IT & GIS Management

Complete visibility, governance, and performance metrics for every ArcGIS Pro user.

Keeping enterprise GIS running smoothly means balancing security, infrastructure performance, data governance, and user support— often with limited staff and no easy way to see what’s really happening inside ArcGIS Pro sessions. ChronoCards delivers actionable telemetry straight from Pro to a web dashboard, letting IT and GIS leaders proactively address issues, justify investments, and safeguard institutional knowledge.

Stop flying blind! Monitor usage, enforce standards, and resolve problems faster with ChronoCards.

Built for IT & GIS Leaders

Quantify Usage & Justify Budgets with Hard Numbers

When funding decisions hinge on proof of value, anecdotes fall flat. ChronoCards converts everyday GIS activity into hard data that makes a compelling business case for licenses, hardware, and headcount.

  • Spot usage trends to forecast license renewals, server upgrades, and staffing gaps
  • View active hours and edit counts by project, layer, or individual user
  • Calculate true cost per task or project to strengthen capital proposals

Show the numbers (and secure the budget!) you need to scale GIS with confidence.

Log GIS Activity Just Like You Log Everything Else

IT logs email, servers, and apps, yet GIS work often goes untracked. ChronoCards fills that gap by creating a tamper-proof audit trail for every ArcGIS Pro session.

  • Time-stamped log entries are tied to users authenticated via ArcGIS Online or Portal
  • Users can optionally add contextual notes and screenshots to explain intent or issues, all without leaving ArcGIS Pro
  • Logs silently in the background: users don’t need to do anything differently

Complete the picture: give GIS the same logging rigor as the rest of your stack.

Enforce Data Governance & Security Policies

Enforce Data Governance & Security Policies

Critical datasets can quickly drift from approved environments when users copy layers locally or edit outside of Portal/Enterprise. ChronoCards data usage, linking actions to authenticated users so security and compliance teams never miss a violation.

  • Identify edits to non-authoritative or out-of-date layers before they propagate
  • View saves to local drives or unauthorized network paths in real time
  • Trace each change back to the exact user, environment, and ArcGIS Pro session for rapid incident response

Get instant visibility into data handling— secure your GIS without slowing your team down.

Monitor Application Performance

View edit processing times for each layer.

When ArcGIS Pro drags, users blame everything from VMs to Wi-Fi. ChronoCards ties application performance metrics to each session, making it easy to pinpoint and fix the real culprit.

  • Record project open times, tool runtimes, and edit-lag for every user
  • Identify slow file shares, servers, or VM bottlenecks before they snowball into help-desk tickets
  • Trend performance over time to justify hardware or cloud upgrades

Stop guessing and start tuning! Keep ArcGIS Pro running at top speed.

Resolve Issues in Minutes, Not Meetings

Resolve Issues in Minutes, Not Meetings

Troubleshooting usually means endless emails and screen-shares. ChronoCards gives support teams the ability to replay every ArcGIS Pro session, so they can diagnose problems without dragging analysts through a time-consuming re-creation.

  • Scroll through an analyst’s timeline to pinpoint the exact failing tool, parameter, or dataset
  • Compare successful and failed runs side by side to isolate bad inputs in seconds
  • Add notes once the fix is found to prevent repeat incidents

Skip the back-and-forth and solve GIS issues on the first call.
