With changing workplaces and work culture post-pandemic, many organizations and companies are still in the process of ensuring the productivity of their employees. There are many apps and software in the market that help you ensure the productivity of your employees. 

In this blog, I will tell you about time management, its benefits, and how to integrate Time Doctor and ClickUp to ensure that the workflow is established, the employees are productively working, and the tasks are aligned. Business growth in terms of employee productivity can be analyzed and measures can be taken accordingly with the integration of these two amazing project management tools. 

What is time management?

In order to effectively manage your time, you must first organize and plan how you will split your time between different tasks. This process is what is called time management. If you execute it correctly, you'll find yourself working smarter rather than harder to accomplish more in less time - even when time is limited, and demands are strong.

There are many benefits to time management. Here are a few of them:

• Productivity and efficiency will increase.
• The stress on both employees and employers will reduce.
• A more professional reputation can be built.
• Chances of progression are increased.
• More opportunities to pursue your personal and professional objectives.

With a lot of time management tools in the digital market, choosing the right ones for you or your organization can be quite difficult. 

Let me introduce you to two time management tools that are used in webdew that help our managers track and monitor employee productivity. 

Not just that, webdew uses these two management tools to help the employee work productively and in an organized manner. These management tools are:

Time Doctor

Time Doctor is a time management tool that we are using in webdew not only to manage the time of the employees but also to check attendance, working hours, time spent on a specific task, project, or campaign, etc., in webdew. Time Doctor can also take screenshots of your employees' computers at the specified time interval.

ClickUp

Click Up is one of the project management tools that we use in webdew to manage tasks related to the projects and the campaigns in the webdew. We have organized our Click Up as per the services we offer and the departments we have in the company.
