European Businesses Increase Adoption of Spector 360 PC and Internet Monitoring and Surveillance Software

Vero Beach, FL and Manchester, UK (Vocus) June 7, 2010 -- Underscoring the increased adoption of corporate monitoring and surveillance solutions throughout Europe, SpectorSoft Corporation today announced accelerated growth in the region along with key Spector 360 (http://www.spector360.com/) customer wins through Snapguard, the company’s channel partner and distributor in the UK and Ireland. Spearheaded by founder and Director Jow Arif, Snapguard’s revenue on SpectorSoft software solutions has multiplied nearly five-fold since the company’s inception in 2004 — reflecting the acceptance of PC and Internet monitoring to curb Internet abuse, prevent data leakage, and increase employee and IT productivity.

“SpectorSoft continues to accelerate its global footprint, and strong adoption throughout Europe is a major driving force in that growth,” said Jason Judge, CEO of SpectorSoft Corporation. “Our goal is to continue expanding our international presence and Snapguard has proven to be a great partner for SpectorSoft prospects and customers in the UK and Ireland.”

SpectorSoft’s award-winning PC and Internet Monitoring and Surveillance Software products (http://www.spectorsoft.com/products/) have been purchased by more than 50,000 businesses and 500,000 consumers located in 80% of the world’s countries. Throughout Europe, installations of Spector 360 corporate-wide monitoring software have proven beneficial at organizations that include:

•    UK Law Enforcement Agency deploys Spector 360 across 9,000 client computers at nearly 200 locations throughout Great Britain. Network analysts and administrators credit Spector 360 for detecting any data leakage that could compromise people’s whereabouts. “Given the highly sensitive nature of our data, if we’re preventing information leakage with Spector 360, we could be preventing loss of life. The screenshots, logs, charts, and reports … very powerful! The Spector 360 product overall is surprisingly easy. I was also impressed with how easy we were able to roll it out on a large scale. There were no errors or complaints. I’ve been very impressed with support from Snapguard in the UK and also SpectorSoft in the States.” Read the complete case study at: http://downloads.spectorsoft.com/resources/SuccessStories/360/LawEnforcementAgency.pdf.

•    Bexhill College, located in Bexhill-on-Sea England, deploys Spector 360 on more than 20 Windows Servers and 500 Windows workstations. Because content filtering "was not up to dealing with the emerging proxies," Bexhill College administration feared many students were wasting time and hiding it. In addition, "general Internet misuse" plagued the English sixth form institution, leading it to search for and find Spector 360 to help it meet its Duty of Care. "Spector 360's deterrent factor has been great in preventing problems. It has certainly increased productivity for IT. The Spector 360 investment versus the benefit shows a very good value. We have had immeasurable benefits… excellent bang for the buck.” Read the complete case study at: http://downloads.spectorsoft.com/resources/SuccessStories/360/BexhillCollege.pdf.

•    Blackburn Rovers, located in Lancashire UK, deploys Spector 360 on approximately 250 PCs located in three separate club facilities. After Blackburn Rovers "took web filtering as far as it would go," the English Premier League team scored big and kicked PC and Internet abuse to the sidelines with Spector 360. "Spector 360 delivers just like the name says … it provides a complete all-around view … 360-degree protection. Productivity is up. You look at a person’s day, and all that shows up is business apps. Working with SpectorSoft and Snapguard is absolutely fantastic." Read the complete case study at: http://downloads.spectorsoft.com/resources/SuccessStories/360/Blackburn.pdf.
