Lex Cafe

While it is fun most of the times, running a network-based business can be slightly tricky, particularly when it comes to monitoring the time spent by your clients at the computers.

Lex Cafe is a lightweight application that enables you to efficiently keep track of the time each computer in your Internet cafe is used as well as whether the usage was paid for.

The application does not require setup per se, as it basically entails decompressing the archive. After you launch the client and connect to a server, you can access the server and add the computers that are connected to your network.

You can lock, unlock, reset, shut down, restart and add extra minutes to each of the computers seamlessly once you configure the network. A noteworthy feature is that you can add notes to each computer, an option that can be useful on numerous occasions, such as to set up reminders to do the updates or install a game for one of your clients, for instance.

You can manage each session of computer usage in your cyber cafe by specifying the time spent, price per hour and currency. While the application does the total automatically, it is necessary to mention that you can type the sum due as well.

Moreover, you can effortlessly add more time to a computer by typing the extra minutes requested. These features can come in handy when you offer various other services in your cafe, such as refreshments for example.

On a side note, even though you can view the active applications on each computer at any time, you cannot take any action. It would be useful if the program included a function to shut down apps and windows that should not access, especially if you run a cafe that allows children.

If you are looking for an intuitive solution to manage your Internet cafe, then Lex Cafe might be the tool you need to start managing your business more efficiently.
