Monitor Employee Computer Activity: 5 Smart Strategies

Effectively monitor employee computer activity to boost productivity, secure sensitive data, and maintain compliance. With SentryPC’s cloud-based monitoring and control software, you gain the tools needed to oversee every user’s computer and Internet usage in real time—no matter where your team is located.

1. Real-Time Activity Tracking

Stay ahead of potential issues by watching user actions as they happen. SentryPC records keystrokes, application launches, and website visits with timestamped detail.

  • View live screenshots of user screens.
  • Receive instant updates when restricted apps or sites are accessed.
  • Identify unproductive behavior before it impacts deadlines.

2. Content Filtering and Application Control

Prevent distractions and protect against harmful content by filtering websites, keywords, and applications. SentryPC’s flexible rules let you block or allow content by category or custom schedule.

  • Create blacklists or whitelists for URLs and apps.
  • Set time-based restrictions on social media, gaming, and streaming services.
  • Automatically block malicious or non-work-related keywords in chats and search.

3. Scheduled Usage and Time Management

Balance accountability with trust by defining when employees can use certain applications or access the Internet. With SentryPC’s scheduling features, you control work hours and enforce daily or weekly usage limits.

  • Assign individual or team schedules for computer access.
  • Limit overall screen time to prevent burnout.
  • Pause Internet connectivity during off-hours or breaks.

4. Detailed Reporting and Analytics

Transform raw data into actionable insights using SentryPC’s comprehensive reports and visual charts. Monitor top applications, busiest users, and peak usage times to optimize workflows.

  • Generate PDF or CSV archives of all activity logs.
  • Filter reports by user, device, or time frame.
  • Share custom charts with stakeholders to highlight efficiency gains.
