Employee monitoring software with screenshots

Clear visibility and insights into how employees work. Even remotely

Our computer monitoring software allows employees, field contractors, and freelancers to manually clock in when they begin working on an assignment. The application will take screenshots randomly or at set intervals, which allows employers to observe the work process. The application only tracks activity when the employee is clocked in. No spying, only transparency.

    Hi dokha, the Windows version of WireShare is only available as a 32bit application and requires a 32bit version of Java. Therefore, if you have a 64bit version of java installed, it cannot be used by WireShare and a 32bit version would need to be installed also. Perhaps a portable version may be released in the future.
  • Thank you very much for the program distributed under a free open license!
