pcBaseline

CNET Editors' review

by: CNET Staff on February 27, 2009

This top-notch application lets you categorically view changes on your system, though novices may initially be overwhelmed with all the options it offers. pcBaseline's interface is clean and straightforward, and presents system aspects, such as Processes, Services, Run, and Browsers, in a tree-like manner while displaying the current and baseline tasks. Creating baselines and snapshots of the current state of a selected system aspect is simple, thanks to the program's Wizards. From there, you can easily identify changes made to your computer by comparing the baselines and its current status. The program generates reports regarding changes, including items added, removed, and modified. pcBaseline's reports are exportable as text, HTML, or Excel files. Though novices may be overwhelmed at first glance, the application's user guide and Wizard functionality will be a great help. Users looking for an effective tool to monitor changes on their systems will find this application quite adequate.
