Biometric devices

Your biometric devices, straight to the cloud

Point a ZKTeco or eSSL device at ZodHR and punches arrive on their own: no sync PC, no middleware. ZodHR turns them into attendance using each person’s shift.

Biometric devices in ZodHR

What you get

Nothing to install

ZKTeco, eSSL and other ADMS / iClock push devices call ZodHR directly over HTTPS.

Any other device

Matrix, Mantra, Suprema, Hikvision or your own software can post punches to the JSON API.

Offline-safe

Devices keep punches while offline and upload them when they reconnect. Duplicates are ignored.

Shift-aware

Late marks, early exits, overtime, night shifts, weekly offs and holidays are applied to every punch.

Map once

Unknown device IDs show up as unmapped. Map them to an employee once and earlier punches are applied too.

Live status

See which devices are online, when they last checked in and how many punches arrived today.

Questions

Biometric devices: common questions

Which devices are supported?

ZKTeco, eSSL and other devices with ADMS, “Cloud server” or iClock PUSH firmware connect directly. Matrix, Mantra, Suprema, Hikvision and others can use the JSON API.

Do I need a computer running at the office?

No. ADMS devices send punches straight to ZodHR over the internet.

What happens if the internet goes down?

The device stores punches and uploads them when it reconnects. ZodHR ignores duplicates.
