Reception

[edit]

According to PCWorld.com, as of September 2, 2010, the product was a little more cumbersome than necessary but overall was considered to have an edge over Space Sniffer (a freeware alternative) because it had additional functionality and provided more information.[2]

CNET observed that the program is basic but noted that this is generally what is required of such programs.[3]
