Review on Lynx Sentinel by Andre Belitz

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great software with lots under hood

A lot of features in one product for mapping criminal activity against geographical boundaries - great! I think it's quite difficult to find something particularly annoying about this program so far; perhaps there could be some more integration options/features? Perhaps make them available as plugins as well (but please keep up compatibility!). The only problem we are having currently has been solved since upgrading from v6 which was not compatible at all due to lack of new features being added over many years but rather kept adding things instead of improving those already present. We have also managed to solve our issues without spending money by using other products before purchasing Lynx Sentinel. With us now able not needing another system anymore we can focus on solving much bigger problems. Mapping criminal offences across Europe is extremely important. The best part of this program for me was being able to see all my alerts at once in one place so I could quickly look up any location from anywhere. It's not very intuitive when it comes to adding new locations but we were using an older version which may have been easier to use if they had updated their interface since then. We used this tool primarily as another way to stay organized and keep track of our children who are often out late at night.
