05Questions

Asked often.

Can I migrate historical data from Time Doctor?

There's no official export/import path between the two platforms. Most teams export historical Time Doctor reports for their own records and start fresh in Rymot.

Can employees see their own data?

Yes, by default and on every plan. Time Doctor supports employee visibility but also offers silent tracking; Rymot's default is always transparent.

Does Rymot support screenshots?

Yes — configurable capture intervals, with employees notified at the moment of capture.

Can Rymot replace Time Doctor?

For time tracking, attendance, and activity monitoring, yes. If your workflow depends heavily on Time Doctor's contractor-payment integrations, verify your specific payment platform is covered by Rymot's payroll exports first.

How long does migration take?

Most teams are fully cut over within a day or two — install the agent, set schedules and policies, and start tracking.
