ezClocker
The time tracking software ezClocker is easy to use and doesn’t cost a lot of money for small businesses. This app is great if your workers aren’t very good with technology.
You can use the ezClocker kiosk app on your tablet to make it a portable time clock, or you can let your workers use their own phones to clock in.
They can see their schedule and overall hours worked, as well as clock in and out with the touch of a button. Employers can look at timesheets, make schedules, see who worked extra, and export time entries to do payroll with ezClocker.
Hubstaff
Those who wish to have a good view of how their workers behave should make use of Hubstaff. Although their main reason for doing so will be to monitor their performance, their web behavior will also be under scrutiny.
As we just said, this tool is all about making users more productive. To do this, it will keep track of how much time they spend typing and moving their mouse. Another thing that Hubstaff does is let you see how long someone worked on a certain task. Now that you know how long a job usually takes, you can make a more detailed plan for your business strategy. You can also keep an eye on each user’s productivity with this software, which can help you figure out who the most valuable employees are.
This whole lot of information is saved in screenshots that are made at random at first but can be scheduled by the manager if they want to.
There are four different price plans for this software, and the price you pay depends on which one you choose. All of them come with a 14.day free trial. But there is a free plan that is the most basic and doesn’t really offer much in the way of benefits.
Teramind
The other day, we covered Teramind, a tool mainly utilized by large companies in ensuring that their data stays protected from any breach. Yes, you got that right; this tool is capable of monitoring and logging websites, applications, documents, instant messages, and emails. It’s even possible to see what your workers print!
One great thing about this software is that it lets you see who is online and what device they are using. This makes it very easy to sort through all the data that has been collected. It is also possible to say what kinds of behavior are not okay and to give each type of bad behavior a certain amount of risk. This can be used in reports to help figure out how dangerous your workers are.
Regarding pricing, there are three levels of plans. The basic plan is priced at $60 per month and comes with five users. However, what makes them special is that each of them has an option for both the cloud-based version as well as the on-premise version.
