The Hoverwatch app has recently been named the best multi-device monitoring software according to SoftwareInReview.
It allows you to monitor Windows, Mac and Android devices' activity. Considering the explosive growth of Android popularity this direction seems to be the most promising one to follow.
How does this software work?
The user registers an account at the website and receives a login, a password and a set of software for all compatible platforms.
The user enters the login and the password during the installation process, therefore binding the target device and the account.
After that any activity for that device will be stored at the user panel at the Hoverwatch website.

SoftwareInReview covered what we believed to be the top Linux distributions in 2011. Clearly it’s time to review our findings. A lot of people did not agree with the choices, and, to be fair, it is hard to name a “best” version of Linux because the distributions are developed for many different purposes.
- Want an easy-to-use desktop?
Maybe Mint or Ubuntu are the choices for you.
- Want an enterprise server?
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLESE) have a lot of great features.
- Want a Linux distribution that lives in memory?
Puppy is a small distribution , ( with a live-CD around 85MB) that can load completely into RAM. This distribution is very fast and now makes the top ten list of visited Linux distribution sites.
- Want a Linux distribution for gaming?
SuperGamer, based on VectorLinux, is a live DVD this is written for gaming on Linux. linuX-gamers Live DVD, based on Arch Linux, is another choice.
Our list of the best Linux distributions of 2011 was the most commented-on post we have had and it stirred up a lot of debate.

The last time SoftwareInReview looked at the top Anti-Virus Programs was in 2009, so we had another look. SoftwareInReview has rated the programs according to the table below. These programs are all mature and all ranked very well in evaluation. Most notable is the emergence of free Anti-Virus programs, like the AVG Anti-Virus Free 2012. If you are looking for a free Anti-Virus program, these free products are coming closer to the commercial versions rated below, but, still not as effective as the commercial versions in our opinion.
Below you will see that we have compiled a table which shows our rating given to each Anti-Virus package as well as other information such as the price. Note - we are not in the business of selling software, so we provide links to the respective company sites.
