PC Usage Reports for Windows Device Activity
TheOneSpy's PC Usage Reports generate a structured summary of activity on a supervised Windows device — total active time, website time, application usage, and idle periods — in a downloadable format suitable for review, compliance, or management reporting.
What PC Usage Reports Include
PC Usage Reports compile activity data from the supervised Windows device into a structured summary — covering total active session time, idle time, website visit time and domain count, and application usage breakdown, with a per-day and per-week breakdown.
Reports are generated from the dashboard on demand or on a schedule, and are downloadable in a format suitable for sharing with HR, management, or compliance teams. Each report covers the selected date range for the specified device.
Unlike the raw activity log, PC Usage Reports present data in a summary format — aggregated and easy to read, designed for review rather than detailed investigation.
Active vs. Idle Time
Total session time broken down into active usage and idle periods — a clear summary of genuine engaged device use.
Website Activity Summary
Total web browsing time, number of unique domains visited, and top sites — without requiring a domain-by-domain review.
Application Usage Breakdown
Top applications by time, with per-app session totals — a quick summary of how the device's time was divided.
Downloadable & Shareable
Reports generated on demand and downloadable — suitable for HR reviews, management reporting, or compliance documentation.
How Parents Use PC Usage Reports
Parents use PC Usage Reports to get a regular summary of how a supervised Windows PC is being used — without reviewing the full activity log every session.
Weekly PC Use Summary
A weekly report gives parents a high-level picture of how many hours the supervised PC was used, the top sites visited, and the primary applications in use — a useful checkpoint without deep-dive monitoring.
Evidence for Conversations
When a parent wants to have a conversation with a child about screen time or PC habits, a usage report provides objective numbers — hours spent, sites visited, apps used — as a factual starting point.
How Businesses Use PC Usage Reports
HR teams and managers use PC Usage Reports to review employee productivity on company Windows devices — generating per-employee, per-period summaries for management review without accessing raw activity logs.
Management Productivity Reviews
Usage reports provide per-device, per-period summaries of activity time and application usage — suitable for regular management review of company PC productivity without requiring log-level access.
HR & Compliance Documentation
Usage reports provide structured, timestamped documentation of device activity — suitable for HR investigations, disciplinary processes, or compliance audit requirements.

Data Retention Limits
