I'm afraid not, at least not yet. It's something we'll work on if the demand appears to be there. Right now we are focused on other features that appear to be a higher priority to …

I know right, SF is just too cheap for its own good! :p We think it's a case of horses for courses. Sitebulb has the potential to save you a ton of time when auditing and reporting…

It has a lot more comprehensive reporting and data visualization than the likes of Scrutiny. I have no idea of the scale limitations of Scrutiny, but I'd be very surprised if it ca…
