- Quick Reports
These pre-configured reports allow you to quickly generate a report based on the last week or month with just one click. These reports are created in a web-based HTML format and cannot be downloaded. See Generate a quick report for more information.
- Custom Reports
You can customize a report based on session type (i.e., attended, unattended, and/or camera share), device group, technician(s) and date ranges. These reports can include data from sessions that took place up to a year ago, and can be downloaded in .HTML, .PDF, .XLS or .CSV format. See Generate a custom report for more information.
