Hubstaff is a great tool for managing remote employees. Its milestone-based task organization makes it especially practical. One of its strongest features is the ability to indirectly monitor employees’ screens, which gives Hubstaff real power as a management tool. However, this same feature can also be seen as a downside. Employees need to be fully aware that their screens may be monitored, which could potentially lead to misunderstandings. That said, it’s important to note that this feature can easily be turned off — so it’s not a major issue. Another point of criticism is the somewhat cluttered and overly complex menu navigation. While it offers a wide range of features that leave little to be desired, its complexity can be a bit overwhelming.
