Chief Operating Officer Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "A Valuable Tool for Managing Hybrid and Remote Workforces" July 27, 2026 5.0 Overall, our experience has been very positive. Teramind has become an important operational tool for managing a distributed workforce across multiple countries. It provides meaningful productivity insights, configurable policies, and automation that help reduce administrative effort while promoting accountability. Once configured correctly, it largely runs in the background and provides actionable information when it's actually needed. Pros Teramind provides excellent visibility into workforce productivity, especially for hybrid and fully remote teams. The ability to create role-specific productivity profiles, configure custom behavior alerts, and automate responses (such as notifications or application restrictions) allows us to align the platform with our policies instead of changing our processes to fit the software. It has helped reduce manual oversight and gives leadership confidence that expectations are being applied consistently across the organization. Cons My biggest suggestion would be more role-specific training and educational resources. I'd love to see separate learning paths for system administrators, department managers, team leads, and even end users or contractors using revealed agents. The platform is very capable, but many organizations would likely get much more value if there were more structured training beyond the initial implementation. Review Source TP Tejas P. IT Manager Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Product Review for Teramind" July 27, 2026 5.0 Very Satisfied with the product and the report it generates with employee productivity and keyboard/mouse falsification also it captures. Can set the alert rule on AI usage, Website categories, YouTube etc. Great level of Technical support which is available 24x7 and superfast resolution all the time whenever reach to them. UI is also very nice to have all the information on the dashboard readily available if the agent is not responding, can fix it as well Application and Process wise filter are adorable to use and monitor in case certain falsification been done by the employee, we can capture it Pros Teramind is worth value for money product for our organization. It is very easy to deploy and use it silently. We get the actual employee productivity and time tracking so can decide who actually works and who does falsification. Awesome Reporting and Project tracking features. Learning is again a good source with great level of support from Teramind. Cons There is nothing so far that as least liking about Teramind. Very brilliant software for the monitoring in stealth mode Review Source R Reviewer Fraud analyst Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "My experience with Teramind at my company" July 26, 2026 4.0 Overall, I have found this tool to be quite useful to specific needs of our company. Out of all competitors, Teramind offers solutions that we need providing good value for our money, especially when compared to other competitors, which is why our company chose them. We have been working with Teramind for a few years now and so far, our Team is very satisfied. Pros The feature that I find the most useful in this app is the employee productivity dashboard. It allows to quickly see if employees are staying productive or spending their time at work to watch movies. In addition to that, I found their integrated BI reports to be great 'out of the box' and due to the ease of configuration, it can be highly customizable. Additional feature, that is especially important for my line of work is monitoring and risk management, as those features can prevent data incidents or potential fraudulent activities. Cons Teramind is not without its bugs, especially with the newest versions. There are times when issues that do arise can be quite disruptive with work that needs to be done. There have been specific cases where either some report filtering option was unavailable or there were visual glitches with monitoring. The last major issue that we have encountered was how Teramind works with Apple laptops. Luckily, Teramind support team is very helpful and actively communicates with us on all of these issues, most of which have been solved in a very quick time. Review Source R Reviewer It engineer Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Widely recommended software and solution" July 25, 2026 5.0 It includes all the necessary tools for agent monitoring and preventing information leaks. Fully automated reports and monitoring that is very easy to run. Pros The ease of use of the platform. The new version is very efficient, Overall, it is very good software. The price is very competitive. Employee productivity improves when they are aware of their daily activities. Cons Everything has been going very well up until today. They always provide support for my requests. Review Source Nelson G. Compliance - WFM Supervisor Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Ease of mind knowing your hired worker is working. " July 25, 2026 4.0 Great! It has been a game changer for the business. Before we were not able to track Lunches or breaks and now we can. We are also able to get and share the productivity reports with our clients which is proof that their collaborators are working. As we work with many different clients in different industries Teramind has helped us Accurately track the correctly coach depending on the client type and amount of workload provided. Pros What I like most is the ability to check on your remote workers and have that peace of mind that they are actually working and not just watching TV or on Social media the entire shift. With a click of a button you can view what they are doing live and you can even go back and check if and why they did an error. The Teramind legacy interface is easy to use and customer support and tech is always fast to respond. Cons Its still limited by simple things for example, you Filter 20 ppl in the dashboard for visibility. If one of them disconnects there is nothing telling you who out of the 20 disconnected. It will just say 19 Online and you would have to cross reference with a list to see who is missing. Review Source Jason C. DevOps Engineer Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Teramind: An IT internal investigation tool for the rest of us" July 25, 2026 5.0 Teramind has been great for us as a post-incident investigative tool and I recommend it to any organization which cares about internal security. Pros We use Teramind for incident investigation. To that end, it works great. We don't use the time or project tracking features but it's nice that they're there and pretty easy to use. The stealth installer is a .msi which means that we can push the installation of the agent via Intune or GPO and I like have control over the automatic updates. (I can push updates outside of business hours.) Teramind isn't super hard to learn and I had it pretty figured out within a week or two. But their support is pretty fantastic too. Cons Termind is in the middle of a migration to a new user interface. Feature parity between the old and the new user interfaces is not quite there yet and, per support, you still have to use the legacy UI to do certain things, like pushing agent updates. We also ran into some issues previously with blocking websites based on regex. Currently, you can only block sites based on "equals", "contains", or "matches regex". There's no "starts with" operator and wildcards "\*" or "?" are not supported. In our environment, if Teramind pushes a new trusted certificate to the endpoint, it drops all RPD connections. This doesn't lose work for the user but it is annoying. Some agent updates have, in the past, forced a restart which could not be suppressed caused a problem when used on a VDI hosts but it's been years since this last happened. We still only do agent updates manually outside of business hour because of this. Review Source BL Bruno L. Senior Software analyst Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Excellent survaillance tool" July 23, 2026 5.0 The system is easy to use, easy to configure. Support is always available when we run into problems. Pros It's easy to use, configuration is simple yet effective software for survaillance purposes. The recording allows our security team to quickly validate employees behaviors. Cons Some feature (Omni / Insight) are only available to the admin users. Those feature would be helpful to our security team. It's also not possible to export a report from those pages that could be share with our security team that would list the names of the employee, the event type, the duration, and time stamp of the event Review Source R Reviewer HR Director Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Great tool for employers to use!" July 23, 2026 5.0 Great experience overall, easy customer service to deal with. The dashboard is easy to navigate and provides the end user with a lot of information on the employees who are being tracked. Pros Allows for me to have a great overview of how productive my employees are and what they are spending the majority of their days working on/doing Cons The Instant Message feature was better on the old dashboard vs the new dashboard that's in place now Review Source SP Shannon P. Manager of HRIS and AP Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Teramind is worth the time and cost. " July 23, 2026 5.0 I like how easy Teramind is to get hours tracking all in one spot along with productivity. I would recommend Teramind. Pros Teramind is easy to use and the customer support is superb. I did weekly trainings with my representative to learn the different reports and make the tracking of time and productivity easier. Cons I don't have anything at this point that is a con for me. The reports were a learning curve, but once you get the process it is much easier. Review Source Jessica L. Head Trainer Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Teramind- The ROI is strong with this one" July 23, 2026 5.0 Using Teramind has made my job so much easier. As a trainer, the primary function I use is viewing the screen recordings of employees. When I am performing QA and I can tell an employee is struggling with a system, I can easily view their screen to see exactly where the issue lies. This saves so much time on training calls, since I don't need to try to determine what they are missing. We can dive right into it! Pros Teramind is user-friendly and allows us to monitor productivity (and lack thereof) easily. The learning curve is small. One can learn how to use the basic features in a matter of minutes, but the software offers a lot beyond the basics. The option to view screen recordings has proven very useful when researching escalations from our clients. No more spending hours trying to figure out exactly what occurred! The reporting features make it easy to see crucial statistics at a glance without having to review each employee individually. It has saved my company hours of work and allowed us to easily identify weak links, thus creating a strong ROI. Cons The interface was updated, which presents a new learning curve. There are a lot of similarities, which makes it a bit easier, but time is a limited resource, and it can be difficult to find time to dive in and re-learn software you're already using. Review Source R Reviewer Founder Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Perfection for a virtual company" January 31, 2018 5.0 Improved overall company security and employee performance. Pros Globonics is a virtual company with employees working from home in many different locations. We needed a way to monitor these employees' performance. With Teramind we are able to: 1. Monitor emails both incoming/outgoing and we are able to search for key words across our entire enterprise's email flow 2. We monitor clock in / out performances. There is a tendency for people to clock in when working from home and simply not work for the first 30 to 60 minutes. 3. When we spot a productivity opportunity we can go back to the exact time and employee and watch their recorded video. We have used these videos during performance reviews. 4. The recorded videos can also be used to provide training on what we call EIO's (efficiency improvement opportunities). For example, a user spends 4 hours working on 100 items. The user was not using a series of hot keys programmed into our software. We took the video and showed a before and after. After user worked 130 items in 4 hours. 5. Teramind has an automated alert system that can be customized for many things but is robust even out of the box. It monitors for key website usage (monster.com/indeed/etc) and will let you know if your personnel are looking for other jobs. It monitors for file uploads, unauthorized printing, and more. 6. We are successfully using Teramind to satisfy SOC2 DLP (data loss prevention) audit requirements. Needless to say we LOVE it! Cons When we were using the hosted version: The only suggestion I have is to tweak how your licensing assignment works. When using the hosted version every time a "user" logs onto a computer it creates a new "employee" in Teramind and eats up a license automatically. There are times when our trainers travel to employee homes or when we have an onsite computer at a client that has multiple employees logon to it where we do not want this behavior. Instead, my suggestion is it creates a profile for each employee and track's their usage across ALL devices they log on to. Now that we use our own internal server: Teramind tracks by actual device and not by user so the licensing application issue no longer exists however, we still have many duplicate employees as it still creates a duplicate each time they logon to a different device. Review Source R Reviewer Secretary Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Great productivity booster" February 10, 2025 5.0 Pros You can select invisible installation or visible, depending on your needs. You can see the employees' screens in real time. Cons It's pretty expensive, and for more monitoring options you have to pay even more. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Accounting Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Teramind honest review" October 23, 2023 2.0 Pros Lots of features, security features, screen recording Cons Bad UI, not flexible, bad customer support, lots of features I don't need etc. Review Source Rony B. Accounts Manager Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Unmatched Employee Monitoring Software" June 26, 2023 5.0 My overall experience with Teramind has been highly positive. The platform's robust employee monitoring capabilities have provided valuable insights into our team's activities. The ability to track and analyze user behavior has enhanced productivity and security within our organization. The customizable alerts and automated actions have streamlined our workflow and ensured policy compliance. While there were some areas for improvement, such as the learning curve and occasional performance lags, Teramind has proven to be an essential tool for effective employee monitoring. It has empowered us to make informed decisions and maintain a secure work environment. Pros Teramind impressed me with its standout features that revolutionized our employee monitoring experience. The powerful monitoring capabilities provided real-time insights into employee activities, helping us enhance productivity and security. The ability to track and analyze user behavior allowed us to identify potential risks and mitigate them proactively. The customizable alerts and automated actions streamlined our workflow, ensuring prompt response to any policy violations. The comprehensive reporting and analytics provided valuable data for optimizing processes and making informed decisions. Teramind has become an indispensable tool for efficient and secure employee monitoring. Cons While Teramind offers robust employee monitoring capabilities, there were a few areas that left room for improvement. One drawback was the complexity of the platform, which required a learning curve to fully utilize its features. The interface, while functional, could benefit from a more modern and user-friendly design. The pricing structure felt a bit on the higher side compared to some alternatives. Additionally, the system occasionally experienced performance lags, impacting real-time monitoring. Despite these limitations, Teramind remains a powerful employee monitoring solution with valuable features, but it could benefit from addressing these areas for enhancement. Review Source TD Todd D. IT Director Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "An awesome solution for monitoring behavior and productivity" February 2, 2023 5.0 Teramind is an excellent product that enables us to keep close tabs on user activity and prevent data exfiltration. It is easy to install and administer and as powerful as it is, it is very easy to administer. A very well written program! Pros The product is very powerful yet is very easy to administer. I really like the fact that it can be used surreptitiously to monitor behavior, but also used to monitor user productivity. Cons This product is not the least expensive option, however, when you factor in all the features it provides, it is worth it. Review Source R Reviewer File Review Manager Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Terrific Time Tracker" April 1, 2020 4.0 Overall, its great and it works for what it was implemented for. It accurately tracks hours and it is both app and web based so you can use it wherever you go. Pros This app definitely tracks time as long as you stay active. It works and is especially helpful during the shelter in place order we are all experiencing. Its easy to use and can work for employees and independent contractors alike. A great tool, most ideal for small business owners. Cons It will time out and try to reconnect for no apparent reason. It requires you to shut down the program and could require program repair to fully correct. It does not track what programs you are using which would be nice (possibly a upgraded account feature?) This would be helpful to report to the company tracking the hours. Review Source William S. Founder Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Inept Support" October 21, 2020 3.0 The customer experience has been poor. Pros The platform seems to be the most advanced from what we have seen however we have not been able to use it fully or properly since it has not tracked time or tasks properly since day one. Cons Buyer beware. The platform is very advanced from the looks of it but since I have signed up 2 weeks ago, the system hasn't tracked time or tasks properly and after spending hours on remote sessions, chat and email support, the system is still not working and when I request additional support they have nor record of all of the tickets, meetings, etc. As a new customer, this experience has been horrible. Again the platform may be advanced but all that technology doesn't do any good if you can't use it and support can't support you. Review Source R Reviewer Sr. Network Engineer Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "very good services" November 10, 2021 5.0 very good services Pros screen recording, web n apps monitoring, system logs Cons time doctor has not feature of hiding log out access from clients, so clients log out time doctor according to their will which is not good technique for monitoring tool. tera mind is providing these feature in their apps Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Manager Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Strong Data, Some Apple Issues" May 5, 2026 5.0 Overall, the platform is relatively easy to use and provides valuable insight into employee productivity. There is a bit of a learning curve when first getting started, but it becomes more manageable over time. However, we experienced compatibility issues with Apple products and often needed IT support to troubleshoot, especially after system updates. Pros Time Tracking, Reporting, ability to remote in to view live feed of employees working. Able to control screen if necessary Cons The price was a little high, i can understand the value especially for companies with all remote users but the $25 per user per month was a little painful for our small company Review Source R Reviewer IT Manager Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Powerful Monitoring with Customizable Controls" April 8, 2025 5.0 Teramind has been a valuable tool for monitoring and security, offering detailed insights, real-time alerts, and customizable policies. While it enhances productivity and compliance, occasional resource consumption issues and missed notifications could be improved. Overall, it remains a robust solution for user activity monitoring and data protection. Pros Teramind stands out for its comprehensive monitoring capabilities, offering detailed insights into user activity while maintaining data security and compliance. Cons Teramind is powerful, but it sometimes stops monitoring without notifying the assigned manager. Improving alert reliability would enhance its effectiveness. Review Source Verified Reviewer Consultor Independiente Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Fraud Prevention" August 28, 2018 5.0 the product is very easy to use, I have experience in this type of software, your presentation I like. Pros 1\. the dasboard is frendly. 2.-Creation of policies and rules is very easy. 3.-the time worked and the log's is easy to see. Cons 1.-I did not see if you can take the alert system to an email. 2.-I ask, the log's could be stored in a SIEM (Security Information and Event Management) Review Source R Reviewer Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Teramind is raising the bar" May 17, 2017 5.0 As with any company, we have our own set of problem users. Even with best-in-class web and content filters, users tend to find a way to abuse the system. Furthermore, the built-in reporting capabilities of most filtering systems lack any way to pin-point and associate a particular incident with a user. This left us having to manually investigate when problems arose. During our research on a new employee monitoring solution, we trialled several of the major vendors products. All of which were either bloated, outdated, or difficult to setup and use. Thankfully, we found Teramind. We were immediately awestruck by the entire interface of their live demo. Their site also features a live chat that actually connected me directly to a real person after normal business hours, on a weekend! We ended up purchasing the on-pemise version of Teramind, which is available as a VM. This delivery method alleviates the setup difficulty we had with many other products. We then just deployed the hidden agents though group policy making our setup, all in all, entirely automated. To this day, the interface and reporting capabilities of Teramind remain unmatched compared to other products we have tried. Having an actual web interface means I can access Teramind without remoting into the server or installing a console on my administrative workstations. The colored charts and graphs make it easy to distinguish information. There are multiple reports available from website history and email, all the way to keystrokes and printing. Live and recorded sessions from the monitored user's display also enhance our ability to track and view activity. Overall, Teramind is far more advanced than the other competitors. They are definitely raising the bar and I'll back them up any day. Review Source R Reviewer Desktop Support Technician Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Fantastic system with plenty of applications" February 1, 2018 5.0 Retro-active security monitoring, threat management, & system diagnostics. I can't count how many times I've watched a recording because someone complained of a system error, but I had no evidence. Teramind footage is a major help in that regard. Pros Teramind is a very comprehensive monitoring system that has plenty of functionality and customization. If you have plenty of employees, or want to implement a monitoring/tech security application, I would say Teramind is your best bet, if not top 3. The support is definitely knowledgeable in regards to their product which I can appreciate. Bottom line is, with the extensive customization, alert options, and security features, I would recommend Teramind to employers looking to better control how their employees interact with company resources/technology. Cons It can be a bit daunting if you are new to tools of the sort, and monitoring in general. The massive customization, especially with alerts, requires a decent amount of system knowledge, both Teramind & OS. Review Source R Reviewer Information Services Manager Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Excellent Customer Service" February 25, 2020 5.0 Overall, i love the product, but it is pricey Pros The software gives me a peek into the day of a user that needs monitoring Cons It is a little clunky, A little hard to navigate through. Review Source R Reviewer Head Of Operations Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Powerful Employee Monitoring Tool!" December 27, 2019 5.0 All good so far, except the issue that it keeps getting disconnected and I think the system really requires a fast and stable internet connection so everything that's being captured from your PC is uploaded in real-time. Pros I like it when it records videos of the screen activities of our remote employees. It just gives us more peace of mind about what they are all doing throughout the day at work. Cons What I don't really like about it is just it constantly gets disconnected. Maybe cause of the bandwidth issues as the system captures videos of all your screen activities, so it would constantly reboot and all just to make sure all recorded videos are uploaded on the server.
