Fingerprint, face, card or mobile?

Most sites mix them: face or fingerprint for staff, cards for visitors. Here is where each one is strong and where it is weak.

Cost

What a biometric attendance system costs

Start with attendance, then add door control where you need it. Your final quote is fixed in writing after the free site visit.

The starting price covers the reader, attendance software, payroll export and staff enrolment. Door hardware is quoted after we have seen the doors and frames.

Questions

Access control questions

Will it work with our payroll software?

In most cases yes — attendance data exports to Excel or CSV, which almost every payroll package accepts. Tell us what you use and we'll confirm the format before we quote.

What happens to the doors in a power cut?

That depends on whether the door is set fail-safe (unlocks) or fail-secure (stays locked), which is a fire-safety decision as much as a security one. We configure it deliberately and include backup power so doors stay controlled through short cuts.

Fingerprint readers fail for some of our staff. Why?

Worn, wet or damaged fingertips are a genuine limitation — common in manual trades. Face recognition or cards solve it. A good system mixes methods, so nobody is left stuck at the door.

Can we control which staff enter which areas?

Yes. Access rules are set per person and per zone, so accounts staff can enter the office but not the stores, and cleaners can enter after hours but not the server room.

Can it work alongside our CCTV?

Yes, and it's worth doing. Pairing an access log with camera footage at the same door turns "someone used this card" into "this is who used it".

What does it cost?

An attendance-only setup starts from ₹29,999 installed, including the reader, software, enrolment and reporting. Adding door control brings in the lock, exit hardware and backup supply, which we quote after seeing the doors.
