What is Work Examiner?

Work Examiner is employee monitoring software offered in two on premises editions, Standard and Professional, plus a cloud based edition called WE Controlio. It captures desktop screenshots and low frame rate video for playback, logs keystrokes across applications, chats, and webmail, and provides internet access control with allow and deny rules to block sites by URL, keyword, or category. It also captures email content from webmail and desktop clients including attachments.

On premises licenses are perpetual and priced per PC, decreasing at higher volumes, while the cloud edition is billed per user monthly or annually. Work Examiner is built by EfficientLab, LLC, the same company behind Controlio, and offers a free 30 day trial along with one year of included support and updates on paid licenses.
