Access Control and
Time&Attendance
Access control
Every workspace needs at least some level of access control. For this reason, access control is the basic building block of every Time&Space system. For example, you can start with just a few main entrances and later develop a more complex access system for as many doors as you need.

Opening doors and recording hours on-site only scratches the surface. Your workforce is your greatest asset, and labour is your greatest cost. That is why everything counts - every day, every hour, and every minute.
For every employee, at every location, working from home or on the move.
Learn moreBest together
Not surprisingly, we often view security and workforce management as two separate organisational functions. In fact, they are normally managed by two different departments - Security and HR - and usually with different business objectives, skills, and responsibilities. However, many times and in many places, access and time come very closely together.
For example, using the same ID badge for access and time is only the tip of the iceberg. The relationship between working time management and access control is actually very important. Every time an employee, intern, subcontractor, customer or visitor enters the building, passes an access point or needs to record their time on site, HRM and security intersect. This often results in many points of interaction between the two, which can be quite a challenge for any organisation.
Without limiting the unique requirements of the two areas, Time&Space proves that working time management and access control are Best together.
Why Time&Space should be your first choice
Access control software can be notoriously unfriendly, with myriads of difficult to understand and rarely used parameters. Conversely, time and attendance systems deal with vast amounts of data that can be intimidating even for the most capable administrators.
So what should you look for in your solution?
Modularity
Software modularity is the key to managing complex systems. Thanks to the modular structure of Time&Space, additional software modules can be added gradually, as needed.
Scalability
Time&Space has practically unlimited capacity for growth. This workforce management and security solution is used in organisations with thousands of users spread across multiple geographic locations. But it can also be deployed with equal ease in very small organisations or branch offices.
Connectivity
Time&Space's data communication is IP-based and allows both local and privately hosted deployment. Web access is also available for all common, everyday administrative tasks. Mobile app (iOS, Android) can be used for geolocation-based clocking.
Compatibility
Time&Space does not have any special requirements for use. It performs well in most conventional PC /Windows/IP network environments and beyond, using a standard web browser. And it works equally well on the two most popular data platforms, Oracle and Microsoft SQL.
Interoperability
Time&Space is open for integration on several levels: via built-in data exports, via a separate export utility or in real-time via an IP-based signalling utility. There is also a whole module dedicated to advanced payroll integration. Finally, third party integration is available via extensive Time&Space API's.
Industrial strength
Enterprise features such as application-level audit trails, native database authentication, support for Active Directory (AD) and other Single Sign On (SSO) schemes make Time&Space an excellent choice for even the most demanding IT environments.
User experience
Usability is a legitimate concern for any software with a powerful feature set. Time&Space meets this challenge by providing rich data visualisation, complexity hiding and optimised bulk data handling. This ensures a first-class user experience with panoramic overview and real-time control.
Localisation
We are particularly aware of the challenges of localization. Time&Space can be translated into virtually any language by the national distributor, reseller, integrator, or even the end-user. Translations are incremental so that they can follow the software versions.

We take great care of our customers
We weren’t sure the implementation would be possible in our environment without having to change our current working schemes and practices.
The configurability and flexibility of Time&Space has enabled a completely smooth transition. We are already feeling the time and efficiency savings from the system, especially due to diverse kinds of reports and payroll calculations.
Sokol Kreci, Head of HR at AlbChrome
In the past, time and attendance data was entered manually by our individual store managers, which was a 2-day procedure. In addition, we had to double-check the balance of hours. Now that we can work with real-time data, this task has been simplified.
Helena Subelj, Head of HR, Spar Slovenia
We were looking for a system that would collect data at source, ensure its safe transfer to our central database and then process this data in real time. Time&Space has fully met our expectations.
Mario Budinski, IT Department Manager at BlueSun Hotels and Resorts
The openness and flexibility of Spica’s Time&Space solution gives us the ability to decide, at any given time, whether to proceed to another package for payroll calculation, because it permits universal connectivity and complies with the Lafarge Group’s strict standards.
