Throughout the pandemic, the collaboration tools market experienced a major boom with the rise of remote work. However, the recent acquisition of Slack by Salesforce has reinforced the growing separation between workplace tool suites and specialized collaboration tools. Suites have become “one-stop-shop” solutions that can fill multiple functions for companies and employees, which brings into question, what value is there for niche solutions?

These two companies have very different approaches when it comes to their products. Teramind is designed with a comprehensive set of features: granular activity monitoring, time tracking, productivity analysis, insider threat detection, user behavior analytics, data loss prevention – you name it, they have it. Whereas, Workpuls went for a more minimalist approach. Its product basically does two things: employee productivity and time tracking, but it does them well.

Teramind and InterGuard, both are highly regarded as powerful employee monitoring platforms for the modern workforce. Both of them have strong activity monitoring, productivity analysis and reporting features. Especially, after the recent refresh of its UI, InterGuard has been able to up its game in user friendliness – a big factor for this kind of software. On the other hand, Teramind is already known for its intuitive, award-winning interface. Pricing is another competitive edge in this market.

More than 80% of small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) view IT security as a top business concern, and 75% of corporate executives rank cybersecurity enhancements as a pressing issue in the year ahead. For many, this means adapting to a long-term remote workforce by empowering employees to be productive and secure from any location. In response to last year’s pandemic, 85% of CISOs reported sacrificing cybersecurity to enable remote work. Now, it’s time to revive those capabilities.

As companies went fully remote, keeping teams connected has become their top priority. The need for digital communication apps led companies to choose popular tools, like Whatsapp, Slack, MS Teams, and Cloud-based apps. While extremely popular, such tools also offer serious security risks. So how can companies deal with sensitive information in a secure manner?

An apples to apples comparison between Teramind and Veriato is difficult because they follow slightly different approaches when it comes to bundling product features and offerings. We’ve chosen the two most similar employee monitoring packages between the two solutions to compare. Teramind’s package, called Teramind UAM packs all the features you would expect from a modern employee monitoring solution like monitoring, recording, detection and activity control.

The efficacy of remote work has been debated for decades. Now, as companies begin pursuing a post-Covid-19 reality, the debate is finally settled. According to some of the most prominent companies in Silicon Valley, including Google, Facebook, Twitter and Apple, the answer is a hybrid model. Rather than being dogmatic and dichotomous about workplace arrangements, these companies find value in a hybrid model that includes a flexible mix of on-site and remote teams.

Supply chain attacks are one of the trickier challenges for organizations to defend against since they undermine our trust in otherwise trusted systems that we depend on for running our software and protecting our data. If an adversary is able to successfully compromise a key component of a popular supply chain product, the impact can be widely felt by many organizations.
