""We use this tool to monitor changes in our domino network as we have some "semi time" admins and I sometimes have no control what they are doing - With IONET Change Manager I get all these things documented automatically and it saves me a lot of investigating when problems occur. Great product, easy to install and maintain."" - Raoul Morik, Julius Blum GmbH, Austria. "An excellent tool to monitor and follow all security-relevant issues like Administration groups and security settings in the server documents." - Sascha Witt, Olympus Europe, Germany. "The software is really doing it's job for us. We used to have lots of unidentified/unexplained changes, now we have none." – Walter Pidwarko, Hastings-Deering Ltd, Australia. "I like the change logging. Now when something doesn't work and a programmer asks what changed, I can show them." - Norman Sprunger, Mennonite Mutual Aid, US.
