Overall Satisfaction with ActivTrak

We use ActivTrak as a way to see what percentage of our employees time is being spent doing productive vs unproductive activies (ie work related vs personal internet usage). Since we are a hybrid workforce, we also use it as a secondary tool to check working hours, as well as breaks.
  • Custom groups, so you can define departments.
  • Classifications, which can be tailored to what is productive and not based on department
  • Live reports so you can see who is active or not
  • Updating the billing information so it is on the interface. There's no way to get invoices or change payment methods on our own, we have to contact a sales rep to do so.
  • When a customer gets rid of a license, prorate the unused portion of it (we get charged for upgrading).
  • Using ActivTrak has had neither a positive or negative impact on our overall business objectives.
  • Live reports, being able to see the time spent doing productive vs non productive activities, as well as when breaks were taken.
Pre-Covid, we were a 100% in the office company, as we shifted to a hybrid work environment ActivTrak has enabled us to maintain the same level of productivity by letting our employees know that their computer does have ActivTrak installed. Employees are allowed to work at their leisure, but we do want to make sure that the same level of productivity is maintained, whether in office or working from home.

Do you think ActivTrak delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with ActivTrak's feature set?

Yes

Did ActivTrak live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of ActivTrak go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy ActivTrak again?

Yes

It depends on the business model and wants of the colleague -- are they hybrid? Are they wanting to track productivity vs non productivity? The referral would base solely on what the colleague is looking for and what features they're wanting out of a platform. We use the interface in such a limited capacity that I couldn't highlight additional benefits that could, and are there, but it would be something I would tell someone to at least look into.
