ActivTrak
It's well-suited for offices with a mid- to large-sized employee base. I often review ActivTrak first before going to the employee with performance questions. We have 35+ people, and it is hard to keep track of them without a regularly updated performance tracking system. I do think that a small office might be offended by the tracking.

Pros
ActivTrak
  • Tracking the teams active time on their computers

Cons
ActivTrak
  • A more detailed explanation is required when updating specific titles within the system. For instance, total time has recently become "screen time". An email notification of this change and its implications would have gone a long way.
  • Easier to read the Activity Log in reporting. Sometimes, when downloading large amounts of reports, it can be cumbersome and challenging to navigate through them.
  • Customized reports feature.

Support Rating
ActivTrak
Support is always fast and the agents are ready at all times to help when an issue arises, if the tier 1 agent isn't able to provide a solution to the issue they're asked about they quickly escalate the issue to tier 2 or 3 to ensure that the appropriate support is given to the issue at hand to have it quickly solved. No issue we've had so far has taken more than two days to be solved.

There should be a way to automatically implement the system without giving users the opportunity to accept or deny the program on their computers.

Alternatives Considered
ActivTrak
I am unsure, to be honest. I have not had much exposure to different productivity software. I lucked out by using Active Trak first. I do not feel the need to investigate or review other productivity software. I would recommend ActiveTrak to other companies, users, or those searching for productivity software.
