StaffWatch — Employee Monitoring Software.

Know what your team is doing. Boost productivity. Protect your business.

Full Visibility Into Your Workforce.

StaffWatch is an employee monitoring and productivity analytics platform built for South African businesses. A lightweight Windows agent installs silently on employee machines and runs in the background — capturing screenshots, tracking application usage, and recording active and idle time throughout the workday.

Real-time dashboards give managers instant visibility into what their team is working on. Detailed reports surface productivity trends, highlight high performers, and flag time that isn't being spent productively.

What is StaffWatch?

StaffWatch is AOLC's in-house workforce-monitoring platform for South African businesses. It tracks staff activity on company devices with POPIA-aligned consent workflow, audit trails, and per-tenant data isolation. Built and operated by AOLC.

Is StaffWatch POPIA-compliant for employee monitoring?

StaffWatch is designed to support POPIA-compliant monitoring. Employees see and accept the monitoring policy at first login, all activity is logged in an immutable audit trail, and access is restricted to nominated administrators. Compliance also depends on the employer's monitoring policy and Section 6 conditions of POPIA being met.

Does StaffWatch require employee acceptance and consent?

Yes — StaffWatch's acceptance workflow requires every staff member to read and accept the monitoring policy before tracking starts. The acceptance is logged with timestamp and an auditable trail. Staff can review the policy at any time.

What does StaffWatch monitor?

StaffWatch tracks application activity, idle time, productive vs unproductive time (categorised by AI), and policy violations. It does not capture keystrokes or screen content by default. The exact monitoring scope is configurable per tenant.

How does StaffWatch differ from foreign monitoring tools?

StaffWatch is built and operated in South Africa by a SA company. Data is stored in country, support is local, and the POPIA workflow is built in rather than retrofitted. Foreign tools (Hubstaff, Time Doctor, etc.) typically route data through US infrastructure.

Can I try StaffWatch?

Yes — StaffWatch offers a free trial. Sign-up is at the StaffWatch trial page, and onboarding takes about 15 minutes for a small team.
