Employee monitoring

Where is time and money leaking away in your company? MagikINFO monitoring gives you an objective picture of how computers, applications and the internet are used — not to police people, but to make better decisions.

Why it matters

Where productivity leaks away

The question "are people working efficiently?" is usually answered by gut feeling, and ends in guesswork. Yet a computer is the main work tool today, and it leaves a clear trail of which applications and websites get used, and for how long. Without that data, you plan capacity and licences blind.

Monitoring tends to be viewed with suspicion, and rightly so — but it isn't about spying on individuals. It's an aggregated view that reveals patterns: which applications are a bottleneck, how much time goes to unproductive websites, whether printing costs match reality.

Deployed transparently and within clear rules, monitoring is a tool of fairness: it protects people who are doing good work, gives you an objective basis for assessment, and helps catch waste before it shows up in the budget.

“Without data, every decision about productivity is just a more or less educated guess.”

Our approach

Objective data, not guesswork

MagikINFO tracks the use of hardware, applications and visited websites and aggregates the data clearly. You see which applications are actually used, how much time goes where, and how that changes over time.

It also covers monitoring of printing and connected USB devices or file storage — the areas where costs and data most often leak away. You can also restrict access to unwanted applications and websites.

Every output is a report for management and IT alike: clear, aggregated, and usable as a basis for decisions — not a tool for hunting down individuals.

What the solution covers

  • Application monitoring
    Visibility into which applications are actually used, and for how long.
  • Internet tracking
    Website visits and time spent online, in clear reports.
  • Print monitoring
    Who prints how much and on what — a basis for cutting costs.
  • USB and storage control
    Visibility into connected devices and file activity.
  • Access blocking
    Restricting unwanted applications and websites.
  • Reports and statistics
    Aggregated output for management and IT alike.
How it works

How it works in practice

Rolling this out isn't a revolution, and it doesn't take months of preparation. We work through clear steps, and the system starts delivering value almost immediately.

1

Defining the goal

we work out what you want to find out — productivity, print costs, data-leak risks.

2

Transparent rollout

we deploy monitoring in line with internal policy and clear communication to staff.

3

Collection and aggregation

data is collected automatically and assembled into clear reports.

4

Review and action

based on the data, you adjust capacity, licences and usage policy.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is employee monitoring legal?

Yes. Monitoring can be deployed in line with employment law and data protection rules, provided employees are informed and the purpose is legitimate. That purpose can be, for example, a legitimate interest in understanding how IT equipment is used, or strengthening IT security.

Is this about spying on individuals?

The goal is usually an aggregated overview and spotting patterns, not tracking individuals. That said, you set the scope of monitoring according to your own rules. If there's suspicion of something like a security breach, you can also track the risky behaviour of specific individuals.

Can we block specific websites, applications or connected devices?

Yes. Access to unwanted applications and websites can be restricted. You can also block USB drives that aren't on your list of approved devices.

Will this help cut printing costs?

Yes. You'll see who prints how much and on what — usually one of the quickest sources of savings.

Will we see connected USB devices too?

Yes. Monitoring includes visibility into connected devices and file activity, which helps protect sensitive data.
