They had difficulty setting realistic targets.Sima says that Digital Web Properties struggled with certain challenges in the beginning: The answer is simple: we want to understand how our employees work.” They sometimes ask why their time needs to be tracked if they’re working from the office. When we conduct an interview, we let our candidates know that their work will be tracked via Hubstaff. Every member of our team-from the COO to our part-time writers-use the tool. “Hubstaff has become part of our company culture. It was an excellent tool for monitoring all team members, including those who work in the office. Hubstaff wasn’t just effective for monitoring the time and performance for remote team members. In August of this year, they’ll move into their third office space to accommodate a team that’s now composed of more than 80 members.ĭigital Web Properties started using Hubstaff to monitor the productivity of remote team members, but as their team grew, they discovered another benefit. By December of 2015, they’d grown to a team of 48, including 26 in-house team members and 22 remote workers. “Monitoring 15 remote workers was proving difficult, so we decided to give Hubstaff’s time tracking software a spin,” says Ioana Sima, the company’s Chief Marketing Officer.īut Digital Web Properties’ growth didn’t stop there.

I imagine most organizations wouldn’t use this feature, but I can see some real value when working with remote contractors you may have never even met.Digital Web Properties is a digital marketing agency based in Romania, founded by a team of five in September of 2014. You can even set up automatic screenshots while employees are working to monitor if employees are working on what they say they are. But then the time tracker will email alerts to inform you right away of any late, missed, or abandoned shifts, so you’ll know about your employee attendance and what they accomplished. The scheduling app provides an easy way to manage your staff schedule. I think what is most intriguing, however, are the employee scheduling and monitoring capabilities. The Hubstaff reporting area is a nice way to see the exact time spent working on project tasks. Integrating Hubstaff and Asana only takes a few minutes and after that there are automatic updates (project teams stay synced). When they’re done working on a task, they can mark it as completed from Hubstaff and the time will be posted to the Asana task. Hubstaff’s Asana time-tracking integration allows employees to track time on their Asana tasks. Hubstaff is a time-tracking and employee monitoring solution available for Windows, Mac, Linux, Chromebook, iOS, and Android. Sign up today for over 45 minutes of free content!
