Insightful — Employee time-tracking and workforce analytics with productivity scoring, attendance, and per-project time monitoring.
Why Insightful stands out
The per-project time breakdown is the differentiator for agencies billing hourly across multiple client projects — time entries roll up to project-level reporting automatically.
Who it fits
Agencies and remote teams that bill hourly and need defensible, per-project time records for client invoicing.
The honest limitation
Screenshot/activity-monitoring features can read as surveillance to a team — worth discussing openly with staff before rollout, not just switching it on silently.
Quick start
- Set up projects first, matching your actual client/billing structure
- Have the team install the desktop agent and do a test day before going live
- Configure activity-monitoring settings transparently — tell the team what's tracked
