About Employee Desk
We build employee management software in Mohali for companies of roughly ten to two hundred and fifty people — the size where a spreadsheet has stopped working and an enterprise HRMS is more than anyone wants to implement.
What we build, in one paragraph
Employee Desk keeps the operational record of a workforce in one place: employee records, attendance with shifts and a late policy, leave with balances that accrue on their own, a shared holiday calendar, projects and tasks, daily work reports, and an optional desktop time tracker for Windows · macOS · Ubuntu. It deliberately stops before payroll processing and exports clean data instead. It runs on our cloud, on a single-tenant private cloud, or on a server you own.
Three decisions that shape the product
Monitoring must be visible to the monitored
Employees see every screenshot taken of their own screen, in the same gallery their manager uses, and are notified at capture. The tray icon cannot be hidden. There is no stealth mode and there will not be one. If a feature request breaks this, the answer is no.
Privacy position → 02Self-hosting is a real option, not a slide
A published licence band, an install script, public documentation, a backup procedure and an upgrade path — available to a forty-person company without an enterprise negotiation.
Self-hosted → 03Prices are published
Every price is on the site. You should not have to book a call to find out what software costs, and a vendor who hides the number is usually deciding it after they have looked you up.
Pricing →What we do not do
A short list, published because knowing what a product is not is more useful than another feature grid.
- Payroll processing and statutory filing. We export clean CSV and stop. If you want one system for both, a full HRMS such as Keka is the honest recommendation.
- Recruitment, appraisals and performance cycles. Entire modules we have chosen not to build.
- GPS and field-staff tracking. If you have drivers or site engineers, Hubstaff does that and we do not.
- Productivity scoring. No application is classified as productive or unproductive and no employee is given a score. We think it causes more arguments than it settles.
- Covert monitoring. Not as a setting, not on request. If that is the requirement, we are the wrong vendor.
Where we are going
The plan is unglamorous and specific: win the Mohali market properly, build real references from companies whose names we can use, and expand outward through Chandigarh, Panchkula and Punjab before worrying about anywhere else. Self-hosting and the partner programme are the two things that let a small company serve buyers a larger vendor would need a whole enterprise motion to reach.
We would rather have fifty customers who can be phoned for a reference than five hundred who signed up and drifted away.

Frequently asked questions
Who is behind Employee Desk?
Employee Desk CRM, based in Mohali, Punjab, India. Reach us on +91 70095 93522 or contact@digitalgeniussolution.com.
How long have you been around?
The product has been in development and use since 2025. We are a small company, and if that is a concern for your procurement process, the source-code escrow included in the largest self-hosted band exists precisely to address it.
Is Employee Desk open source?
No. It is commercial software, available as a cloud subscription or as a licence you install on your own server. Source-code escrow is included in the 250+ self-hosted band.
Why is it called Employee Desk CRM?
The domain is historical. The product is not a CRM in the sales sense; it is employee management software. We use Employee Desk as the product name and keep the existing domain rather than breaking every link that points at it.
