Yes, the M-Box apps are all SaaS service, which means it is available as long as the (very reasonable) subscription fees are paid.
The software is proprietary software, which means it is developed by us and it is not open source.
Yes, all the applications run independently, which means you can decide which tool to run where and when.

We recommend M-Box Diagnostics to be aware of developing PC problems, so that downtime can be avoided.
For the Time and Task Manager application, PC failure is no problem if you can find another machine with the application installed. In case of emergency, the application can easily be downloaded and installed, so you can be back to work in no time.
In case of internet failure, the PC keeps collecting data and it will upload this data once the connection is restored.
The free trial lasts for 30 days. Just go ahead; create your account and register all the machines you intend to monitor. After 20 days you will receive a reminder to register your payment method and make the payment. If you do not make the payment, the service will be discontinued after the 30 days have passed.
When the payment date is approaching you will receive a reminder in your email that the new invoice is available. Settle the payment via your preferred method to continue the services. As we try to minimize the number of transactions and invoices, we synchronize all new (and future) subscriptions to your original account set-up date for one annual bill for all our services.
Yes, anyone who wants just a single machine monitored can subscribe. In fact the tools can be very helpful when used in a home environment to monitor different PC’s or as a time management training tool for (school) projects.

Privacy and security is very important to our clients and ourselves. All data on our servers are therefore protected following a defense in depth approach where we use multiple layers of defense. All communication between PC’s and servers according to IPsec standard which is the only way to achieve full protection of all communication over IP network.
Our engineers will monitor the performance M-Box itself, but cannot see any client specific data or reports. In case of technical problems, the standard support user is activated by the client. In that mode, they can manage what our support staff can see while solving the issues at hand. After the support session, the client resets to default where data are protected and private again.
The data collected is extremely accurate. All Boxes and components (including sensors) are tested extensively before shipment. The software labels each data record received with a serial number and servers verify if all records are indeed complete. In this way, we have a full guarantee that all records that are generated indeed arrive at our servers for analysis and reporting.
The system cannot be manually reset by yourself. All data is kept, only over time we sum the details:
– All records kept for 24 hours
– After 12 hours the data are grouped per day
– After one month we group per week.
In the unlikely case you decide that M-Box would be of no further added value to you we will delete all existing records connected to your account from our servers.
