Pros

“The only one thing I like about Hubstaff is that you can open the dashboard and view your time which will show not only how many hours you have worked in a given time period and earnings, but every time you stopped working and your efficiency level.”

Shannn H.

Billing Team Lead

“The GPS tracking for field based team members was a specific win, job site hours that used to be self reported and occasionally inconsistent became verifiable without any awkward conversations.”

Crispin W.

Director of E-Commerce and Digital Strategy

“The automated time tracking and activity reports reduce a lot of manual follow-up, and the ability to see who’s currently clocked in helps keep operations running smoothly”

Nava A.

Assistant Manager

Pros

“Its intuitive dashboards, detailed reporting, and real-time insights help teams make data-driven decisions, improve efficiency, and support healthier work habits.”

Rich W.

Executive Director

“By having reliable insights into individual and team activity levels, we can improve scheduling, allocate resources more effectively, and ensure accountability across departments.”

ROBERTO B.

Manager

“At the same time, many of the additional reports and features included at that level aren’t ones we regularly use. While ActivTrak offers a robust set of tools, the platform can feel a bit heavy with bells and whistles for organizations that have more focused or straightforward monitoring needs.”

Derek D.

Chief Information Officer

Cons

“The thing I do not like about Hubstaff is when you are idle for 5 minutes your time not only stops, but takes away the five minutes from where you stopped.”

Shannn H.

Billing Team Lead

“Cant find anything, even if you pay the system is very complicated, i am use to working with ui, and i even design ui myself, you are currently compiting with facebook managers for the baddest ui of all times.”

Niv B.

programmer

“Screenshot frequency needs to be calibrated early on otherwise it feels intrusive.”

Crispin W.

Director of E-Commerce and Digital Strategy

Cons

“Some features are not as intuitive as they could be, and it can take extra time to find specific information or reports. Once you become familiar with the layout, it does offer valuable insights and tracking capabilities, but the learning curve can be frustrating at first.”

Ashley D.

CCM

“The absence of a true video-recording option further limits the ability to review continuous activity or reconstruct events accurately.”

ROBERTO B.

Manager

“Instead, I got the same recycled explanation about notice periods. If you do business with ActivTrak, watch your renewal date very carefully, because once they renew you, do not expect much flexibility or a real conversation.”

Leo P.

CFO
