Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.0
GPA, above 8 of the 98 other time tracking apps we grade
Veriato is employee monitoring software sold in two products: User Activity Monitoring (UAM), which records on-site, remote and hybrid activity, and Insider Risk Management (IRM), which adds risk scoring and behavior analytics. It watches emails, chats, websites, applications, screenshots, idle time and keystrokes, and can be deployed in the cloud or on premises.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Veriato, taken from its own pages and our grades.
Agents have to be deployed, with cloud or on-premises options.
- 1
Best for monitoring staff activity and insider risk
Veriato records email, chat, websites, screenshots and keystrokes and scores productivity for $18 a user a month.
- 2
Paid plans start at $18 a month for each person
As its pricing page puts it: $18 per user / month, billed annually.
- 3
You can try it first
Free trial available on request; length not stated
- 4
It runs on 3 platforms
Windows, macOS and Android.
- 5
Broad activity telemetry

- 6

Productivity scores and configurable reports and dashboards help show how on-site, remote and hybrid staff spend their time.
- 7
Alerts and recording policies
Alerting can be configured without a stated limit, and recording policies are flexible, with sensitive data detection and redaction.
- 8
A 2.0 GPA, above 8 of 98
That is against the other time tracking apps we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
The plain part of Veriato you could make: time tracking and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 7 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.

The report card
Best for monitoring staff activity and insider risk
Veriato records email, chat, websites, screenshots and keystrokes and scores productivity for $18 a user a month. But it needs at least 5 users, the risk-scoring product needs 20 and a quote, and it is a monitoring tool, not a timesheet.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | $18 a user a month on annual billing, with a 5-user minimum. That's well above the $10 dearer quarter of time trackers and just under the $19 dearest tenth. |
| Free plan and trial | D | A free trial is available on request, and its length isn't stated. |
| Features | C | Records a wide range of activity and scores productivity, with alerts and redaction. It doesn't do timesheets or invoicing. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record. Agents have to be deployed, with cloud or on-premises options. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Windows, Mac, Chrome and Android, plus a Microsoft 365 link and a REST API. Linux isn't listed. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Veriato is for
- Fits if you need a record of staff activity for compliance and have 5 or more people
- Works for security teams that want risk scores on top of activity logs
Who it is not for
- Skip it if you need timesheets or billing, because it's monitoring only
- Pricey if you add up the floor: 5 users at $18 is $90 a month
- Not for you if you want risk scoring without a quote, as that product needs 20 users
- Watch out: it captures keystrokes, screenshots and chats, so consent and local law need checking
Good to know
Good for
- Security and compliance teams running workplace investigations
- Regulated sectors such as financial services and healthcare, as the vendor's industry pages suggest
- Companies that want activity monitoring priced per user, not per device
Worth knowing
- Only UAM shows a price; IRM requires a quote and at least 20 users.
- Monitoring covers keystrokes, screenshots and chats, so consent and local employment law need checking.
- Devices covered are Windows, Mac, Chrome and Android, according to the pricing FAQ; Linux is not listed.
- It is a monitoring product, not a timesheet or invoicing tool.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
The plain part of Veriato you could make: time tracking and reports. What surrounds it you could not. The 7 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 76 of the 98 other time tracking apps grade higher. It costs $216 a year.
What you could make
- Time tracking and reports: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Capture tools hooked into the operating system.
- Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
- Apps for macOS, Windows and Android that stay in step with each other.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- It plugs into other products, Microsoft 365 among them, and has an API.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: audit logs.
What this rests on. Veriato’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
