Work activity analysis in practice
Review work patterns
Combine active time, idle time, and usage trends to identify periods that warrant a closer look.
Activity states represent collected records, not work outcomes.
Understand tool usage
Review application and website distribution and activity details to understand everyday tool use.
Interpret tool use in the context of roles and actual tasks.
Maintain classification rules
Review unclassified applications and coverage, then adjust categories to reflect actual business use.
Categories are organizational settings, not absolute judgments about a tool.
Compare teams consistently
Compare authorized teams and subjects over the same period and classification basis to identify process improvement opportunities.
Rankings alone should not be used to assess teams with different responsibilities.
Investigate interruptions
Use activity heatmaps and switching indicators to find periods of frequent transitions worth investigating.
Switching indicators do not establish the cause or exact duration of lost time.
Review recurring reports
Generate reports on schedule, review execution results, and export available reports to track changes consistently.
Interpret reports alongside business context and actual work outcomes.
Analyze a clearly defined data scope
Base interpretation on actual collection and classification rules, with a consistent view of what the data represents.
- Available data depends on endpoint collection capabilities, enabled policies, and actual collection scope. Uncollected activity is not inferred as fact.
- Administrators access objects and teams within their permissions. Define organizational data-use rules and employee notice requirements before use.
- Activity duration, classification scores, and switching indicators support analysis. They are not direct measures of business output or individual performance.
Application and website usage
Review activity, usage distribution, and details to understand how everyday tools are used.
Explore usage duration, distribution, and details for applications and websites within the actual collection scope.
Interpret the records in context: the subject, time period, and business activity all matter. Do not treat uncollected activity as known.
Productivity classification
Maintain categories, review unclassified applications, and inspect classification coverage.
Assign application productivity categories according to business needs. The same tool can serve different purposes in different roles.
Review unclassified applications and coverage, then interpret results using the relevant classification settings.
Focus and switching analysis
Use activity heatmaps and switching indicators to explore work patterns and activity transitions.
Review activity distribution across time periods and use switching indicators to identify interruptions worth investigating.
These measures are calculated from collected activity. They do not directly measure attention or precise amounts of lost working time.
Periodic reports
Configure reporting tasks, review execution results, and export HTML or JSON for review.
Set up report tasks and schedules, and review task status and generated reports.
Export available reports as HTML or JSON within your permissions. Use a consistent period and classification basis for recurring reviews.
