It measures and evaluates the performance of white-collar personnel by monitoring their computer activities and gives you the most realistic performance and cost values. It prevents possible illegal activities and protects your company. **Q:** We do not want to monitor up our personnel outside of working hours. Is this possible? **A:** Yes. With the overtime module, you can organize weekly shifts and determine the hours to follow the personnel. Perwatch will not transmit information outside of these hours. **Q:** Can I define break times for the personnel in some time intervals? **A:** Yes, you can define it. By entering the break times in the overtime definition groups, you can determine when the staff will take a break. **Q:** Can the staff make their own work schedule? **A:** Not for now, but in our next major update, staff will be able to work according to the dynamic overtime system. By choosing the project they will work on, they will be able to start and stop their shifts whenever they want. **Q:** Can I create different working hours for different personnel and departments? **A:** Yes. For Perwatch, you can create separate shift groups for the company, department and personnel and arrange the hours to be followed by the personnel according to your needs. ### Employee Monitoring **Q:** Can we follow the personnel working outside the company? **A:** Yes you can. Thanks to the Perwatch cloud system, it is possible to follow the instant actions of your employees wherever they are in the world. **Q:** Does the system keep logs when not connected to the internet? **A:** Of course. For many important operations, monitoring continues even when there is no internet, by keeping internal records. As soon as the tracking software is online, it synchronizes the recorded data with the cloud. Thus, many activities can tracked even when there is no internet access. **Q:** Which operating systems do you support? **A:** Currently, all Microsoft Windows operating systems Windows 8 and above supported. For macOS, we have support for versions starting from Catalina and later. **Q:** How long does the installation take? **A:** It's pretty short.

If you have an active directory system, you can finish the installation on thousands of computers in a few hours. **Q:** Do you have a still time detection? **A:** Yes, we can. As soon as the system does not detect activity for a certain period of time, it senses that the personnel is outside and activates the outside mode in order not to make a wrong calculation.

The customer can adjust this time between 1 minute and 60 minutes. **Q:** Do you also follow social media conversations or keyboard key inputs? **A:** No. Perwatch is a productivity analysis focused software.
