Community Version

In the community version of Browsermon, users have access to a limited set of features that cater to essential browser monitoring needs. This version includes specialized functionalities such as the Google Chrome Reader, Mozilla Firefox Reader, and Microsoft Edge Reader. These features empower users to monitor and analyze browsing activities on these popular web browsers, providing valuable insights into user behavior and potential security threats.

It’s important to note that while the community version offers a range of capabilities, it operates under certain limitations, including running on a single device. This constraint aligns with the community-oriented nature of the version, making it suitable for individual users seeking basic browser monitoring functionalities. The availability of these features in the community version allows users to experience the benefits of Browsermon’s capabilities while also providing an opportunity for broader adoption within various user communities.

Features

  • Comprehensive Monitoring: BrowserMon captures a rich set of 17 browsing parameters, providing a comprehensive view of browsing activities. This depth of data enables accurate analysis and informed decision-making.

  • Data Privacy: BrowserMon focuses solely on browser history and does not infringe upon broader internet activity or compromise user privacy beyond the scope of browsing data.

  • Non-Intrusive Monitoring: One of the standout benefits of BrowserMon is its non-intrusive monitoring capability. Regardless of the operating system you’re using, BrowserMon operates seamlessly behind the scenes without causing disruptions or interfering with other data on your system.
