Access control and time and attendance systems

Having control over employees and their activities within a company are critical for the effective management thereof. In the case where there is no monitoring system in place, employees can easily commit time theft or abuse break privileges. In order to exercise full control over the movements and activities of company employees, employers need the help of effective and reliable access control and/or time and attendance systems.

Simplex Time Recorders is a brand synonymous with quality access control and time and attendance monitoring for management of employee movement, as well as payroll and job costing purposes. As the oldest time and attendance company in South Africa, we specialise in providing the devices and accompanying software for the success of this monitoring. We have a strategic partnership with Synel Industries, acting as one of their agents, to provide our clients with quality products and advanced software solutions.

We specialise in various time recording and access control systems, along with its supporting software to enable employers to monitor time abuses in areas that are often overlooked and to accurately calculate employees’ payroll.

What sets our company apart is the fact that we have been selling and servicing time and attendance products for years, and as a result, we have the best possible understanding of how each product and its accompanying software functions. This enables us to provide our clients with the best service in our industry.

We are implementing time and attendance at our 9 branches country wide and chose Simplex Time Recorders. Although the project is still in the process of being implemented, my experience so far was wonderful. The quality of the hardware and software is good and the support and training we are getting is of a high standard. I am very pleased with our partnership with them and trust we will continue to get the quality and speedy support we've been receiving from them to date. Thank you Simplex

Testimonial for Simplex Time Recorders The customer service at Simplex is truly out of the ordinary—they step up in every possible way. The time recorders are programmed according to your company’s specific needs, and a full history of times is always available. Even in extreme circumstances, Shawn, Ismail, and Mr. John go out of their way to assist with allocating timesheets. I would highly recommend this company, especially their fingerprint machine solutions. Time records are of extreme importance in any company—you never know when you may need them. Thank you to Simplex. Their system has greatly helped my company confirm attendance dates when an employee falsely claimed dates and times—even two years later. Without these records, it would have been very difficult to prove our case at the CCMA. This is a company you can truly trust and rely on to deliver exactly what they promise. Once again, thank you to Shawn and Ismail for your outstanding support. Kind regards, Armand

I have been using the system for a few years now, and the service is impeccable. I have always gotten a response on any query I might have on the same day if not within a few hours. If there has been a delay with any meetings it has always been on my side and have always been accommodated with a reschedule. There is a solution for various work/shift rules, which has been adjusted seamlessly over the years, the import into our payroll system has been flawless.

The staff are specialists in their product its application, installation and implementation. The quality and speed of their face recognition unit is astonishing. We clock a line-up of 28 staff in 3 minutes. The management software is easy to use and once set up, seamlessly interfaces with our payroll. Due to experiences at other companies with different applications w.r.t. face recognition technology, I was more than skeptical. After our installation (that took three hours total) I am absolutely sold with Simplex's product and can recommend it without any reservation.
