Retina-X Studios was founded in 1997. They started as a wWb consulting and design firm. Several years later in 2003, after developing a variety of monitoring products for outside companies, Retina-X Studios began to create the software products under its own brand name. Today, Retina-X Studios provides professional computer software in more than 150 countries.
One of their more popular products is PhoneSheriff. According to the press, it is the next generation of parental control software for mobile phones. It can filter, block and monitor how your child uses their mobile phone. The software can record user activities such as SMS text messages, call information and GPS locations.
On April 4, 2013 in Jacksonville, FL, Retina-X Studios announced their latest update, PhoneSheriff for Business. It is a bundled package that will allow businesses to save money. $199.95 will get your company a five license bundle. The other option would be to purchase individual packages at $249.85 each.
According to Retina-X Studios’ media coordinator, Craig Thompson “Businesses often distribute phone to their employees, especially those who are out in the field. Our PhoneSheriff for Business give those businesses the opportunity to take advantage of everything the software has to offer and will now save them money as they do it.”
PhoneSheriff is a mobile spy software program that has won several awards in the past couple of years. PhoneSheriff for Business is basically the same program with the exception that the bundle package allows companies to save money while monitoring their enterprise phones. The concept behind the spy software is to ensure that the business phone is being used for business. The program keeps tabs on the phones that are provided to employees.
Thompson went on to say, “Any business that wants to ensure their employees are doing the right thing with company issued phones will have the benefit from this mobile spy program. It gives people an opportunity to keep an eye on what employees are doing, even when they are working outside of the office.”
Some of the features that are included with PhoneSheriff for Business are;
- Full control options that allow employers to place filters, blocks, and to monitor all activity conducted with the phone. Particular apps or Web browsing can be restricted, and SMS/calls can be blocked.
- A way to place time restrictions, such as when calls are and are not allowed, or times that the phone cannot be used at all.
- The ability to monitor all of the content that is accessed with the mobile phone. Whether someone is going online, sending a text message, or taking a picture, everything is recorded so that employers can access the detailed info at their convenience.
- Providing instant GPS location and device-lock capabilities, as well as alert message notification if the SIM card has been changed. The GPS location is helpful for allowing employers to track where their employees are, during business hours, and whether they are in their assigned geographic territories.
