The Challenge: How to effectively manage remote workforce productivity Most organizations now include at least some contingent of remote workers – and that balance is ever shifting. This evolution is met with unique challenges in remote workforce management. Organizations continue to struggle with a lack of visibility into issues like: who does what and how; what does productivity look like for dispersed teams; do tools and systems actually work for remote teams versus those in the office; and how to spot burnout in remote workers. Remote workforce management software tends to be built for in-office teams and adapted to try to accommodate remote employees – often giving an incomplete picture.

Our Approach to Remote Workforce Management and Employee Monitoring Improving the productivity of your remote workforce requires the collection and monitoring of data to establish a baseline upon which you can measure improvement. We know employee monitoring and activity analysis have a mixed history and association with surveillance and heavy oversight.

We designed ActivTrak from an ethical viewpoint: with the fundamental principles of transparency, collaboration and informed insight. We’ve developed a powerful platform that focuses on the collection of contextual data, avoiding invasive employee monitoring technologies like keystroke logging and continuous screenshots. We welcome the users of our product to join us on our journey to move remote workforce management and employee monitoring beyond the era of oversight and into the results and data-driven space that is productivity insights.
