Why Use TimeClock 365 for Door Access Control?
2023-01-01
Door access control and time tracking are typically managed as separate systems, often by different departments. The result is two data sets that never quite match - and a reconciliation problem every pay cycle.
The Problem with Separate Systems
When access control and time tracking are separate, every discrepancy between the two records requires manual investigation. Which system is authoritative? Who is responsible for reconciling them? These questions consume hours of HR and IT time every month.
When Door Entry IS the Clock-In
TimeClock 365 integrates door access and attendance in one platform. When an employee badges through the door, two things happen simultaneously: the door opens and an attendance record is created. There is nothing to reconcile - one event, one record.
Cost Comparison
Separate access control and time tracking systems typically mean two software subscriptions, two sets of hardware, and IT resources for two integrations. TimeClock 365 covers both with one subscription, one hardware platform, and one admin panel.
Security Without Complexity
Cloud-based access control managed through TimeClock 365 means permissions can be updated immediately from any browser. When an employee leaves, one action revokes both their building access and their time tracking credentials.
