Work Examiner

A powerful solution for monitoring corporate work time with enhanced security and scalability. This employee tracking software is a perfect fit for all companies above 100 employees.

Work Examiner Professional
In large companies, the key indexes of efficiency are quite often connected with the evaluation of ultimate results of the personnel’s performance, but the qualitative component, as well as lost opportunities aren’t taken into account. An employee can formally spend a day carrying out some task, which actually takes only a couple of hours to accomplish.
Work Examiner Professional is a solution that will help you to perform a qualitative analysis of the usage of worktime and find the points where the efficiency of the personnel increases. Work Examiner Professional every manager will know how the employees’ time is spent. Thus, the system shows the bottom-up pattern of the usage of the company’s time on all the necessary control levels (division->section->department).
Work Examiner Professional was created for the needs of medium and large business and is intended for use by top managers, middle management and HR department specialists.

Work Examiner Professional will allow you to:
  • Increase the efficiency of employees
  • Reduce the use of computers for personal needs
  • Plan the amount of time and human resources more precisely
Web Usage Control
Web time usage analytics

Our powerful analytics engine will give you a wealth of stats on how web surfing time at your company is distributed between users, computers, user groups, departments, sites, website categories and even by days of the week, dates and hours!
Unlike other Internet monitoring tools, Work Examiner not only collects data about the website address and the date of access, but it also calculates the amount of time that the user spent on the site (including active and idle time).
Web time usage analytics will give you answers to numerous questions such as these:
  • What websites do your employees devote the most time to?
  • Which of your employees spends the most time online?
  • Between which website groups is time online distributed?
Thanks to the huge website content database, you do not need to organize sites by groups — this is done automatically. If you still desire to anyway, you can arrange sites using 80 customizable built-in categories.

Detailed web access reports

Work Examiner logs all HTTP/HTTPS requests, including them in a detailed web usage report with several parameters: user, computer, start time, end time, website, URL, window title and active/inactive/total time. Thanks to this report, you will always know who has visited which URL and when.
webusage
Web filtering

Web filtering works with any type of Internet connection. Web filtering rules allow you to:
  • Block sites by URL, content keyword, built-in category or URL mask
  • Use auto-updatable website content database with 2.300.000+ domains and 80+ categories
  • Block all sites except for specified ones
  • Specify users, user groups, computers and departments to apply the rule to
  • Apply web filtering rules to some or all employees
  • Show a custom “Access Denied” page
  • Redirect to your corporate website (or any other URL) instead of showing the “Access Denied” page
  • Apply a filtering rule with a delay
  • Do not block a site, but display an alert instead
  • Close TCP ports
  • Filter requests from specified programs only
  • Block HTTPS websites
webusage
Web Access Alerts and Messages

Get e-mail notifications when specified web sites are accessed, including the username, computer, time, URL and web filter action description (was the request blocked or not). The e-mail message text can be customized.
Employees can also view a visible, customizable message when they access a restricted page. This is useful when a page is not blocked but you want to alert the user.
Any web rule can be applied with a delay and custom “before apply” messages can also be used. For example, every five minutes, users can see a message such as “You have 30 minutes of free web surfing remaining for today,” “You have 25 minutes of free web surfing remaining for today,” “...20 minutes...” and so on.
webusage
Web Usage Timer

This is a logical complement to user alert functions. You can show a special real-time counter on top of restricted websites. The timer will show the time left before applying the filtering rule, which is counted down each second while the user is surfing the site. The timer is placed so as to avoid interfering with the user: the timer is hidden on allowed pages and shown only on restricted ones.
webusage
 
Surveillance
Screenshots

Work Examiner allows you to view screenshots from a user's computer in real-time mode with constant refresh, almost like a spy cam.
WE can also take screenshots at regular intervals (every XX seconds) and save them in the database for later viewing. Then watch the saved screenshots just like a movie!
  • All screenshots can be exported as image files
  • Black-and-white, 16-color and 256-color compressed JPEG formats are supported
  • When the user is idle, no screenshots are taken, in order to avoid excessive data capture
  • Recorded screenshots include the active website, application name, window title and time info for quick searching
webusage
Email capture

Our email recording tool helps to reduce leaks of critical information and get a better idea of employee e-mail communications.
Work Examiner can capture and save every email message sent or received through the SMTP and POP3 protocols, as well as MS Exchange messages from MS Outlook.
All e-mail information — Time, From, To, Subject, Body and even Attachments — is captured. You can filter captured emails by any parameter or search messages for keywords.
webusage
Keystroke recording

Keystroke recording captures every key that is pressed by the user. You will see what was typed in any program, whether it's IM chat, on a website, webmail or MS Word. You can even capture the passwords typed in many programs and websites!
All of the necessary items (User, Computer, Website/Application Name, Window Title and Date/Time) are recorded and available for quick searching and data filtering.
You can specify a list of programs to capture keystrokes from, such as web browsers, email clients and MS Office apps.
Both letters/numbers and special keys are recorded and displayed in a useful, easy-to-read style in the report.
webusage
IM recording

Our instant messaging capturing tool can record the most popular IM programs and protocols: Windows Live Messenger 2011, MSN, Google Talk, AIM, Yahoo Mesenger, ICQ and XMPP.
The User, PC, Date/Time and Message are all included in the report. You may search through all messages by keywords to discover what your employees are sharing.
webusage

  • No icons in the taskbar
  • No entries in Start – Programs
  • No entries in Add/Remove Programs
  • No items in Task Manager – Applications
  • and even no items in Task Manager – Processes!
What's more, hidden WE Client modules are protected from being stopped.

webusage
Application Filter

Application filtering allows blocking the start of applications for employees. You can block the start of certain applications or block running all applications except for specified applications.

webusage
Current Activity

With the Current Activity feature, you can see which employees are working at the moment, what websites they are visiting, and what applications are being used.

  • Create WE users from AD data
  • Update user display names
  • Create user groups based on AD security groups
  • Update user group members from the associated AD security group
webusage
Remote client installation

Install Work Examiner clients in two clicks, remotely!
Work Examiner is a client-server application. WE Client must be installed on the employee’s PC. It can be easily and quickly distributed over the network. You can install client modules remotely and do not need to be present on the computers where the program is being installed.
If you have no admin rights, there is another solution: Client Builder.
webusage
Database optimization

Database issues become more and more important when the amount of data increases from month to month. Here are a few ways to optimize database storage:
  • Size control: Configure WE to delete all logs older than a specified number of days/months.
  • Smart data deletion: When you delete an object, the object is processed by a foreground service in parallel. This means no lags in the UI.
  • Load management: Control the frequency of activity data updates and set the frequency of sending and size of client logs.
Using these options, you can enjoy a lightning-quick solution even when monitoring 1000+ PCs!
webusage
Client Builder

If you do not have admin rights, there is another solution to speed up deployment: build a custom WE Client setup package that already includes a WE Server address. The user simply runs it and WE is done!
This feature can also be used together with Active Directory group policies to deploy WE Client for many users.
