## Reviews

### "A perfect tool for insight in computer usage intensity" — 5.0/5

> **Krzysztof** | *January 26, 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It lets me realize just how big a part of my daily life my computer is. It lets me see just how \*much\* I type, click, send over internet etc.
> 
> **Cons**: I can't think of any criticism I could express.
> 
> In addition to general quantitative feedback on computing intensity, this software also lets me analyze various additional facts about what's going on on my PC. Some examples:&#10;- days when I've downloaded the most (can be used to assess required VPN or mobile data sizing plan)&#10;- how accurate I am in my typing? Am I getting better or worse? (frequency of backspace usage)

### "WhatPulse helps me gamify my digital lifestyle" — 5.0/5

> **Ash** | *February 22, 2022* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As a self-confessed stats junkie, I love seeing how much I type each day, how much I click and what applications I use the most. WhatPulse not only makes this available but gamifies this into high score leaderboards and a social community, keeping you encouraged to type more and be more productive. When I have WhatPulse installed I feel more motivated to type out my work report, because I know it'll help with my key count that day. It gamifies my working life, and adds some needed fun into what can be a repetitive and sometimes monotonous working from home digital lifestyle.
> 
> **Cons**: The website has changed a lot over the last 10 years and sometimes it can be a bit slow and hard to navigate between new designed pages and legacy features. The forum is also pretty inactive but WhatPulse have recently launched a new Discord community which appears to be more lively. The app is intuitive, but can feel a bit dated at times in comparison to the design of other apps I use on my day to day basis. I'd also like to see better how I rank in my country, as a proud Brit\!
> 
> Overall, WhatPulse genuinely boosts my productivity. I explore the applications and discover new games and experiences that I'd never heard of. A lot of WhatPulse users are naturally PC gamers, and a lot play games which specifically come with a high key-count such as rhythm based games. These games tend to have a great community behind them and WhatPulse brings that all together through their dedicated teams, social experiences and leaderboards for stats across keystrokes, clicks, download, upload, uptime and more.

### "Great tool for Admins\!" — 5.0/5

> **Shanthanu** | *January 29, 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This tool is a great way to understand what’s going on in your computer. My download and upload usage data is critical for me to manage due to ISP restrictions.
> 
> **Cons**: I would say nothing because this is a decent software. Give it a try\!
> 
> Great\! There are minor bugs, but overall it’s a great application.

### "Perfect Usage Tracking Software\!" — 5.0/5

> **Jansen** | *January 25, 2022* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love that this software keeps track of so many different metrics\! Very neat to review and see how you rank with other users.
> 
> **Cons**: The teams feature could use some work. Graphs and such would be nice; kind of like Folding at Home.
> 
> Terrific experience, have had it installed for nearly 10 years and never had a problem with it's operations. Just silently runs in the background.

### "The first app I install on a new computer" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *January 26, 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: WhatPulse has been for more than 10 years on my computer and it is the first app I always install when I have a new one. As a number geek I love to know how much I write and click.
> 
> **Cons**: The whole part about application usage I don’t use
