  • SKU: SPACEOBSER


Hard disk space manager for Microsoft Windows that scans local and network drives and stores the structure, sizes and properties in a SQL database.

SpaceObServer is a powerful and flexible hard disk space manager for Windows which stores file system information in a database and thus can help you free disk space.

SpaceObServer is available in Standard and Enterprise Edition.

Key features:

  • Track Disk Space Usage: SpaceObServer Agent, regularly scans selected drives and stores the collected data in a SQL database. Users can also scan network drives, scan all shares of a computer server and access the NTFS Change Journals of local drives and updates information about NTFS drives continuously.
  • Analyse Disk Space: Discover which folders occupy most of your hard disk space and allow users to track down unwanted fiiles with several visualisation options. Space usage history shows development over time and provide an approximate estimate of disk space usage development for the future.
  • Remote Access: SpaceObServer Remote Client (sold separately) offers access to all scan results from different workstations in your network.
  • Search for Files: Customisable file search allows filtering such as by size, which are applied directly to the directory tree and all other views. Duplicate files can be identified by the MD5 checksum of their content or a combination of name, size and last change date for easier deduplication operations.
  • Clean up Disk Space: Checked directories and files can be easily moved, zipped or deleted and also, SpaceObServer can replace duplicate files with NTFS hardlinks.
  • Export Results: Print reports showing the directory structure or save them as for example XLS and export them to the clipboard. Charts can be exported in the common graphic formats like JPG.
  • Complete NTFS Support: File-based NTFS compression and NTFS permissions can be analysed.
  • Customised View: Visibility and order of the columns can be configured for the details view and each export type separately.You can easily customise the output format, e.g. number of decimals, size unit
  • Supports: Unicode file and directory names, Windows File Paths longer than 255 characters and the Explorer context menu within the SpaceObServer interface.
  • Enterprise Edition only:
    • More Disk Space Management: Determine disk space occupied by Exchange mailboxes and scans Linux and Unix file systems via SSH (Secure Shell).
    • Automated Reporting via OLE Automation: Allows scheduling your exports from within your own scripts or applications. Programming languages that offer OLE Automations interface are supported.
