It might be quite a challenge to manage a number of employees who have PCs at their desks. You may observe your employees. Everybody seems so hardworking. And at the same time they may be simply chatting online or reading news. Should you try to spying on them? Or is there probably a more honest and transparent way of internet monitoring?

Some supervisors had to make hard choices in the past. Only spyware was available for computer monitoring . Spyware is the name for computer applications that make screenshots, copy text entered from the keyboard, watch over traffic. With spyware you have more control than you would want. The problem is that you may lose something else. It is not easy to respect and trust people who spy on you.

Luckily, there is a solution that has been making its way to the market. It is a system of internet monitoring called Work Examiner. It allows for transparent system of monitoring and self monitoring that does not violate privacy, because it monitors the time spent online rather than traffic (unlike various proxies). The flexible reporting system produces a lot of very useful information that you would surely prefer to random print screens done while doing computer monitoring.

Work Examiner comes in two versions: standard and pro. Both versions administer application usage, websites browsed, how much time they spend doing what tasks. Both versions allow restrictions on access to selected websites or applications. The Professional version allows for different access rights to employee statistic so that everybody has only the access to the data the have the right to see.

Recalling the problem we started with, i.e. spying, you may see that using our program you do not get screen shots or some confidential data you do not need. Instead you get cleverly crafted employee monitoring reports regarding the time and application use. More importantly, this system encourages self control and more efficient time use by your underlingsmotivates your workers to use work time more efficiently and self-monitor their own computer use.
