What an investigation costs, and whether its evidence holds up
workmonitor.vsActivity-logging and insider-risk tools
5differences, worked through below
Analyst hours per case
With WorkMonitor
One append-only trail of access, change and export, fed to your SIEM and webhooks, so the case starts assembled.
Activity-logging and insider-risk tools
Evidence assembled by hand from separate consoles, exports and screenshots.
Evidence that survives a challenge
With WorkMonitor
The trail is hash-chained, so a removal breaks the chain and the break is detectable.
Activity-logging and insider-risk tools
Deleting rows from a log table leaves no trace that rows were deleted — the first thing opposing counsel tests.
A finding that gets contested
With WorkMonitor
Every access is logged, investigators included, with a dispute route and human review — what a regulator or tribunal asks to see first.
Activity-logging and insider-risk tools
The investigation ran entirely outside anything the subject could see, so the challenge lands on the investigator.
One more console to license
With WorkMonitor
Security evidence inside the platform that already runs productivity, timesheets and payroll, licensed per person rather than per endpoint.
Activity-logging and insider-risk tools
A separate tool with its own login, its own seat count and its own idea of an incident.
Value between incidents
With WorkMonitor
The same deployment prices the week’s shortfall, shows who is overloaded and feeds payroll, so the spend works on the days nothing goes wrong.
Activity-logging and insider-risk tools
The console earns its keep when there is an incident, and sits idle when there is not.
The question we get asked
Can a workforce platform carry an insider-risk programme, or do we need a dedicated engine?
It depends on whether the programme is the purchase. The evidence layer is here — a hash-chained, append-only trail, egress and integrity signals, SIEM export, and every access logged including the investigator’s. On analyst tooling and risk-model depth a dedicated platform is ahead; where this wins is cost, because the same seats also run productivity, capacity and payroll.
Integrity — anomalies flagged for a person to weigh
What a manager gets, in one platform
- Audit log (hash-chained; primitive in Proof Ledger)
- Compliance evidence pack
- SIEM export
- Access-anomaly detection

Switching
Bringing your DTEX Systems history across
Nobody switches tools if it means abandoning a year of history. Export yours as CSV and the importer maps it onto our columns. There is no dedicated DTEX Systems preset yet, so expect to line the columns up once rather than not at all.
The columns your export needs to line up with
- date
- minutes
- project
- task
- note
Six columns, mapped once on the first import. Rows that cannot be normalised still pass through, so the importer reports exactly which ones need attention rather than rejecting the file.
After the import
Where your DTEX Systems history lands
Imported hours sit on the same ledger as everything captured after them, so last quarter’s cost and margin read the same way as next quarter’s. Corrections append with an author and a reason rather than overwriting, which is what lets you answer why a number changed long after anyone remembers.
API keys — scoped keys, never master keys
When DTEX Systems is the better answer
You are running a dedicated insider-risk programme at enterprise scale and need a purpose-built risk-scoring engine with an established analyst workflow. That is their whole product and a broader platform will not match its depth.
If that is the deciding requirement, buy that instead.
Questions
DTEX Systems alternatives: what managers ask
Answered about what WorkMonitor does, including where the answer is no.
- Is WorkMonitor an insider-risk platform?
- It carries the evidence layer an insider-risk programme needs — a hash-chained append-only trail, egress and integrity signals, SIEM export — inside a broader workforce platform. It is not a dedicated risk-scoring engine with an analyst case-management workflow.
- How do I move my DTEX Systems data into WorkMonitor?
- Export it as CSV and the importer maps it onto our columns — email, date, minutes, project, task, note. There is no dedicated preset for this vendor yet, so the columns get lined up once on the first import. Risk scores and case history do not map onto anything here. The time series lands; the hash-chained evidence trail necessarily starts on the day you switch.
- What is the best DTEX Systems alternative for a mid-sized company?
- For a company that cannot justify a dedicated insider-risk team, one that bundles the evidence with the workforce data it already needs. WorkMonitor carries the tamper-evident trail, egress signals and SIEM export alongside productivity, capacity and payroll — one deployment and one per-seat price instead of a separate security console.
- Can WorkMonitor feed our SIEM and SOC tooling?
- Yes — SIEM export, a typed read-only API with IP allowlisting, and signed webhooks, so it acts as a source for the stack you already run rather than another console with its own login.
- What stops an administrator from tampering with the evidence?
- On Enterprise the audit trail is hash-chained and append-only: removing a row breaks the chain and the break is detectable. Every request is checked against your organisation before any data is returned, and administrators’ own reads are logged like anyone else’s.
- Is WorkMonitor licensed per endpoint or per seat?
- Per person rather than per endpoint, so someone running several machines is one seat. The tamper-evident audit log, SSO and SCIM are on Enterprise, on custom terms; two seats are free to evaluate the rest.

Take these with you
The software is the easy part of a rollout
Here is what we would send a manager doing one for the first time: how to read a productivity number, what to say to a remote team before anything is installed, and a policy you can adopt as written.
Point it at one team for a week.
Create the account, put the agent on a handful of desks, and leave it alone. On Friday you read the week instead of reconstructing it: hours against their projects, focus and idle per person, and the timesheets already filled in.
Free for two seats. No card, and no sales call to sit through.
