Why entrust your attendance and payroll to OPTimes
Plenty of software can display a clock-in. Few can survive a month of load shedding, a labour inspection and a payroll that must close on the 25th. Here is what we bring to the table.
Choosing an attendance management platform commits your organisation for several years: employees will be enrolled in it, terminals connected to it, payroll will depend on it. So the question is not “which software has the most features” but “who will we be living this project with”. Here, plainly, is what we offer.
A team that does the installation itself
OPTimes is developed and deployed from Kinshasa by ENYWORK SARL. Our own teams install the terminals, enrol employees and train HR departments. We do not subcontract the rollout: the person who answers the phone knows your installation.
Your current terminals are often enough
ZKTeco, Digital Persona and HIKVision terminals already in place usually connect without replacement. We check your fleet during the demo and tell you what plugs in as-is. If you are starting from scratch, we price the hardware with you, without locking you into a brand. Details are on the Hardware page.
Software built for the field
- Power cuts and load shedding: the terminal records to internal memory and sends everything back on reconnection.
- The institution’s network: nothing to open on the firewall, nothing for your IT department to reconfigure.
- Congolese payroll: salary scale by category, grade and step, bonuses, deductions and IPR (professional income tax) by bracket.
- Several entities: departments, campuses or subsidiaries on a single instance, with isolated data.
Your data stays with you
Hosting in DR Congo or on your own servers, your choice. Attendance and payroll data do not leave the country, and biometric templates are kept only encrypted. We detail the architecture on our Security page.
A commitment on timing
Up to 500 employees and 5 terminals, the platform is operational in under six working days: one day to review your fleet, three to install, configure and start enrolment, two to train your teams. Dedicated support then stays with you for six months.
Institutions such as the Office Congolais de Contrôle and ONATRA already clock in with OPTimes. The simplest way to judge is still to see the platform on your own headcount: check our pricing or request a demo.
Frequently asked questions
Does OPTimes require a specific terminal brand?
No. Existing ZKTeco, Digital Persona and HIKVision terminals usually connect as-is, and we price a new fleet without tying you to a brand.
Who handles installation and training?
The ENYWORK SARL teams, from Kinshasa: installation, employee enrolment and two days of on-site training, followed by six months of dedicated support.
