“Reuters are already benefiting on a department-wide scale. Staff see the installation of RSIGuard as evidence that their employers are listening to them and taking a proactive stance on healthier computing.”
David Cowell, Reuters
“RSIGuard has been very useful in getting me to take breaks. For several years I have had chronic trouble with my neck. Frequent visits to the chiropractor resolve the problem but then it typically recurs again. Since installing RSI Guard, I have not returned to the chiropractor.”
Jane Vold, IBM
“I have found RSIGuard extremely useful in managing an existing problem – mainly the AutoClick feature and reminders to take breaks. It enables me to work without problems, whereas before I was in pain after about 5 minutes of using a normal mouse.”
