Can I use Zaffre’s remote employee monitoring on its own, without the full suite?

Yes. Zaffre Axon is modular. You can start with just this module (only Payroll, say, or only Attendance, CRM, Helpdesk, Accounting or Project Management) and add other modules later on the same platform. There is no re-platforming and no data migration, and you only pay for the modules you use.

Does Zaffre Axon include remote employee monitoring?

Yes. Zaffre Axon includes remote employee monitoring through its own Zaffre Remote Work module. A native desktop agent captures active hours, application and website usage, and optional periodic screenshots. It is not a third-party add-on.

Can employees see what the agent is recording?

Yes. Each employee can see their own captured data (active hours, app usage, and screenshots if enabled) and can dispute anything that looks wrong.

Is screenshot capture mandatory?

No. Screenshots are optional and configurable per company policy. Productivity-based attendance flags work with active-hours alone.

Feature

Remote employee monitoring

A native desktop agent that records active hours and app usage, with optional periodic screenshots, and turns it into attendance.

Zaffre Remote Work is the productivity-monitoring module of the Zaffre Axon platform. A native desktop agent (Windows / macOS / Linux) captures login / logout, active hours, application and website usage, and periodic screenshots. All of it can be configured per company and per employee.

Unlike third-party monitoring add-ons, the agent shares the same employee record + audit log as the rest of the platform. Attendance flags derived from active-hours data flow directly into the next pay run. Privacy controls let you turn screenshots off entirely while keeping productivity-based attendance.

For distributed and hybrid teams this replaces the "trust + tell me your timesheet" model with a transparent, configurable measurement that the employee can see, dispute and review.

How it works

1
Install agent
Employee downloads the Zaffre desktop agent from the company's download page and signs in.
2
Capture activity
Agent captures active hours + app/site usage. Screenshots are optional and configurable per company policy.
3
Flag attendance
Productivity-based attendance flags (present / partial / absent) are derived from active-hours thresholds and flow into the attendance sheet automatically.
4
Pay run
The next pay run consumes the flagged attendance without manual reconciliation.
