The best Employee Monitoring Software in Market for Remote Employees

It was a great experience, the software is scalable and affordable. It only adds cost upon usage which is critical.

Pros

As a company with lots of employees working remotely for us, we need strong software to monitor employees' performance and act according to the efficiency analysis. Its best feature is idle time management which helps you know if some employee is sitting idle.

Cons

Customer support is delayed a bit. We sometimes faced problems with Windows computers, this is somewhere Hubstaff needs to work it more user-friendly for Windows.

Response from Hubstaff

Hello Paul, thank you for providing your input regarding our product.

When it comes to the daily emails that get sent out automatically by our system, there are a couple of reasons to consider for why they can appear to be incorrect.

Firstly, the hours displayed in those emails are always in the organisation's timezone, and not in the member's own one. So, if there is a big time difference between the two, for example organisation having EST (New York) and user CST (Shanghai), then the hours tracked can appear to be incorrect due to the big difference between timezones.

Also, if the user's Hubstaff tracker has not been able to upload all of its tracked data as intended, then the summary report will only display hours tracked and uploaded to our servers at the time of the email being sent out.

We do encourage the usage of the timesheets area to more accurately see the hours worked by the members of your team. On there, information can accurately be seen in both timezones.

Incredible and the strong application for remote work time observing with screen captures tool

This is perfect to monitor representatives who don't work in the workplace. We can undoubtedly separate each single work time cycle and further foster it for improvement. This tool is valuable to the point that I would endorse it to anybody who's expecting to expand their efficiency and assist you with developing. Yet, to get certified use consequently you need the remuneration variation, not the free one. Furthermore, you might get some resistance from workers to utilize this, yet I would say, the people who despise it, have been deceptive. Most are totally fine with it!

Pros

Hubstaff is one of the most outstanding activity trackers for hourly-based work. Particularly, while you are a paying freelancers hourly and considering the movement you can perceive the sum you have worked. It is easy to comprehend and simple to utilize, it isn't inclined to mishaps or bugs, you can work without stress over time being clocked and it's not difficult to get and realize about it with practically no struggles. Time has unequivocally followed the software which surveils the employee movement and takes screen captures, you comprehend what individuals are chipping away at, and when! It makes your activity amazingly productive. The efficiency score is refined into a fundamental keyboard and mouse movement however it is the most un-intricate and clear technique to follow action and it assists the management with checking the comprehensive picture. There are heaps of blends and the assistance is awesome. One savvy thought is the day-to-day notice email that is sent with time worked, and level of activity.

Cons

Hubstaff at times adversely affects productivity. Representatives should recreate activities to work the entire hours, regardless of whether they can complete a venture quicker. I find the date selection genuinely burdensome and furthermore find it hard to recall where the specific reports are that I would like. Hubstaff ought to offer more customization choices to tweak the working of the application as indicated by the environment/nature of the workplace and work for instance setting a dormant break, screen capture recurrence, and so on. Our work is reliant upon the web, however, when the web is off, it actually tracks time, albeit the group isn't working around then, so there ought to be a choice to change these settings. The time fizzles when you utilized Hubstaff on your phone, and of the time it didn't match up with the Hubstaff on your PC. The screen capture is an excess of in some cases multiple times in succession without notice might save undesirable screens as well.

Way too complicated/complex.

Time-consuming. It's just an extra job to do.

Pros

I don't like anything about it. It's aimed at management/HR/payroll which means it's too complicated for other staff to navigate.

Cons

Everything is way too over-complicated, too many things to choose from, titles irrelevant to me, adds seconds to my timesheets but we have to correct this by removing them so why have them there in the first place - I don't get paid by the second! Needs to be SIMPLIFIED to suit the users' needs. It has basically created extra work.
