Face Recognition Attendance: Supply, Installation & Setup
A face recognition attendance machine records when an employee clocks in and out by verifying their face, without touching the device or carrying a card. It helps reduce buddy punching, the practice of one employee recording attendance for another.
E Concept supplies, installs and configures selected ZKTeco and Hikvision face recognition terminals. We recommend a model based on your employee numbers, the entrance and the lighting, then enrol your employees and set up the attendance software.
We select the terminal for your site conditions and test recognition during installation. If you prefer fingerprint verification, see our fingerprint attendance machines, or compare every option on our time attendance systems page.

Choosing a machine
What Decides Which Face Recognition Machine You Need
We review these points with you before recommending a model.
Number of employees
Choose a terminal with enough capacity for your current and expected headcount. Capacity varies by model.
Lighting and mounting position
Lighting, glare and mounting height affect how reliably a face is read. We check the entrance before choosing a model.
Peak traffic at the entrance
If many people arrive at once, tell us. We consider how many terminals the entrance needs.
Connection
Terminals connect using options such as a network cable or Wi-Fi, depending on the model. The selected connection and software determine how attendance records are transferred.
Software and reports
The machine records punches and software turns them into reports. For filterable reports with Excel export, shifts, leave, self-service and payroll, connect it to HRX360.
Door access and intercom
Some terminals also control a door or support video intercom. See our all-in-one attendance, access control and video intercom solution.
Face recognition terminal for attendance
ZKTeco SpeedFace V5L
The ZKTeco SpeedFace V5L is one of the face recognition terminals we install. We choose the model for your site, so your quotation may name a different one. Key features:
- Face, fingerprint, palm, card and password verification
- A 5 inch colour touchscreen
- A 2MP WDR low-light camera
- Network (TCP/IP) and Wi-Fi connection
- A 1-year warranty
Specifications vary by model, and your quotation will confirm the exact device and what is included.
Privacy
Biometric Data and Your Employees
Face data is biometric data, so it should be handled with care. Before choosing a terminal, ask how it stores facial templates, who can access attendance records and how long data is kept.
Tell your employees what is collected and why, and limit access to authorised users. Your employment policies and legal obligations remain your responsibility. We can explain the storage and security features of the proposed model.
HR and payroll
Face Recognition Attendance with HRX360
Compatible ZKTeco and Hikvision devices can send attendance punches automatically to HRX360, the best HR & Payroll software. With the appropriate plan and configuration, your team can review daily logs, filter reports and export them to Excel, manage shifts and leave, and use attendance records in payroll processing.
Compatibility depends on the model, firmware and connectivity, so we check these before confirming an integration. HRX360 is an optional subscription, priced separately from the machine.
Compare methods
Face Recognition, Fingerprint or RFID Card?
The right method depends on your workplace and how much identity verification you need.
| Method | Best when | What to consider |
|---|---|---|
| Face recognition | You prefer touchless biometric attendance | Lighting, mounting position and device capabilities |
| Fingerprint | You want biometric verification with a registered fingerprint | Fingerprint readability and workplace conditions |
| RFID card | You want quick card-based attendance | Cards can be lost or shared |
Not sure? Share your employee count, entrances and lighting conditions and we will recommend a method.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a face recognition attendance machine?
It is a terminal that verifies an employee’s face and records the time of clock-in and clock-out. The records are reviewed in attendance software.
How does face recognition attendance work?
Each employee’s face is registered on the terminal. When they clock in, the terminal compares their face with the registered one and records the time. The software then turns punches into reports.
Is face recognition better than fingerprint?
Not always. Face recognition suits workplaces that want touchless attendance. Fingerprint suits businesses that prefer fingerprint verification. The right choice depends on workplace conditions, headcount and the device capabilities.
Does face recognition work in low light?
It depends on the model and the lighting at the entrance. We check the site before recommending a terminal, and we do not promise the same result for every model.
How accurate is face recognition attendance?
Accuracy varies by model, enrolment quality and conditions, and no system is perfect. We do not quote a percentage. Ask for the datasheet of the proposed model and we will explain what it states.
Can face recognition be fooled by a photo?
Some models include anti-spoofing features and others do not. Tell us if this matters at your site and we will check the proposed model’s capabilities.
How much does a face recognition attendance machine cost in Dubai?
Our face recognition attendance packages start from AED 2,000 + VAT. They include a ZKTeco terminal, on-site mounting and network configuration, employee enrolment setup and integration with the attendance software. The final price depends on the model, the number of terminals and the site. HRX360 is priced separately.
How many employees can one machine handle?
Capacity varies by model. We recommend a device based on your headcount, expected growth and how many people use the entrance at the same time.
Can it connect to payroll software?
Compatible ZKTeco and Hikvision devices can send attendance punches to HRX360. Compatibility depends on the model, firmware and connectivity, so we check these before confirming an integration.
How is face data protected?
Protection depends on the selected device, software, network setup and user permissions. Ask us how the proposed model stores facial templates, and limit access to attendance records to authorised users. Your employment policies and legal obligations remain your responsibility.
Can the machine also control a door or answer visitor calls?
Selected terminals support door access and video intercom, but the installation also needs compatible door hardware, power and a receiving arrangement. See our all-in-one attendance, access control and video intercom solution.
What happens if the internet connection fails?
Offline storage and later synchronisation depend on the terminal and software setup. We confirm the selected device’s behaviour before installation.
Is there a warranty?
A 1-year warranty is included. Your quotation will state what is covered and the support arrangements.
Do you install outside Dubai?
Yes. We provide installation services across the UAE. Share your site location so we can confirm the arrangements and quotation.
