ActivTrak vs DeskTime: Which is best for you?

The platform delivers reliable insights into user activity, productivity trends, and workload distribution, which has helped us make better operational decisions.

One limitation of ActivTrak is the snapshot feature, which can feel too restrictive for detailed monitoring needs. While snapshots provide general visibility, they do not always capture enough context to fully understand user activity, especially during critical tasks or potential security concerns.

The most intriguing feature was the ability to choose whether or not to blur screenshots. While other time tracking software also offers screenshot functionality, DeskTime's option to blur sensitive information sets it apart.

If the billing fails in any case, instead of sending the notification to the administrator the software becomes annoying to all the users giving a ping every few mins, which is annoying to the limit of completely unsubscribing from the product.
