An effective product that increases productivity

What differentiates DeskTime from other similar products?

I was specifically seeking a way to do a personal time study, and audit my time spent on specific tasks. This has been helpful in tracking use of apps and time spent on specific sites, but would not use it for project / task management.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

It is interesting to see the amount of time spent working in each app and webpage. That is something unique to this software that I have not found with the other software I have used for time study purposes.

What do you dislike most about this product?

For me, It is crucial that the software that's being used by so many of our coworkers remain user-friendly and easily accessible for everyone. DeskTime absolutely delivers in that regard!

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Available screenshots every 15 minutes Ability to enter manual entries especially when the app fails to connect. Reports for most productive and Least productive

Pros

Helps Innovate
Continually Improving Product
Performance Enhancing
Friendly Negotiation

I wanted to track productivity, just doesn't do it

Likeliness to Recommend

2 /10

What differentiates DeskTime from other similar products?

DeskTime has a lot of additional features, but those weren't the ones I was looking for. I just need a productivity tracker (time spend working vs time spend inactive, some simple stopwatches, and alerts), but that wasn't it.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The productivity tracker distinguishing productive and unproductive apps/websites

What do you dislike most about this product?

too much extra fluff. The alerts don't work!!! That drove me up the wall, I put on a personalized work/break schedule, but the alerts came through very irregularly.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If you're looking for a simple productivity app for 1 user only, reconsider your options.

Pros

Security Protects
Enables Productivity
Inspires Innovation
Caring

Cons

Commodity Features
Less Performance Enhancing
Less Reliable
