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.

CEO at MyBikeMx Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "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. Review Source SS Saurabh S. Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "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 Alternatives considered [Time Doctor](https://www.capterra.com/p/129984/Time-Doctor/)[Hubstaff](https://www.capterra.com/p/132376/Hubstaff/)[DeskTime](https://www.capterra.com/p/168660/DeskTime/) Reason for choosing Monitask As of now I am mostly using Hubstaff because of missing features I mentioned.

President Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "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.

Medical VA Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "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. Review Source PG Punnet G. Chief operating Officer Financial Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Effective Time-Tracking Tool That Enhance Project Accountability" November 19, 2025 5.0 Monitask improved our billing accuracy, clarified workload distribution, and strengthened transparency across client-facing consulting teams. Pros Accurate tracking, helpful productivity reports, and easy oversight for consultants working across multiple clients projects. Cons Lacks deeper integrations with several enterprise project-management platforms our consulting teams rely on daily, creating occasional workflow disruptions. Review Source SG Selenia G. Founder and Lead Designer Internet Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "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. Review Source RK Rebecca K. HR Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Would Recommend to Companies" 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 Review Source PK Pankaj K. CEO Investment Banking Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "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. Review Source CG Charlie G. Project Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Transformed our software development monitoring" April 14, 2025 5.0 Gives us visibility into complex development workflows without interrupting programmer focus. We can see which parts of our codebase require the most attention and where we might need additional resources. Has reduced our need for status update meetings significantly. Pros We rely heavily on the project tracking integration to monitor our 30-person development team. Being able to see which applications developers are using throughout the day helps us allocate resources more effectively. The automatic screenshot blurring for sensitive information protects our intellectual property while still verifying productivity. Cons Would like more granular permission settings for different team lead roles. Review Source DG Dina G. Sales representative Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Satisfied customer" March 1, 2025 5.0 Amazing loved it, easy comfortable, like the color of the logo Pros Simple and easy to use, like the logo colors very inviting, detailed view of all data on the online login webpage. FAQ which assists with most concerns. Cons cannot find access for setting of adjusting any notification when taking screenshot Switched from [Hubstaff](https://www.capterra.com/p/132376/Hubstaff/) Monitask provides a lower price than Hubstaff Review Source AL Alexander L. Team Leader Real Estate Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Found the best value for money time tracking software" June 3, 2024 4.0 All in all, Monitask is an app that you won't be sorry for using as it has a small imprint, simple to use, and good enough for budget-conscious companies Pros The app takes up very little space, runs in the background and has enough features for tracking time spent by employees that I don't know how we'd do without it. It has been faithfully tracking time for us for a couple of years now and has rarely run into problems compared to others that we've tried or evaluated in the past Cons The one thing that employees hate about Monitask is the fact that selecting a pre inputted task sometimes takes a bit of effort. The dropdown sometimes does not highlight the task, you'll have to click on the dropdown several times to make it stick. The accuracy of the snapshot also has quirks which we have already gotten used to. Alternatives considered [Hubstaff](https://www.capterra.com/p/132376/Hubstaff/) Reason for choosing Monitask Monitask was cheaper, much simpler to implement and use, ran without taking up too much space and resources, and never gave us any headaches during the two years that we've been using them. Switched from [Time Doctor](https://www.capterra.com/p/129984/Time-Doctor/) Time Doctor was too complicated to use compared to Monitask which was simple and not resource hungry Review Source EC Emily C. Marketing Construction Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great tool for small teams " July 17, 2024 5.0 It's been great and very simple. We initiated with the free trial and were able to use the software freely before purchasing, which helped us determine that it satisfied our needs. Pros It allows no minimum number of users, which is great for small teams. Many remote tracking tools have minimum user requirements which end up costly and unused. The screenshots are always accurate and clear and the productivity indicator is really useful for reviewing hours. Cons More tools in the subscriptions for smaller teams. Alternatives considered [Teramind](https://www.capterra.com/p/172645/Teramind/) Reason for choosing Monitask They had a minimum user requirement to purchase which we didn't need. Review Source RN Ruchel N. Assistant Entertainment Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "My Trial Days in Monitask" December 13, 2023 5.0 It's great and not half bad. I felt bad about that my trial ends and I can't do even a thing to get my alloted time. I actually used it on my work so yeah 40/100 rate. Pros Easy to understand, very efficient and I can monitor my time effectively. I also like the transparency of it. Cons I thought it was free then trial is too short and when the trial ends I don't know if I can retrieve my Time Tracking there, it doesn't even allow me to check my status. It actually compromise my time availability and I can't do my invoice now. Switched from [Toggl](https://www.capterra.com/p/247745/Toggl/) I can't retrieve my time tracking due to the fact my trial ends and I can't do a thing about my profile. Review Source AN Arthur N. Owner Hospitality Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great Employee Monitoring Software" April 24, 2024 5.0 Pros I have used a few other ones such as Hubstaff, and ActivTrack.

Pros This App Contains Company Features. Time to Time Notification. Nice Access and Privileged settings. Cons If possible can you also add daily keyboard and mouse taps. Switched from [TopTracker](https://www.capterra.com/p/207357/TopTracker/) The Top tracker does not provide any company privileged like anyone can update time. The Product Work with system time so you can turn off the tracking whole day and at the end of day you can change system time to enter false entry. Review Source PM Peter M. IT Administrator Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great for managing remote teams and tracking daily output" May 26, 2025 5.0 We use Monitask to track working hours and analyze user productivity. It provides accurate data for performance reviews, and makes managing workflows very easy. Pros Monitask offers a straightforward interface for time tracking. One of the best qualities is running in the background whilst automatically logging work hours and capturing periodic screenshots. You can easily monitor a team's performance.

Software Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "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.
