- Multi-device sync: Multiple terminals can sync via LAN; Build 6 improved conflict resolution when merging logs from different devices to reduce duplicates.
- Integration & APIs: Standard SDK and REST API for HR/ERP integration; APIs cover punch retrieval, user management, and basic reports. On-prem SDK is stable and well-documented.
- Security & tamper resistance: Device firmware includes tamper detection and encrypted storage of templates; Build 6 added stronger firmware signing to reduce risk of unauthorized firmware changes.
- Reporting: Built-in reports (daily/summary/late/early/absent) are comprehensive and exportable to CSV/XLS. Good for payroll processing when synced regularly.
