BIOMETRIC SOFTWARE FEATURES
Overview
With regards to staff log-in we have been using magnetic cards, iButtons® and RFID cards for quite a while. All of these technologies have the same common fault – the card or button can be passed from one staff member to another.
This is obviously a problem when staff are signing on/off for a shift and ‘buddy punching’ occurs. You are going to be paying some fairly serious labour charges for staff that aren’t at work.
Now with M2Sys and Digital Persona Biometrics we are able to offer a highly accurate employee identification method.
Benefits
The biometrics solution is ideal for employee or customer identification in small, medium and large retail and service businesses by offering the following benefits:
- Support for up to 250 clerks/waiters per POS terminal
- Login via code, magnetic card, iButton, ProxCard or biometrics (fingerprint reader)
- Easy to use - colour-coded buttons with pictures make it easy to operate and train new staff
- Support for up to 14 kitchen and receipt printers with auto-backup
- Sales entry via touch screen (8000 buttons) and/or programmable POS keyboard
- Ability to easily split and merge table bills. Customer control has never been so easy!
What's the Bottom Line ?
The use of biometrics is rapidly becoming the de-facto means of person authentication in our commercial marketplace because there is no other method more safe, secure, affordable, or efficient.
In the retail POS industry, biometrics is replacing costly, inefficient, and jeopardous ID card or PIN systems, and the businesses embracing it are realizing immediate benefits:
- Employee and customer identity is established with irrefutable proof and correctness
- Employees are held more accountable for their actions
- Significant cost savings in the administration and reproduction of ID cards or PINs
- Ease-of-use and advanced, secure technology investment attracts more customers
- Employees can never share their fingerprints !
