Teramind vs Workstatus (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Teramind if

• Fits if you need to monitor staff screens and flag risky behaviour
• Works for security teams that want cloud or self-hosted data

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want a published price, as the page shows local-currency seat prices only
• Not for you if you only want simple hours, as it is a monitoring product
• Watch out: keystroke logging and SIEM integration start on the UAM tier
• Watch out: recording screens, keystrokes and messages may need consent under local employment and privacy law
• Pricey if you need Enterprise or Government, which is quoted by sales

Pick Workstatus if

• Fits if you are a service firm that wants hours tied to project budgets
• Works for remote teams that want timesheets, shifts and leave in one tool

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you want invoicing and budgets, which start at $13 a user
• Tight if you need GPS, since Field Operations is $3 more a user
• Skip it if you need long history, because data is kept 90 days on Proof and 180 on Profit
• Watch out: session replay and longer retention are paid add-ons, and screenshots need to be disclosed to staff

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.

Workstatus

• Live GPS and geofencing cost extra: the page lists a Field Operations add-on at $3 per user a month.
• Session replay and longer data retention are separate add-ons priced per user.
• Proof keeps 90 days of data and Profit 180 days unless the retention add-on is bought.
• It includes screenshots and activity monitoring, which teams may need to disclose to staff.
