I am happy that we can announce Terminal services log 2.0. New applications next to user monitoring allow also application monitoring.

For all extra info please visit Terminal services log homepage.


Terminal services log 2.0 – gallery

We are happy to announce Terminal services log 2.0 gallery of screenshots.

Final v2 will be published in a day or two, until then you can check out the screenshots on http://www.terminalserviceslog.com/features/screenshots/

If you want to try the new version, or you have comments feel free to contact us.


Active process per user and past active time of processes

The new version of the application will include the feature of current viewing process per selected user and process that was used in the past for selected users.
This way you can view active process per users in live monitor. OK what is the deal, you will ask. I can see that data in task manager as well?!
The difference here is that there will be past reports of application usage available. You will be able to create reports such as:
- Who is using which application?
- How many instances of Internet Explorer did the USER have on Terminal Server in the past month?
- How many times has the USER used Internet Explorer this week?
- When Terminal Server crashed yesterday at 08:02:13, who was running which application?
- Can I see USERS favorite applications ranked by execution count?

Sample screenshot for user administrator with only current session report times per application:
You can note that terminal services user oriented processes are run from the session logon, and applications like Total Commander  run for 7 minutes, Firefox runs for 3 minutes and so on.
Terminal services log for Citrix and Microsoft active processes


Summary for all users

As mentioned before, we are in rapid new application version development of Terminal Services Log.
Today we will talk about summary times of all users on Microsoft Terminal Server or Citrix XenApp.
Summary of all users will be available in two reports, summary for all users on terminal server or summary per selected users.
First report will generate the usage of all users connected to the server in a selected time period.
Second report will generate reports only of selected users, meaning that you can for example, select all users from the sales department to report on how much they did in a selected time period.

Screenshot for new feature is available:
terminal services log summary times of all users connected

This is only one example of the new features that the new version of terminal services log will offer.


Drawing charts on per user activity times

As we are in the process of developing a new Terminal Services Log, we have a problem how to draw charts that will represent user active idle and disconnect time summaries.
Beta user interface is available in the following picture:
TSL beta analytics
As you can see on the screen, there are 5 users available for reports.
Active time is in green color, yellow is idle and disconnected time is red. Below is detailed data of any user, when he was first logged on, last logout, activity times, and how many times the user connected to the terminal server.
If you have any propositions feel free to leave a comment or write us an e- mail. We will be glad to take into consideration opinions from users that will be using software.
