By installing Classroom Spy Professional to the Cloud you can monitor your computers over different networks and Internet.
The application consists of two modules that must be installed:
The "Classroom Spy Agent" must be installed on all remote computers that you want to monitor. To do this, you must have administrative privileges.
Agent can be manually or remotely installed.
To manually install an agent please go to remote computer and run the installation program.
In the first installation window click on second option Install "Classroom Spy Agent".
On the end of installation you will have to configure an agent. To do so please read the chapter Agent Configuration.
Agent can be installed in stealth mode (select "Stealth Agent Install" check box).
In such way no program group is created, application does not appear in Add/Remove programs and no icon is displayed.
During installation, you need to type the password that protects the configuration and access to the agent.
Here, simply select one password and remember it. Note that the default port on which the agent operates is 5444. You can change this port during installation or, later on (Advanced Configuration tab).
If you use a firewall, you must open the used port.
You can choose to make this computer accessible only via Cloud connection by selecting "Use Cloud connection", which allows you to monitor computer over the Internet. Cloud license is subscription based.
If you selected that you want to use Cloud connection then you will be asked to use existing Cloud account or to create a new Cloud account.
If you are creating a Cloud account for a first time, your trial Cloud license will be automatically enabled.
NOTE:
Cloud account can also be created directly from the monitoring console using menu "Cloud / Create Cloud account".
To monitor your computer over the Internet, you need to have the Cloud account.
If you don't have the Cloud account yet then you can create it here by selecting "Create new Cloud account":
You will receive an email with account activation code after confirming this step:
NOTE:
If you didn't receive an email, please check your SPAM folder or contact support.
Proceed with installation and enter account activation code from email:
If you already created a Cloud account before then previous steps are not needed and you can choose "Use existing cloud account" and enter your Cloud account username & password:
Click "Next" and confirm that you want to monitor this computer:
After that your remote computer was added to the cloud and it can be added to the console using menu "Cloud / Add computers from Cloud".
