Product

ActivTrak is a workforce analytics and productivity platform that provides insights into workforce productivity through reports, dashboards, and data analysis.

The ActivTrak platform uses machine learning (AI) to collect and analyze user activity data and generate insights about workforce productivity. ActivTrak natively supports Windows, Mac, Chrome, Terminal Services, and VDI.

The ActivTrak Agent runs in the background while collecting data, executing responses to user activity, and sensing mouse and keyboard movement in the active window(s) of the user's computer. All data is collected and stored in a dedicated ActivTrak Database that aggregates the data based on the user's request. Using data analytics, the Database generates account and team benchmarks and identifies productivity patterns and outliers.
