Attendance · Dubai & UAE

One attendance system for fixed devices and the mobile app

Combine biometric terminals and the TimeChart app into a single module — so office, on-site and remote staff are all tracked the same way, in one place.

Overview

The best of both worlds

Some staff sit at a desk; others are on-site with no Wi-Fi or data plan. TimeChart's hybrid solution combines attendance from any fixed terminal with mobile-app data into one unified record — no gaps, no double entry.

Existing fixed biometric terminals may be retained where technical compatibility is confirmed; mobile check-in can then be added for workforce groups that need it.

Why hybrid

Track every worker, however they clock in

Fixed terminals for the entrance, the app for everyone else — one dashboard for all.

Unified data

Fixed-terminal and mobile check-ins merge into one clean record.

GPS for mobile staff

Geofencing keeps app-based attendance honest and location-verified.

Existing hardware options

Selected fixed biometric terminals can be integrated after verification of the exact model, firmware, SDK/API or protocol and network architecture.

Office, on-site & remote

One consistent system across every work model.

Central reporting

A single 360° view of the whole workforce.

No coverage gaps

Staff without workplace Wi-Fi use terminals; others use the app.

How it works

Fixed and mobile, in one module

Blend hardware and app data so managers see one number, not two systems to reconcile.

  • Any fixed terminal

    Combine data from biometric fingerprint, face or card devices.

  • Mobile app + GPS

    Remote and field staff clock in from their phone within a geofence.

  • Single dashboard

    All attendance flows into one report, ready for payroll.

FAQ

Hybrid attendance — answered

What is a hybrid attendance solution?

It combines fixed biometric terminals and a mobile app into one attendance record, so every work model is tracked the same way.

Does it work with our existing biometric devices?

Often, yes. Existing biometric devices can be retained where technical compatibility is confirmed. Please provide the exact make, model and firmware so we can verify the available SDK/API or protocol and the network/security architecture.

How do staff without Wi-Fi clock in?

Office-based staff and those without a data plan can use fixed terminals, while others use the mobile app.

Is mobile attendance location-verified?

Yes. GPS and geofencing confirm mobile check-ins happen inside approved work areas.
