(Traditional Method)
Biometrics have physical boundaries, it can only be used when the employee is in office.
It needs physical presence and thus cannot operate under Work From Home conditions.
You have to physically extract the attendance database in excel formats and then have to manually compute the payroll for all employees.
Details of a new joining employee are registered manually, just like we used our old keypad phone to register a contact.
Need additional maintenance charges like security and electricity expenses.
Not able to capture attendance for employees with some physical disability and is unhygienic, as no one knows who has touched the biometric machine.
(Modern Method)
QR code/ Link-based attendance doesn't have any boundaries, it can also be used when an employee is not in the office.
It is suitable in both physical as well as Work From Home conditions.
After filling the month-end attendance form, payroll will be automatically computed and visible to the top management of the organization.
Details of a new joining employee can be registered through Joining Form from any device, which will generate the QR code/ Link for that respective employee.
No need for any additional expenses like security and electricity charges.
Even physically disabled employees can submit their attendance and is totally hygienic, as no physical touch is required for scanning the QR code.
