### "The best of the best!"

October 21, 2020

5.0

I used to use a time tracking software but it didn't take screenshots and remind me of idle time. I like both of the features because it gives some accountability.

Pros

It is very easy to use and the design of the platform is clean and easy to understand.

Cons

I liked other software to download an app,I don't believe this app has that option.

### "Monitask Has Completely Transformed How Our Remote Finance Team Works"

November 13, 2025

5.0

Monitask has significantly improved the efficiency and trust within our remote operations at Faes & Co. It gives both managers and employees clarity and confidence — something that’s invaluable in a finance-driven environment where accuracy and time management matter most. I would recommend Monitask to any company managing remote teams who want to maintain productivity, accountability, and peace of mind. It’s been one of the best investments we’ve made this year.

Pros

At Faes & Co, we manage multiple client accounts across different time zones, and before Monitask, tracking productivity and ensuring accountability was a real challenge. What I love most about Monitask is how seamlessly it integrates time tracking with detailed activity monitoring without feeling intrusive. The dashboard is intuitive — I can quickly see what each team member is working on and how projects are progressing. The automatic screenshots and work summaries help me make data-driven decisions about resource allocation. It’s been a game changer for transparency and remote collaboration in our finance workflows.

Cons

Honestly, there isn’t much to dislike. If I had to pick one thing, it would be that the initial setup took a bit of time to tailor reports exactly how we needed them for our finance projects. But once that was done, everything ran smoothly, and the support team was incredibly helpful during the setup phase.

### "Missing features"

December 19, 2019

3.0

Overall I liked this system but without few features mentioned above, it will be difficult to use it for long term.

Pros

User friendly interface, Required reporting features. Main thing I liked about this is ability to select currency for each individual separately.

Cons

It do not have some of the features like 1) We can not provide access to client for reviewing project and where time is consumed 2) It do not have a way to put non billable hours. For example, if I have worked 5 hours on a project and want to bill my client only 2 hours. I can not do that. I have to delete 3 hours in order to do it but I need those 3 hours information for future reference. 3) It do not Integrate with task management software like Office 365, Jira 4) Good to have video recording feature apart from screenshot

### "An Efficient Tool That Keeps Our Remote Operations Running Smoothly"

November 7, 2025

5.0

Monitask has been a game changer for our remote and field operations. It keeps our logistics team focused, improves accountability, and gives us a clear overview of performance. The learning curve was short, the security is solid, and their support team is outstanding. I highly recommend Monitask to any company looking to manage remote work efficiently while maintaining transparency and teamwork.

Pros

At MyBikeDrop, we manage logistics and delivery teams spread across different locations, so having a reliable system to monitor remote work was a must. Monitask has truly made that process effortless. The time tracking and task management features help us stay organized, while the screenshot and activity monitoring tools give clear visibility into daily progress without feeling intrusive. I also appreciate how secure the platform feels data protection is critical in our industry, and Monitask gives us that confidence. The collaboration tools make it easier for our dispatchers and drivers to stay in sync, even when they’re miles apart. Their customer support is another highlight they’re always friendly, responsive, and genuinely care about helping us get the most out of the software.

Cons

Honestly, I haven’t found anything to dislike so far. Everything works smoothly, and the setup process was straightforward even for our non technical team members.

### "Managing remote project teams across sites is now seamless"

November 18, 2025

5.0

Project management efficiency has seen remarkable improvement. Administrative overhead has decreased. This system delivers excellent value for construction management.

Pros

Monitask provides excellent visibility for project management teams. Time tracking helps accurately allocate hours across job sites. Activity monitoring ensures administrative staff maintain focus. Mobile accessibility allows checking team status from anywhere.

Cons

Field staff adoption required additional training sessions. Offline functionality could be more robust for remote sites. Integration with construction software needed customization.

### "Efficient Productivity Tracking with Minor Drawbacks"

September 19, 2025

5.0

My overall experience with Monitask has been positive. It helps me stay organized, track productivity, and manage tasks effectively. While there are minor drawbacks, such as occasional connectivity issues, the platform is generally reliable and useful for time management and accountability.

Pros

I liked most about Monitask is that it provides clear and detailed productivity tracking, making it easier to monitor tasks and manage time efficiently. The reporting features are also helpful for staying organized and accountable.

Cons

Liked least about Monitask is that the tracking can feel a bit intrusive at times, and the interface is not always very intuitive. It also requires consistent internet connection, which can be inconvenient.

### "Reliable Time Reporting for Creative Work "

June 26, 2025

5.0

This tool has made my life so much easier in preparing reports. Before, I had to gather notes and calculate hours by hand, which took time, but now Monitask takes care of that automatically and accurately. So I can invoice faster and avoid misunderstandings with clients. The tool is a success!

Pros

Monitask helps me keep track of time for each project, allowing me to accurately record what I spend on reviews, design, client, and strategy. In addition, their reports are very complete, smooth, and ready to use when I need to invoice, which has saved me a lot of time.

Cons

Having a mobile app would give you much more flexibility. The desktop version works well, but being able to review reports or view activity from a cell phone would make the day-to-day work much easier.

### "Improves time visibility for billing clients accurately"

September 20, 2025

5.0

Our advisors bill by the hour, and keeping logs was messy. With Monitask, we now have reliable, auditable records. It cut down disputes with clients and saved us time reconciling billing each month.

Pros

Clients appreciate the transparent time reports, and internally it reduces stress around accurate invoicing.

Cons

Reports could benefit from more customization options specific to financial advisory work styles and more.

October 15, 2025

5.0

We are fairly new to using Monitask but it is working well so far with our office employees. It is easy to monitor and quick to turn on and off daily.

Pros

Being able to view each click and get notified about productivity using different metrics. We are able to track the full history of each employee too.

Cons

Sometimes it is challenging when setting up new users to ensure certain boxes are ticked so we can track their productivity and set them up properly

### "Highly recommend "

November 5, 2024

5.0

10/10 so far, great piece of software and a fantastic team!

Pros

It's a very powerful piece of software, I had an onboarding call with \[sensitive content hidden\] and learned that it has literally all the functionality that I needed - just had to figure out how to get set up. The \[sensitive content hidden\], has also been incredibly responsive - you don't normally get this type of attention with any software..

Cons

for someone who's not very familiar with this kind of tech, i was just overwhelmed with all the options but that was solved by having an onboarding call.

July 2, 2024

5.0

Wonderful overall experience in terms of software, usability and general support so we can focus on running the daily operations.

Pros

Monitask was an easy to use platform to help us as a small business grow with our international contractors. Having timesheets, kpi tracking and a usable interface helps us reach our operational goals.

Cons

There are a few features that are more refined then others but overall usage is incredibly ideal.

### "A simple, full featured activity and time tracking tool for remote workers"

November 4, 2023

4.0

Pros

The pricing is one of the most affordable I found. The support has been very responsive and the tool installs very easily for my employees.

Cons

It feels a bit cheaply designed. Because they are based out of Russia, there is a sense of unease about the safety of my data. I think if the design was more polished and the Russian language did not pop up unexpectedly at times, I would feel better about the purchase.

Switched from

[Hubstaff](https://www.capterra.com/p/132376/Hubstaff/)

Hubstaff would not do the activity tracking consistently when I had users with multiple computers signed in. They also had way too much going on in the tool and we got confused.

### "Great product"

May 29, 2025

4.0

So far so good. Installation went smoothly yet some things one has to study how to set up. Possibly it would be wise to highlight the most important features and keep the advanced settings somewhere in a separate area to make it easier to use.

Pros

it's a very complete product, very nice that you can specify projects. I like also the screenshotting feature so that you can see back what you've been working on.

Cons

I still have to dive deeper into it to figure out how it works, which might be a minor drawback. Lot of features that I am not sure if I all need.

For now everything works fine and I'm really happy with it.

Pros

Cons

### "Task tracking and manager"

October 21, 2021

4.0

Pros

Monitask is important for my workflow, as they offer an easy way to track and time track my task. I usually collaborate it with my team, and we can monitor easily the task progress and intervention that are needed for the task. The notification will be sent either by email or on the notification central for the task that has reach its dateline and still not marked complete.

Cons

Monitask has limited logs or history for the time tracking. It only store the logs for the last 2 weeks and nothing after it. I make the auditing process is harder as i will need to save the logs manually before it disappeared.

July 8, 2021

4.0

Pros

Monitask gives a new perspective in the way of monitoring a task and project. It is a great way for project administration to track the project progress percent and which task is still left behind the time schedule.

Cons

It will be great if the task has an option for mobile version, so for the user that need to go off the sites still can be counted on their task timing. It is not too pressing, but should be good it they have it.
