Door Access Control — Connected to Time Tracking
The only system that combines door access with attendance management. One platform, one dashboard, one source of truth.
What is access control software?
Access control software manages who can enter physical spaces and when. It replaces mechanical keys with digital credentials — cards, biometrics, mobile wallets, or PINs. Cloud-based systems like TimeClock 365 let you manage permissions remotely, view entry logs in real time, and connect door access directly to employee attendance records. No on-premise server required.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does TimeClock 365 door access control work?

Does attendance and access control work together in one platform?
Yes. This is the core differentiator of TimeClock 365 — the only platform that unifies attendance management and door access control in a single cloud system. Entry and exit events automatically generate attendance records, eliminating the need for two separate systems.

TimeClock 365 supports: NFC card, RFID card, biometric fingerprint, face recognition, mobile wallet (Apple Pay / Google Pay), and PIN. Multiple credential types can run simultaneously across different doors.
