Whatever you end up choosing, these are the eight questions that separate a measurement system your org will trust from one it will fight.
Look for team trends, relevant device signals, and a way to review whether an intervention helped.
Ask what data is collected, why it is needed, and whether employees can see it.
Time totals aren't enough. Ask whether the platform shows device posture (encryption, patch level, antivirus), data-movement visibility, and fleet-wide risk ranking — or whether that's a separate tool you'll have to buy and babysit.
Machines should enroll pending approval, report only once approved, and be remotely uninstallable at offboarding. Ask how the vendor handles a stolen laptop or a departed contractor.
One productive/unproductive list for the whole company is unfair by construction. Insist on global rules plus per-department overrides, and a neutral 'unmarked' state for ambiguous time.
A classified activity score can describe time against configured rules; it does not by itself measure work quality or employee experience.
Leaders need org KPIs, expected-vs-actual trends, and department comparisons before individual drilldowns. Tools that lead with per-person feeds invite micromanagement.
People should see their own timeline, activity, and scores. Transparency is the difference between a rollout that sticks and one that gets quietly sabotaged.
The agent runs on every machine, all day. Demand visibility into its own CPU and memory usage, plus accessible daemon, installer, and upgrade logs when something misbehaves.
Agencies, BPOs, and holding companies need true multi-tenant isolation — separate rules, settings, and data per organisation, not one workspace with folders.
Ask whether it shows team adoption and sustained after-hours trends that warrant a conversation.
Where Momentum fits — and where it doesn't
No tool wins every evaluation. Here's ours, stated plainly.
