Chronixo's monitoring philosophy
Always visible
Employees see a live indicator whenever monitoring is active. No surprises.
Only during timer sessions
Screenshots only capture when the timer is running. Never outside work sessions.
Your cloud, your data
BYOS S3 routes all screenshots to your own bucket. Zero data on Chronixo servers.
Why teams switch
Why agencies move from Time Doctor to Chronixo
The real reasons agencies replace Time Doctor with Chronixo.
01
Trust and transparency
Time Doctor offers silent monitoring modes and video recording. These features increase anxiety and reduce employee trust - leading to higher turnover. Chronixo only monitors during active timer sessions and always notifies the employee visually.
02
Data sovereignty
Time Doctor stores monitoring data on their servers. With Chronixo's BYOS S3, screenshots go directly to your own AWS, GCP, or Azure Blob - never to Chronixo servers.
03
No project management
Time Doctor is monitoring software. There is no sprint planning, project tracking, or client portal - agencies still need two or three additional tools.
