Activity Logs: Know What's Happening on Every Endpoint
A granular, time-stamped record of every app, website, and URL accessed on the desktop agent. Give IT, security, and compliance leaders the evidence they need for audits and policy enforcement.
Activity data isn't detailed enough for compliance
Most reports show categories of activity, not the actual apps, sites, or URLs in use. When IT or security need specific answers, the detail isn't there.
Capture exactly what happened, down to the URL
Every event is captured with the date, time, duration, app, site, URL, and employee responsible. Search and filter by any field to surface the exact answer you need.
Per-Event Timestamp
See every app and site accessed, down to the second.
Full URL Visibility
Capture exact URLs, not just domains.
Granular Filtering
Search by employee, computer, app, title (or word within title), URL, or category.
Domain Labeling
Mark specific domains as productive or unproductive.
Endpoint-Level Detail
Tie every event to a specific alias and device ID.
Use cases
Auditors ask for proof of what happened, when, and by whom. Activity Logs gives you a time-stamped record of every app, site, and URL accessed. Answer specific questions without reconstructing events from scattered data.
Acceptable use policies only work if you can verify them. Activity Logs shows which apps, sites, and URLs employees actually use, including ones policy says they shouldn't. Spot violations early and act before they escalate.
Regulated industries and enterprise compliance frameworks require records of digital activity, but managers shouldn't have to police it day-to-day. Activity Logs gives IT and compliance the audit-ready record they need, kept separate from day-to-day team management.
