DeskSight alternative questions

What is a good DeskSight alternative?

It depends on what you need from the tool. If you want all features in a plan, a published price and live screen monitoring, Mera Work is worth a look. If you want a lean base pack and web search tracking, DeskSight covers that.

How much does DeskSight cost?

DeskSight does not publish prices on its website, so this page does not show a cost estimate for it. Ask DeskSight for a quote. Mera Work is $3 per user per month billed yearly or $4 month to month, with the full feature set included.

Is Mera Work cheaper than DeskSight?

That cannot be stated, because DeskSight publishes no prices. Get a quote from DeskSight for your team size and compare it with Mera Work's published price.

Does DeskSight include screenshots?

DeskSight lists screenshot monitoring in its Add on Pack, not in the Basic Pack. In Mera Work, screenshots are part of the plan.

Does Mera Work work on Mac and Linux?

Yes. Mera Work has desktop agents for Windows, Mac and Linux. DeskSight's pricing page lists Windows for its Basic Pack, so check with DeskSight for other systems.

Does Mera Work log keystrokes?

No. Mera Work records keyboard and mouse activity levels, not what is typed.
