What do you dislike about Controlio?

not much, i think there are sometimes issues with end users who have games installed that see Controlio as 'cheating' so the anti-cheat kicks in, but that's not common and only if using BYOD Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Controlio?

The application is very easy to use. It covers all of the things we need when it comes to monitoring software. It's basic, nothing to fancy and the price is right. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Controlio?

The ability to monitor MAC's. You have to go through a number of additional steps in order to add the software to a MAC than you do a PC. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Controlio solving and how is that benefiting you?

Controlio helps us understand where our employees are spending most of their time. It also helps us with shadow IT. If we see a lot of people are using a different tool than what we have already provided to them, we can consider adding it to our tech stack. We can also review employees in training to understand how we can assist them better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Controlio?

I like that we can control what feature is enabled for different users/profiles. That way, we can monitor the sales team screens and web history while keeping the supervisor role only with the web history feature active. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Controlio?

To be honest, I don't believe there's anything we don't like. We tested other softwares before, and they all missed something. Controlio was the only one with all we needed for a pretty good price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Controlio solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our users (mostly the sales team) were used to browsing the web all the time during work hours. This was impacting our sales. Once we implemented Controlio and told them what we were doing, their behavior changed, and now they are more conscious about the use of their computer during work hours. We tracked the most accessed non-work-related websites and added them to the "Very distracting" list, so it's easy to see who is spending how much time on those websites.

What do you like best about Controlio?

I’m a creative, forward-thinking person, and so are they. Working with people that are as creative as I am is awesome. They’ve opened my eyes to so many different things that I didn’t know. Then, they took it to another level where they made it work. They created digital versions of my designs that came to life for me. I don’t want to sound like Disney, but they really do an amazing job. Additionally, their follow-up care and attention make me like them and want to continue working with them.
