BioTime is competent software. It collects punches, calculates hours and produces a report. The complaints we hear are never that it is broken — they are that it charges by device and employee block, has no mobile app worth using, and knows nothing about UAE labour law.
Why you can switch without new hardware
ZKTeco terminals push their data using ADMS — a push protocol where the device sends punches to whatever server address you configure. BioTime is one such server. Ours is another. Changing the address in the device menu is the entire technical migration; the fingerprints stay enrolled on the device, and staff notice nothing.
What you gain
- Unlimited devices and employees on one licence — no tier jumps when you hire
- A real iOS and Android app with geofenced clock-in for field staff
- UAE overtime multipliers, leave entitlements and Ramadan hours built in
- AI flags on buddy punching and unscheduled overtime
- Shift swaps and multi-level approvals instead of a WhatsApp group
What you lose
Manufacturer-branded software, which matters to some procurement policies, and the exact report layouts your HR team has memorised. We rebuild the reports they actually use during onboarding. If the branding requirement is real, we will sell you the genuine BioTime licence instead — we stock those too.
