"Makes it easy to track user activity in many ways"

5/5

What do you like best about CurrentWare?

I like it because the interface is very simple. Provides valuable insights into my team's productivity. The application provides information in real time. I love easy-to-use research reports. Offer a comprehensive way to track. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for your review, Vinicius!

I'm happy to hear that you've found CurrentWare's user activity reports valuable and intuitive.

We'd love to get more details about some of the difficulties you highlighted; can you please reach out to your account manager so they can get more details that we can pass on to our support and product development teams?

We strive to keep our product accessible to everyone regardless of their technical background so if there is anything we can do to improve the way our diverse feature set is communicated and accessed we'd love to know! In the meantime, you can use our onboarding guide for a curated sample of the most important features and settings: https://www.currentware.com/get-started/

The CurrentWare client does not require a continuous internet connection to track user activity; it will cache the last received security policies and user activity data locally until a connection to the central management software is re-established.

"Program that produces Detailed Reports for Strategic Decisions."

4.5/5

What do you like best about CurrentWare?

The way CurrentWare encourages productive collaboration is really remarkable to me. The program's integrated security measures and its capacity to connect with other apps substantially improve collaboration and communication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about CurrentWare?

There doesn't seem to be any way to connect CurrentWare to other systems when I'm using it. It would be helpful if there was a better way to link and sync data with third-party tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for your review, Michael!

We appreciate your feedback about the lack of an API/official data connector for CurrentWare and I'll make sure our product development team is aware of the demand for this sort of integration. In the meantime, all of the data captured by the CurrentWare Suite is kept in either the default SQL Express database or in your existing SQL database, depending on what you chose during installation; if you have the resources a custom solution could be created.

Thank you for your review!

Terribly sorry to hear the deployment via the built-in remote client install tool was not successful—Remote deployment tools can be interrupted by firewalls, security tools, insufficient permissions, User Access Control (UAC), etc. You can see our troubleshooting steps here: https://www.currentware.com/support/troubleshoot-remote-client-install/

Our support team will gladly assist you with remote deployment should you ever need to deploy additional clients. We also provide guides for deploying via PDQ Deploy, Intune, and Active Directory with a Batch File.

Thank you for being a CurrentWare customer!
