Hubstaff tracks employee activity in the following ways:
Screenshots: Hubstaff takes screenshots of employees’ screens up to 3 times per 10 minutes as proof of work.
Employees can control the screenshot settings and access their activity data.
App and URL Tracking: Hubstaff tracks which apps and websites employees use while working. The “Activity > Apps” page shows details like the application used, time spent, and number of sessions. Meanwhile, the “Activity > URLs” page shows websites visited, time spent on each, and the project being tracked.
Activity Levels: Hubstaff calculates activity levels based on the percentage of mouse and keyboard strokes over the total time tracked. They are shown as a percentage bar under each 10-minute segment on the “Activity > Screenshots.”
Manual Time and To-dos: Employees can add notes to indicate what specific tasks they are working on while tracking time. Notes appear on timesheets and help provide context to the work being done.
