RecFaces, a global developer of enterprise-grade facial biometric software, announces a major update of Id-Time, its facial recognition solution for workforce time management, attendance control, and operational visibility across enterprise facilities.
The new version represents a significant evolution of Id-Time, transforming it into a full-featured workforce time management and monitoring tool for organizations with complex structures, distributed sites, shift-based schedules, high people flow, and strict requirements for accuracy, automation, and control.
At the center of the release is a complete biometric time and attendance module, now built directly into the product. Companies can manage planned schedules, timesheets, attendance reports, overtime, undertime, breaks, violations, absences, and automatic notifications in one interface. This allows HR teams, security departments, facility managers, and executives to see a complete picture of employee attendance and workforce discipline without relying on fragmented systems or manual reporting.
Id-Time is now also powered by an upgraded version of a facial recognition algorithm ranked among the Top 5 globally by NIST. The latest version significantly increases identification accuracy and consistency, particularly in challenging conditions such as poor lighting, high people flow, or partial face visibility. This ensures faster and more reliable recognition performance in real-world enterprise environments.
One of the key additions in the new Id-Time is real-time monitoring and diagnostics of events across a facility. The product now includes specialized dashboards for security teams, HR departments, and managers, helping them monitor system load, terminal status, camera performance, database diagnostics, and the number of people on site.
This capability gives organizations not only better control over workforce attendance, but also a clearer understanding of what is happening at their facilities at any given moment. For example, in an emergency situation, security teams can use Id-Time to check how many people are located in a specific area and support evacuation or response procedures with more accurate information.
The updated version also introduces custom and informative reports for workforce time management. Users now have access to more than 10 report types, including worked time summaries, attendance reports, overtime and undertime reports, detailed and summary violation reports, visitor reports, and presence monitoring. Reports can be exported in Excel, CSV, and PDF formats, making data ready for payroll processing, HR analysis, or integration with external systems via API.
Another important new feature is visitor flow monitoring. Id-Time can now count and analyze visitors separately from employees, including their time on site, first and last passage, and daily statistics. One-time visits are recorded automatically, while temporary profiles can be deactivated according to schedule. This gives organizations a more accurate view of both employee and guest presence at their facilities.
According to Farida Baichora, Product Owner at RecFaces, the update was developed around real customer needs and practical business scenarios:
“At RecFaces, we always build our products around the needs of our clients. While working on this Id-Time update, we analyzed customer requests, market expectations, competitor capabilities, and real user experience, and brought all of this into one product vision. As a result, we created a solution that helps businesses save time, reduce costs, and clearly see what is happening at their facilities. This release is not only about new functionality — it is about making biometric workforce management more practical, flexible, and valuable for everyday operations. We will continue collecting user feedback, improving the product, providing human technical support, and releasing updates based on real business needs.”
The new Id-Time also offers an expanded biometric profile and a flexible organizational structure. Organizations can manage employee photos, departments, positions, profile types, vacations, sick leaves, and different attendance policies for different groups. The solution supports complex corporate hierarchies, including departments, cities, countries, and distributed organizational structures.
For enterprise and distributed deployments, RecFaces has introduced several important infrastructure improvements. Id-Time now supports Debian GNU/Linux 13.5 “Trixie”, giving customers more flexibility when choosing a corporate Linux server platform. The release also includes an offline mode for trackers, or video preprocessing servers, which is especially important for geographically distributed facilities. If connection with the central core is temporarily lost, identification events are processed and stored locally, then automatically synchronized with the central server once the connection is restored.
The notification system has also been enhanced. New mechanisms for Email and Webhook notifications provide guaranteed delivery, flexible notification templates, and ready-to-use configurations for key scenarios, including access events, labor discipline control, system monitoring, password recovery, compromise alerts, and SMTP checks.
Alongside these functional and technical updates, RecFaces has significantly improved the Id-Time interface. The redesigned navigation, compact table mode, optimized filtering, hotkeys, favorites, improved dark theme, updated SMTP/Email and Webhook settings, CSV import improvements, and a more intuitive organizational hierarchy make everyday use faster and more convenient for administrators, managers, HR specialists, and security teams.
With this release, Id-Time becomes a comprehensive biometric workforce time management solution that combines facial recognition, attendance control, real-time monitoring, visitor analytics, flexible reporting, and enterprise-grade infrastructure capabilities in one product. The update reflects RecFaces’ commitment to customer-centric innovation and to developing practical biometric software that helps organizations strengthen control, improve efficiency, and make better operational decisions.
