### "OK Software - It can get expensive"

November 15, 2023

4.0

Their support is chat/email only. this is sort of terrible when you are trying to solve a problem. it would be fine if software was free of charge so it was best effort support... however - if I am paying for it I expect to be able to talk to someone, especially if it is a billing issue and they are overbilling me.

Pros

I think that it is relatively easy to manage.

Cons

Their Account management is terrible. We are constantly overpaying because software picks up system users like local admin, Default1, SYSTEM .. and charges you for it... for each machine. this can get expensive in a hurry if you are not looking at the console constantly

### "Great app for remote employee time tracking "

April 11, 2019

5.0

Automated time tracking is great tool - guys adjusted it to our needs Remote employee monitoring - great but I solely used it to see what types of apps and websites our employees use Screenshots - we do not use this since ethically it is not accepted in our organisation, but could be a great tool for those who need it. They have projects and tasks - this has added significant value for us. Overall it was the only software we tested in this industry that was simple to instal and to use.

Pros

We are using it for time tracking purposes only, although this is great app for employee monitoring - they have screenshots which can be activated and turned off easily. I have tried using different options, as we have an international remote team and for us this solution was the best since their price was acceptable, it was simple, provided us with all the functionality we needed and they had cloud based option. Their support is also great. Initially we were afraid to make such an upfront investment as they did not have local partner, however their support system is good and we did not have any problems. This app allowed us to improve our overall operations and provided me with an opportunity to have a clear picture of our time spent and quality of work that our team is providing.

Cons

The design can be improved. Also they are American company, they are not present in my country

### "Great tool to use in remote culture"

February 9, 2024

5.0

So far the experience has been great! As we scale up I think this tool will be important to our software stack.

Pros

I like the "Gamification" of the productivity score. We plan to use this internally for our own employee scoring metrics

Cons

I wish there were more integrations with external data sources to push data from insightful, for example, Google Sheets or Slack. Lots of ways to bring information in, but very few ways to push information out.

### "Insightful Review"

April 21, 2023

4.0

It has been a great experience using Insightful so far, however I need to point out that Insightful needs to adapt much more to our business needs though they have been doing their best. In overall our experience has been quite fruitful.

Pros

Time TrackingProductivity Monitoring Attendance Tracking

Cons

Real time monitoring needs to be aligned a bit more with our needs but that's a work in progress as far as we have been informed.

Wow what software!!! I really appreciated the interface which is simple. Likewise it has very good and excellent customer support.

### "Practical and easy to use"

July 5, 2022

4.0

Pros

This has been useful for our organization transitioning from office to work from home arrangements. We are able to do timekeeping and monitoring of productivity of our employees with this application. It is easy to setup and easy to use.

Cons

There were a few times when some employees encountered error in their records. It seemed that intermittent connection issues or power interruption could have caused the problem. Although this seldom happens, I hope it would be handled well by the app.

### "Best Software To Increase Productivity"

February 7, 2022

5.0

Overall i am very happy to use workpuls, because obviously it increases the productivity. What else does any organization or employee need?

Pros

Workpuls is one of the best software I have used to increase productivity. Workpuls is sending random screenshot every 5 minutes, along with capturing the use of mice and keyboards that will directly show the productivity of the employee. I personally like work puls is because they are providing seamless API integration to take data from it.

Cons

Several time i have faced two type of problems while using workpuls and i compalin the team for the same but I think this issue is still not fixed and need to solve Asap. 1- Sometimes work puls didn't pick the right time let's say if you clock out at 9:00 pm and last syn was done at 8:50 pm then it will show your 8:50 pm lockout time. 2- It happens very rare like once in a month, it doesn't work like a hang issue.

### "Workpuls fulfilled all of our wants and needs in a time tracker after trying several others. "

July 28, 2017

5.0

We are able to manage employee time without a problem. We save piles of management time.

Pros

Workpuls has included all of the features that will not only assure an employer that they are only paying for time productively worked, but also that employees will be assured that they are not losing out on any of their hard earned minutes. We have found Workpuls to be the most accurate time tracker with the ability to customize Idle time outs as per how your employees work. The Desktop agent can run with as little interruption as you choose, from no employee interaction, to very simple start and stopping the tracking of their time. The combination of Screenshots and the ability to categorize apps and websites by Productive, Neutral, or Non productive, is a great tool to ensuring that you are getting the productivity that you hope for from your staff, as well as allowing analysis to see how your company could operate more efficiently maybe. We also very much like that employees are able to see their screenshots, as well as apps and websites visited throughout their day. This is also a great tool for them. Some employers may also appreciate that these features are optional. You can choose to, or not to allow your employees different permissions & privileges. Workpuls has done an outstanding job in the way of thinking of everything. Although there is always something that you wish for, that one app has that another does not, I have yet to find anything missing from Workpuls that I can't live without. They're customer service is impeccable!
