Hi @Mr_Awol - thank you for taking the time to reply and provide your thoughts on the products, it's great when people engage with our company, processes and products.

I wanted to offer some reassurances on a couple of your comments, it's great you raised them on this forum to be discussed.

"assuming it tracks (as it appeared) all open windows and not just the main/selected one."
The product's actually clever enough to only track the active window, ie. the one you are working in. That's the beauty of the solution, we know that you're often in and out of 5+ programs and keeping track of that is hard.

"when I get a phone call, go to lunch, pop into a client meeting for ten minutes (which could turn into an hour) etc my computer will, I assume, still be merrily clocking up time to whichever poor client I had on screen last."
There are a number of user configurable options in this area. Such as 'Minimum minutes before being considered inactive'. Also when you get back from lunch a message will pop up asking if you want to post time or discard time.
There is a manual 'stop watch' function as well as the auto-timer.

If you'd like to take a look in further detail and let us know any other areas of improvements, please feel to get in touch as I'd be happy to help out.
All the best

Hosted desktops offer protection

Hi all

An interesting article with surprising results.

We have recently written a post on the website reviewing a Gartner report focussed on how a virtual hosted desktop will offer an organisation protection.

Please follow the link to read about Hosted Desktop Security

I hope you enjoy the read.

Congratulations

I know the team at Linden House very well. It's really great news for them and a reflection of the effort they've been putting in to their software development and customer care for all these years.

A great bit of kit

I recently wrote a blog about using my Samsung Galaxy S2 to create a personal WiFi hotspot and connect to a hosted desktop and run accounts production software via 3G - the results are surprising!!
