I saw this pretty nifty script on

www kampyle.com/

It's exactly the sort of thing we're after.

However one thing I didn't like about it is the pricing $99 per month for the most basic package and a whopping $990 for the most expensive, it's complete out of my price bracket, are there better alternatives out there for webmaster on a budget?

Ideally payt and keep or freeware rather than a pay monthly service.

Kampyle has a free version with some good basic features that might fit your needs. You can find the link at the bottom of the pricing page at:
