(Project Overview)

Who we built this for

Client Background

A productivity software company building a monitoring and time-tracking platform for distributed teams.

The Challenge

Managers needed a clearer way to track attendance, productive hours, idle time, app usage, workload balance, and user activity across office, remote, and hybrid teams without jumping between disconnected reports.

Our Solution

Designed and built a modern workforce analytics dashboard with time tracking, screencast reviews, report filters, user management, integrations, and configurable productivity settings.

(The Challenge)

Problems we were brought in to solve

01

Manual Data Entry Overload

Staff were spending 6+ hours daily copying data between spreadsheets, supplier emails, and the ERP system — a process prone to errors and delays.

02

No Real-Time Visibility

Managers had no single view of workflow status. Every update required manually checking multiple systems or calling the operations team.

03

Fragmented Communication

Supplier onboarding involved 12-step email chains. A single missed reply could delay freight clearance by days.

04

Legacy System Constraints

The existing ERP had no public API. Any integration had to be built around screen scraping and CSV exports — brittle and slow.

(Our Solution)

How we solved it

We created a complete Clocklog product experience for monitoring team productivity, helping organizations understand attendance, tracked time, idle minutes, service usage, distraction alerts, and workload balance from one dashboard.

The platform includes screencast timelines, activity logs, website and app classification, company settings, user management, integrations, scheduled reports, and release updates so teams can run day-to-day monitoring with less manual coordination.

What We Built

  • Attendance summary with present, absent, late, productive hours, idle time, and total tracked time
  • Screencast monitoring with user, category, timezone, and date filters
  • Activity log and report views for web/app usage, productivity status, and idle minutes
  • Website and app classification with productivity tagging and duration tracking
  • User management for roles, shifts, locations, teams, projects, and pending invites
  • Company settings for work schedules, projects, teams, alerts, scheduled reports, and achievements
  • Integrations for Dropbox, Slack, Azure DevOps, and GitHub task syncing
  • Latest updates area for release notes and guided account setup communication
