The situation
The Fiji High Commission needed a straightforward way to manage staff attendance across two locations, without adding unnecessary complexity or relying on on-site IT support.
Key requirements:
- One system for Auckland and Wellington offices
- Easy deployment with minimal technical overhead
- Reliable, touchless clock-in for staff
- Cloud-based access for reporting and administration
The Solution
A simple, modern setup focused on ease of use and quick deployment:
Hardware
- 2 × zkteco speedpalm v5l
Touchless biometric devices using palm and facial recognition, ideal for fast, hygienic clock-ins.
Software
- ZKBio Time Cloud
A cloud-based time and attendance platform allowing:- Centralised management across both offices
- Remote access via browser
- Real-time attendance tracking
- Payroll-ready export reports
Why this worked well
- Self-install ready
The SpeedPalm V5L devices are straightforward to mount and connect, allowing the team to handle installation themselves without needing an integrator on site. - Multi-site visibility
ZKBio Time Cloud provides a single dashboard for both Auckland and Wellington, making it easy to manage staff across locations. - Touchless and fast
Palm recognition offers quick verification and avoids shared surfaces, which suits office environments. - Low IT overhead
No server, no complex setup — just connect the device to the network and log in.
