DeskTime Reviews & Product Details

Desktime demonstrates an automatic time tracking capability, and this is done across all apps used in a company

The tool portrays the performance insights of every employee, where their idle and active time are significantly identified

The dashboard is clean and easy to navigate, offering visual guidance on individual performance

Desktime demonstrates valuable mechanisms for assigning tasks and allocating it with time and resources required for easy profitability computing

The employee monitoring is done through screenshots that gives actual time that they use in an application Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Desktime raises issues with privacy, where URL tracking and taking screenshots is quite intrusive and affects users privacy

The program becomes expensive, more so with companies that have larger teams Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can create different groups and schedules for each of the groups, making it more precise to measure productivity as a group, and then I can focus on a specific employee. None of the employees where it was installed have noticed any difference in the performance of the equipment. It works to provide more precise feedback with data, helping to detect problems with employees in terms of understanding or prioritization. It operates transparently, meaning the user doesn't have to do anything. But once the user understands, it is a great help to know if they are being productive.

At the moment, everything seems fine; in more than a year of use, there have been no problems. I would like it to have a lock so that the user cannot deactivate it; it has happened a couple of times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am able to track the hours I work on each customer’s projects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. There is de facto no iOS app, since it prohibits long passwords, so I can’t login to it (despite being able to login no problem on the Windows app); whereas I want to be able to log project time on the move when I don’t have my laptop switched on.

2. On Windows it can only take screenshots every 5 minutes which is WAY too long! Every 5 seconds would be my preference, or even better a screen recording.

3. I used DeskTime 6 years ago and I believe at the time you could edit your application title logs but now it looks like you can’t.

4. The new interface is somewhat clunky, with the same information visible on multiple different pages, sometimes with different information mixed in.

5. It is very difficult to know when a project is started because the system tray icon for idle and running are too similar; they should probably be different colours or flash when idle. This means that I often forget to start or stop a project.

6. When idle it continues taking screenshots and logging application titles, unless you enable private time; whereas I want to disable screenshots and tracking on idle. This means that when I show my customers their report, they’re seeing my YouTube videos etc in their log - not good!

I am highly likely to switch to a different company when I have time to try another. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing we have get completely bad experience Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DeskTime renewed our annual subscription without consent and charged Rs 1,23,199, up from our previous price of Rs 73,920 — a 67% increase with no notice.

We contacted their support for a refund or price adjustment, but they refused without any valid explanation.

This is unethical billing, and the lack of accountability is unacceptable. Would not recommend DeskTime to any business that values transparency or fair customer service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Desktime monitoring all the activity very deeply even the small activity can be seen in the dashboard Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One things i have oberserved is that it works very in windows system but in linux based like ubuntu is lacking the bit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like the most about DeskTime is its accuracy in tracking time and monitoring employee productivity based on the parameters we, as administrators, define. It captures screenshots regularly—no matter how many monitors the employee uses—which adds an extra layer of visibility and accountability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I don't like as much is that the reports can be a bit confusing and definitely have room for improvement, both visually and statistically. It would also be great if there were an option to record short videos of employees' work sessions for even deeper insights. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DeskTime: Great, But with Some Limitations

While DeskTime offers excellent time-tracking and productivity insights, there are a few aspects that could be improved. The automatic tracking feature is helpful, but

pricing a bit high, especially for smaller teams or individual professionals. A more flexible pricing structure could make it more accessible.

Despite these minor drawbacks, DeskTime remains a powerful tool for productivity tracking, and with a few tweaks, it could be even better! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Since I started using DeskTime, I've noticed a big difference in how I organize my days. It allows me to see where I spend my time and easily spot distractions or tasks that take longer than expected. Thanks to its reports and automatic tracking, I can plan better, prioritize what’s important, and stay focused. It's a very useful tool if you're looking to improve your productivity and get a clear overview of your daily work. Highly recommended! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, I'm very satisfied with DeskTime, but if I had to point out something to improve, it would be the accuracy of the automatic activity tracking. Sometimes it classifies certain apps or websites as "unproductive" when I'm actually using them for work-related tasks. It would be great if category customization were a bit more intuitive or automated. That said, it's still a very useful tool Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Desktime is very userfriendly and also me and my team can manage time and workflow, and mainly as project lead i can measure the productivity of my employees with its in dept application usage details such as which all sites they have visted in browser and other applications.

The only thing i have noticed that Desktime cannot be started from system start by default, i need to start manually or configure it in startup application, it there is an option to run this application on startup it will be very useful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
