Biometric attendance. Now with access control.
Tornad's biometric platform connects your ZKTeco, Anviz, Suprema, or HikVision devices to a central cloud system — workforce attendance tracking and secure door, gate, and turnstile access control, on the same hardware, across every site.
Full-spectrum time & attendance management
From single-site offices to multi-site factories with rotating shifts — Tornad Attendance scales to handle your workforce tracking requirements.
Multi-Device Biometric Integration
Connect any combination of ZKTeco, Anviz, Suprema, HikVision, or Virdi devices to one dashboard. Fingerprint, face recognition, RFID and PIN clock-in all supported.
Real-Time Attendance Tracking
Live dashboard of every employee's status. Instant alerts for late arrivals and unauthorised absences, with GPS location stamping for mobile check-in.
Shift & Roster Management
Fixed, rotating, and flexible shifts assigned by department, role, or individually — with automatic overtime calculation (1.5x, 2x) per Kenya Employment Act.
Multi-Site & Branch Management
Deploy devices across offices, factories, warehouses, and retail outlets, managed from one system with site-level permissions and consolidated reports.
Payroll Integration
Attendance data flows directly into Tornad Payroll — late deductions, overtime payments, and absenteeism adjustments calculated automatically.
Analytics & Workforce Reports
Absenteeism trends, punctuality scores, overtime cost by department, and scheduled automated reports to HR and managers.
Biometric access control
The same fingerprint, face-recognition, and RFID hardware that clocks employees in can also decide who is allowed through a door, gate, or turnstile — installed and configured by the same Tornad team.
Door & Entry Control
Electronic locks and strikes on server rooms, stores, and restricted areas — unlocked only by an authorised fingerprint, face, or card credential.
Turnstiles & Gate Barriers
Pedestrian turnstiles and vehicle gate barriers integrated with biometric or RFID readers for controlled, logged entry at perimeters and car parks.
Multi-Door Zone Management
Define access zones and schedules per employee, department, or visitor — a warehouse floor worker doesn't need finance-office access.
Visitor & Contractor Access
Time-boxed access credentials for visitors and contractors, automatically expired at the end of their visit or contract.
Real-Time Entry Alerts
Instant alerts for forced entry, propped doors, and access attempts outside permitted hours or zones.
Full Access Audit Trail
Every entry and exit timestamped and logged per person and door — exportable for security audits and compliance reviews.
We supply the devices and install the software
Tornad supplies, installs, and configures ZKTeco, Anviz, Suprema, and HikVision biometric devices — for attendance, access control, or both — alongside our management software. You get a complete, working system from one provider.
What you're really replacing
Paper sign-in sheets and keyed locks don't talk to payroll, and don't tell you who is actually on-site.
