"Best app there is for limiting time at the computer!"
Version: MakuaMon 3.1.7
Pros
This software respects user's time on the computer and the need to get work done. The easy to use interface is accepted by all my computer savvy kids--ages 8 thru 48. The desktop notice sets it apart from other products too.
Cons
Have to download and install updates. Would like to see an auto-update feature.
Summary
I was intrigued by the Makua Software web site offering a new approach to computer time management. I'd given up on all of the "kids" computer time limiters out there. I tried at least a half dozen of them and eventually removed them. This seemed like something different. I'm so glad I installed the free trial of MakuaMon.
With MakuaMon, I've finally found one solution for my entire family, including my husband, my teenagers and my 8 year old. I even use it myself to make sure I don't linger on Facebook for too long and waste my morning while kids are in school and husband is at work.
MakuaMon's approach to involve the user and support use of productive apps, while controlling use of unproductive apps, such as game, is a life saver. It really works! It only cost me $29.95 for 4 computers and I believe the license allows me to use it on a 5th computer.
5 stars for MakuaMon. Thanks to download.com for helping me find this app.
