Our verdict on LumOffice
LumOffice monitors activity on company computers, with a Windows desktop app feeding a web dashboard for managers. It is aimed at solo users and small teams looking for basic time and activity oversight at a low cost. Tracking covers active work time, activity level, applications, and websites; managers can review current activity and employee timelines. The app stops tracking when the computer is inactive, and the vendor says it does not record particular keystrokes or access webcams.
The pricing page lists Free at $0, Standard at $2 per user per month, and Professional at $3 per user per month. Each plan lists time tracking, screenshot monitoring, activity-level tracking, and app and URL tracking. The paid plans therefore have the same stated core feature set in the published plan highlights. A 31-day Professional trial is offered without a credit card. Random screenshots can be configured up to 30 per hour, while reports can be downloaded as Excel timesheets. Tracked data is preserved offline and uploaded when internet connectivity returns.
LumOffice’s fit is strongest when those monitoring basics and low entry cost matter more than broad platform reach or ecosystem connections. The listed platforms are web and Windows, and the vendor FAQ says only the Windows app is publicly available. Its stated positioning also identifies no integrations or recording, so teams that need those capabilities should look elsewhere. Email and documentation are the listed support channels, and GDPR is the stated compliance posture. Choose LumOffice for straightforward Windows activity tracking and reporting; consider alternatives if you need other desktop platforms or integrations.
