The Problem with Kickidler

Kickidler is designed for detailed surveillance – keystroke logging, video recording, screenshot history, DLP features. For SMBs with 10–100 PCs? Too invasive and complex. According to G2 and Capterra reviews 2025, 65% of SMB users report: “Setup takes hours, pricing starts at $9/user/month + add-ons, keylogger feels creepy, support tickets for server installation pile up.” IT providers lose time on configuration and explanations. SMB owners want just live transparency – without storing keystrokes, without hours of videos, without on-premise servers. The question isn’t “How much is Kickidler?” – it’s: “Is there a simple, affordable alternative without overkill that IT providers can resell with 30–40% markup?”
