Employee Monitoring Built for Better Decisions
A monitoring system should help leaders understand work, identify operational friction, protect business data, and respond to technical problems. It should not turn an isolated metric into a judgment.
DeskGate organizes workforce activity around employees, groups, computers, schedules, applications, websites, policies, reports, and alerts. Managers can begin with a summary and narrow the scope only when a legitimate business question requires additional detail. This creates a repeatable review process across departments and locations.
Because DeskGate is self-hosted, monitoring records remain on infrastructure controlled by your organization. Your teams define access roles, retention, backups, network protections, review responsibilities, and the policies that govern how evidence is used.
Core monitoring capabilities
See the Signals That Shape Digital Work
Combine multiple sources of context instead of relying on a single productivity score.
Website Activity
Review visited destinations and time patterns with employee, group, device, date, category, and business-purpose context.
Active Work Time
Compare active and passive periods against defined schedules while recognizing meetings, calls, planning, and offline responsibilities.
Policy Controls
Manage application, URL, USB, and time-based restrictions through centralized policies assigned to the appropriate groups.
Time and activity analysis
Put Active and Passive Time in the Right Context
Computer interaction is one part of work, not a complete definition of productivity.
DeskGate daily activity reports help authorized reviewers see when endpoint interaction occurred inside a selected work window. Application intervals, website activity, schedules, and offline meeting time provide context around those periods.
This makes it easier to identify workload gaps, process delays, recurring distractions, or possible technical issues without assuming every inactive minute is non-work time. Teams can compare relevant roles and schedules, discuss the surrounding circumstances, and document a fair response.

Protect Data with Traceable Endpoint Evidence
Use focused records and alerts to investigate relevant events while limiting detailed evidence to authorized roles.
USB, Screen, and Keyboard Evidence
USB activity can document file creation, deletion, and renaming on removable media. Authorized screen records can reconstruct visual events for support, quality review, or incident investigation. Application-level keyboard evidence can support exceptional cases where a documented purpose and appropriate authority exist.
These capabilities can reveal sensitive information. Organizations should enable only what is necessary, communicate the approved scope, restrict detailed access, and define retention before collection begins.
DeskGate provides the technical controls. Your organization remains responsible for lawful, transparent, and proportionate use.
Central administration
Manage Teams, Devices, Policies, and Reports in One Place
DeskGate connects employee monitoring with the administrative structure required to operate it consistently.
Employees and groups: organize review scope around the structure of your workforce.
Endpoints and inventory: see connected computers, software, assets, and operational status.
Schedules and policies: apply relevant work windows, classifications, restrictions, and alerts.
Reports and support: connect management insight with remote assistance and documented follow-up.
Responsible deployment
A Clear Process for Accountable Employee Monitoring
Strong governance begins before the first endpoint is monitored.
Define the business purpose, identify the smallest necessary scope, assign access roles, publish an understandable employee notice, and establish retention and escalation rules. Reviewers should start with summaries, confirm relevant context, and document actions instead of treating software output as an automatic verdict.
Define Purpose and Scope
Map each enabled capability to a legitimate operational, security, compliance, or support requirement.
Configure and Communicate
Apply group policies and schedules, restrict sensitive access, and explain what is collected and why.
Review and Improve
Audit permissions, policies, alerts, retention, and outcomes as the organization and its risks change.
