With the need of SMEs to improve productivityand optimise workflow especially during a period of prolonged uncertaintybrought about by the Covid-19 pandemic, King of Time offers a seamless entrypoint for them to go digital without incurring excessive costs or wasted time.

King of Time's cloud-based attendance systemrequires only a PC and an internet connection.

King of Time's clients span industriessuch as F&B, automation, hospitality and retail.  Renowned patisserie Chateraise with outletsall across the world benefits especially from the software's globalcompatibility usage. King of Time allows the company to manage multiple globallocations via one centralised master account.

 

Ariel Lee, Director of Sunparkof the Chateraise franchise, endorses that King of Time "effectively reducesthe time taken to do payroll by 70%. Staff work hours are now also able to beascertained by the biometric system."

 

Especially for industries like manufacturing,retail and F&B that require more time attendance, the adoption of King ofTime helps companies to seamlessly transit into digital solutions. Thestreamlining of operations by removing menial, manual and laborious tasksreduces man-hours and costs drastically, offering companies a much-needed handin their productivity upgrading efforts.

Subsidised rates under the grantcover training, set-up and hardware to help companies through the initialset-up of transitioning to digital solutions.
