Chronos: workforce management built on biometric attendance
Chronos is workforce management software developed by TALSAQ. It collects the thumb punches from your biometric attendance devices, such as Hikvision and ZKTeco, and shows whether each employee came on time, late or worked overtime. With rotating shifts, daily, weekly and monthly rosters, and leave, it turns every punch into records that are ready for payroll.
