Common questions about employee monitoring with Kaizen Focus.
Yes, employee monitoring is legal in most jurisdictions when employees are informed. We recommend being transparent with your team about the monitoring and including it in your employment policies. Kaizen Focus is designed to be a productivity tool, not a surveillance tool.
Yes, in Employee-Employer mode, employees can request to pause tracking. However, this requires admin approval which can be done remotely via email in the PRO version. This provides flexibility while maintaining accountability.
Our location tracking uses the same technology as Microsoft and is accurate to within 100 meters in most cases. Unlike IP-based location which can be off by miles, we provide real physical location tracking that's reliable for verifying work-from-home or designated work locations.
No! Kaizen Focus works completely without any browser extensions. Unlike other tools that require you to install extensions for each browser (which can be easily disabled), our application tracks all browsers automatically right out of the box.
Reports include: application usage details, website browsing history, screenshot collages, activity timeline (24-hour view), work hour target achievement status, location history, and rules broken alerts. Reports can be sent daily, weekly, or monthly and exported to PDF.
The restrictions are enforced at the system level and only the admin can unlock the screen when rules are broken. Employees cannot uninstall or disable the application without admin password. They can request a pause which requires admin approval.
No, your data stays completely local on your machine. Unlike other monitoring tools that send your data to their servers (raising privacy concerns), Kaizen Focus keeps everything on your computer. Your data is yours.
App Groups is a unique feature that lets you combine multiple applications into one group with a shared time limit. For example, you can group YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and games together and set a combined 1-hour limit. This prevents employees from using all their allowed time on multiple distracting apps.
