employees. Advanced Keylogger proves to be a perfect keylogger with many useful features and simple in use.
Everything typed in your computer cannot be hidden from Advanced Keylogger! Advanced Keylogger records every keystroke, including Windows passwords and logins. All activities are stored in encrypted easy-to-understand logs. It can also secretly send reports to your e-mail address.
This key logger monitors the Internet activity effectively by logging all web-pages the user visits. Another very important feature of Advanced Keylogger is that it records visual statistics of everything happening on the screen periodically taking screenshots what is on.
Advanced Keylogger also monitors texts copied and cut to the clipboard, which is extremely important as most passwords are inserted not by typing but by pasting from the clipboard.
