Navigating Workforce Optimization
Workforce optimization can be complicated and time-consuming.

Logs are maintained on employee’s real-time activities like programs they use and sites they visit. That data is then used to create a specialized User Activity Report that breaks down their productive workflow. You get to see which tasks are giving your employees the most difficulty and what is distracting them online—like social media or streaming sites like Netflix.
