Frequently Asked Questions

The questions IT and HR leaders ask before signing.

Effective employee computer monitoring rests on four steps: disclose, configure, restrict, and review.

  • Disclose: Update your acceptable use policy and employment agreements to state what is monitored, why, and how the data is used. Covert monitoring is legally risky in most jurisdictions, including the EU under GDPR and several US states.
  • Configure: Deploy a transparent employee monitoring platform like CurrentWare to capture only what your policy specifies, applications, web activity, and idle time.
  • Restrict: Use role based access so only authorized reviewers, typically IT security and designated HR, can see employee level data. Set retention windows and automatic deletion.
  • Review: Build reports around the business question (productivity, attendance, coaching), not raw surveillance. Aggregate before going granular. Investigate exceptions, not everyone.

Yes. The agent reports whether the endpoint is on-network, off-network via VPN, or fully remote. All activity and productivity features work the same. MDM deployment supports BYOD.

The differences buyers cite when comparing software for monitoring employees: (1) role-aware productivity classification instead of generic active/idle scores; (2) full on-premise deployment for organizations that can't or won't send activity data to a vendor cloud; (3) transparent monitoring controls employees can see, which most surveillance-first tools quietly skip; (4) pricing that doesn't escalate as you add reports. We're a strong fit for IT-led mid-market buyers. Less of a fit if you only want lightweight time-tracking with no policy enforcement.

Both modes are supported. We recommend transparent deployment for most organizations: visible notifications, branded tray, and employee-facing dashboards. A lower-profile mode is available for sanctioned investigations — typically with legal sign-off.

Configurable per policy. Common signals: applications used, websites visited, active vs idle time, and bandwidth use per user. You decide what's captured, for how long, and who can review it.

The agent runs as a protected service with anti-tamper protections. Local admin escalation, service termination, and uninstall attempts are blocked and logged.

Per-employee pricing with volume discounts at mid-market scale. Most 100–1,000-seat customers land between the cost of one full-time analyst and a single security incident. Book a 20-minute scoping call for a quote tied to your environment.

Windows 10/11 and Windows Server are fully supported. macOS support is available for core activity monitoring. Linux endpoint support is on the roadmap — let us know if it's a deal-breaker.
