People call it bossware when the monitoring goes too far. For example, when it is hidden, excessive, unrelated to business needs, or used to punish workers. Here is a simple example. A visible timer that records billable hours is ordinary time tracking. And secretly recording an employee's screen after hours is bossware. Not every kind of monitoring is bossware. The line depends on four things.

You've tried logging hours at the end of the day. By then, two meetings, a client request, and a handful of small tasks have blurred together. You enter something reasonable and move on. But reasonable isn't billable, and it isn't defensible. With that being said, I’m here today to fix that. I'll share with you which time tracking method is right for you. By the end, you'll know which method fits your workflow and what each one can actually prove.
