Enhanced control of printing
CM Printing module has been enhanced in order to provide more consistent monitoring and billing of the printing service for Cyber Monitor users.

Additionally, Cyber Monitor can be customized to prevent customers from printing if their account balance doesn't cover printing costs.
Web Based Management Console
Besides the standard Rich Client CM Manager, Cyber Monitor now also provides completely web based CM Manager. The new web based CM Manager is a perfect solution when you need additional CM Managers in order to have multiple operators and when you want to access the CM Manager using an ordinary browser without installing CM Server component.
Workstations Layouts
Workstations Layouts are intended to ease the management of the workstations especially in large internet cafes.
Using Workstations Layouts you can associate group of workstations with the physical location of workstations in your cyber café or with a particular operator.

Loyalty/Rewards Program
Cyber Monitor includes a Loyalty/Rewards system, seamlessly integrated into the existing billing system. With the Cyber Monitor Loyalty/Rewards Program, your customers can earn loyalty points for each time-interval spent or item/service purchased, which can then be redeemed for free computer use or other goods.
Multi-site Consolidation System

Now, with the new multi-site consolidation system your customers will be able to use a single customer account (prepaid card) in all your internet cafes. The billing data and the customer account balance will be consolidated through a central server to all your local sites. Each local site operates autonomously with its own local server and a local database which means the site will be operational even if the connection with the central server is broken, resulting in a very high availability. Once the connection with the central server is reestablished all changes will be automatically synchronized.

Windows users for customer groups
With each customer group you can associate a separate windows user. With the customer logon, Cyber Monitor will enforce the security and the other settings of the windows user on the used workstation.
Extended Cleanup options
With the cleanup procedure the workstation is prepared for the next customer. Besides Close All Applications, cleanup procedure is enriched with: Delete 'My Documents' files, Delete IE Temporary files, Delete IE History, Run Script, Define which applications to be started or closed. And you can define which cleanup operations to be performed on customer logon and logoff.
