Worth knowing
InterGuard
- No prices, plans or free trial appear on the site pages read, so cost has to be requested from the vendor.
- The site footer reads 2022, so some pages may be older than the rest of the directory.
- Monitoring includes keystrokes and screenshots, so employee notice and local law need checking.
- A separate Chromebook product exists; desktop agents are described for PC and Mac.
Teramind
- No dollar prices could be read: the pricing page shows per-seat prices in local currency, so none are recorded here.
- Pricing is per seat with a 5-seat starting point on the page's selector, and Enterprise and Government is quoted by sales.
- Keystroke logging, complete forensics and SIEM integration start on the UAM tier, and content-based DLP on the DLP tier.
- Recording screens, keystrokes and messages is invasive, so check local employee-monitoring and privacy law before deploying.

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
