See which apps and websites your team uses, and how much time is productive

Mera Work records which applications and websites are in use during tracked time and how long they are used. You decide what counts as productive for a department or a person, and the reports use your labels.

What you get from app and website monitoring

See which tools your team uses, for how long, and how much of that time is productive.

Productive time, defined by you

Apps and websites are grouped into ready made categories such as Communication, Development & IT or Social Media. You mark categories productive or unproductive, and the same tool can count differently for marketing and finance.

See which sites and apps take time away

When unproductive time rises for a person or a team, the report shows which sites and apps are behind it.

Find paid tools nobody uses

Usage data shows which paid applications are rarely opened, which is useful evidence when licences come up for renewal.

Reviews based on the same facts

A manager and a team member can look at the same day and the same labels, so a review starts from facts.

How it works

The agent records which apps and sites are used and groups them into categories. You decide which count as productive. The reports show the totals.

Apps and websites, with time spent

The Web and Apps report shows active, productive, unproductive and neutral time for the organisation or a person. The Application Usage report answers the other question: who used a particular app or site, and for how long.

  • App or site, start time, end time and duration
  • Organisation and individual views, grouped by manager, location or department
  • Search any application or website by name across a date range
  • The Activity Log places sessions on a 24 hour timeline

Categories and labels set by organisation, department or person

Apps and websites fall into built in categories automatically, and admins set each category as productive or unproductive at organisation, department or individual level. The narrower level wins, so an exception for a team leaves other people's rules as they are. Anything unlabelled is neutral and shown separately from productive and unproductive time.

  • Label a whole category, or an app or site, and build your own categories
  • Edit the built in categories and create your own
  • Changes are logged in the Category Audit
  • Updates apply to historical data after business hours, so old and new reports agree

The same app can be productive for a department and unproductive for another. You set that per department.

Usage data you can share with the person it describes

The agent records which application or page was in use and for how long. A manager and a team member can look at the same report. Mera Work does not read or store the content of emails, messages or passwords, though such content can be visible in a screenshot or live stream if it is shown on screen, and screenshots can be blurred or switched off.

  • Application or site name and time spent
  • Message content and passwords are not read or stored
  • A device flagged as personal follows your bring your own device rules

How to set it up

All of it lives in Configuration under Category. Nothing to reinstall.

01

02

Add department overrides

Give departments the exceptions that fit their work.

03

Handle the individuals

A person level label for the analyst who genuinely needs a tool nobody else does.

04

Check the audit

The Category Audit records changes and who made them, so labels are explainable when someone asks.

Common questions about app and website monitoring

Which applications and websites does Mera Work track?

Any application or website in use on the computer during tracked time, with the time spent in them. Tracking follows the person's work hours and the per user monitoring settings.

Can we decide what counts as productive?

Yes. Mark a category as productive or unproductive at organisation, department or individual level. The narrowest level applies.

Can two departments have different rules for the same tool?

Yes. Classifications can differ by department, and a user level classification can override both.

Does Mera Work read emails or chat messages?

No. It records that the application or site was in use and for how long. Mera Work does not read or store message content, typed text or passwords, though such content can appear in a screenshot or live stream if it is on screen, and screenshots can be blurred or switched off.

Can I see when an application was used?

Yes. Reports show the app or site with its start time, end time and duration, and the Activity Log places it on a 24 hour timeline.

Can team members see their own usage?

Access follows roles. A user role sees their own record where the admin allows it, and managers see the teams that report to them.

Label your tools once. Reports and dashboards use those labels.
