I'm a Content Strategist juggling competing clients and frantic deadlines. I use Monitask to monitor time spent with my team simply. The privacy-respecting screenshot feature is a nice compromise it still focuses on accountability, but doesn’t make the team feel too monitored. The daily and weekly summary reports are perfect; I love them! They’re a huge time-saver for me when I have to get these project updates out the door for our clients, and they remind me of where we are spending our creative energies.

I mean, in hotels, the payroll is your biggest cost after the food. My problem was always: How do I know whether that cost is working for me? With Monitask, I know. The kitchen and banquet service teams I manage log tasks on the tablets we have stationed throughout – “Wedding Prep: Bella Vista Room,” “AM Kitchen Line Setup,” “Inventory Count: Beverage.” The geofence also means no more buddy punching the clock-in is automatic when they hit the hotel property. Best of all, however, are the timed screenshots. I don’t watch them live, but I could use them to find out what’s going on in a big event setup. It showed me one time that a setup crew was waiting 45 minutes for a shipment of linen which was the vendor’s fault, not my staff slacking. That kind of proof is gold.

Monitask allows my team to hold themselves accountable and show me the proof of their work without a lack of trust feeling. The fuzzy screenshots are a nice fit they confirm that work is being done without invading the personal privacy of your employees. "My favorite part is the ease with which I am able to log time against specific project tasks and easily pull reports to understand where hours are being utilized." The easy daily and weekly summaries save me a bunch of manual effort, and keep everyone up to date with the most accurate live data.
