Description
DeskSentry is a Windows-based automation tool that observes designated areas on the screen using local optical character recognition (OCR) and executes predefined actions when specific text or events occur. This versatile application can respond to various triggers, including alterations on the screen, changes in files and folders, clipboard activity, running applications, log file updates, hotkey activations, and scheduled tasks. Its actions range from sending alerts to communication platforms like Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, or via email, to posting updates through webhooks, launching applications, simulating keystrokes, managing dialog controls, and writing information into SQL databases. The actions dictated by the rules can utilize parameters captured by a trigger, such as recognized text or file names. DeskSentry also logs rule activities and captures screenshots locally while keeping rules and settings stored directly on the Windows machine. Notably, it does not require any user accounts and operates without telemetry or cloud services for executing rules, with the only server interaction being for license verification. This application is designed for use by administrators, quality assurance teams, and laboratory staff who need to automate or monitor Windows applications that lack appropriate APIs, thereby enhancing productivity and efficiency in their workflow.
Description
ShareWatcher is a Windows tool for anyone who needs to know what is happening on a file share: who is accessing it, and which files were added, changed or deleted, and when. Alerts arrive by email, as a sound, as a Windows event-log entry or by running a command you choose. Folders can be watched live, so a change is reported the instant it happens, or polled on a schedule, which also covers FTP servers and picks up files that arrived while the program was not running. Cadence Watcher raises the opposite alarm: a folder that should be receiving files has stopped. Actions handle new files as they land, including a QuickMove action that moves each one to the right folder by rule. The Server licence adds Auditing, recording who created, changed or deleted a file, and runs as a Windows service; Enterprise adds remote monitoring of other computers. Pro US$129, Server US$349, Enterprise US$749, paid once. Free 30-day trial. Windows 7 SP1 to 11 and Windows Server 2012 R2 and above.
