Ask HN: How do you track your or your employees productivity on the browser?

2 points by chkte 8 years ago | 6 comments

Do you use a browser extension to log your employees activity, or your own activity? I'm looking for a SaaS that provides a Chrome extension + an admin panel where I can see the data. Thanks in advance!

Instead of spying on your employees, and measuring something that isn't likely to be their productivity, maybe figure out what you can do to motivate them or make their life easier:

1. Pay more.

2. Better UX/UI.

etc.

Not for me, actually :(. You are right.

EU data protection law prohibits u from doing that, so be careful with remote working people that work from Europe

Didn't know that, but my boss asked me if something like this existed. The company is based in the USA but I work remotely from Europe.

In my country that's highly illegal... Be sure to check first.
