Not all timeclocks are compatible with every time and attendance system, so the one you select may be a factor in the system you end up using.

You can select either a stand-alone timeclock or a time and attendance system that includes timeclock features. It depends largely on your business and what you feel makes the most sense for monitoring your employees.
