Frequently asked questions

Facilities management attendance software typically costs between £45-£150 per month depending on team size and features. Uptivity starts at £45/month for up to 15 staff with no hardware costs, compared to traditional biometric systems that require £1,500-£3,000 upfront per clock-in device plus £80-150/month in software fees.
The best attendance tracking software for facilities management combines GPS location verification, work order integration, multi-site management, and asset tracking in one platform. Essential features include multi-site tracking, GPS verification, biometric verification to prevent buddy punching, payroll integration, and UK GDPR compliance. Uptivity offers all these features starting at £45/month.
GPS attendance tracking uses geofencing technology to verify that facilities staff are at the correct property when they clock in. The manager sets GPS boundaries around each property (customizable radius), staff open the mobile app when arriving, the app detects GPS location automatically, and if within the designated area, clock-in is permitted and location recorded with timestamped data for audit trails and client reporting.
Yes, modern facilities management attendance software integrates with existing systems including payroll, CAFM, CMMS, and accounting software. Uptivity offers native integrations with work order management systems, asset management platforms, payroll software (CSV export or API), and accounting systems (Xero, QuickBooks, Sage). The most common integration is attendance data to payroll system, eliminating manual timesheet entry.
No, you don't need expensive biometric hardware. Modern systems like Uptivity turn any Android tablet into a biometric attendance terminal. Traditional approach requires £1,500-3,000 per device (5 sites = £7,500-15,000). Uptivity uses existing tablets (£150-300 each), totaling £750-1,500 for 5 sites. Total savings: up to £13,500 on initial setup costs. Biometric features included: facial recognition, fingerprint scanning, and photo verification.
Yes, reputable facilities management attendance software is GDPR compliant when it includes UK data storage, encrypted data, data minimization, right to access, consent management, and security measures. Uptivity stores all data in UK data centres only, uses bank-level encryption (256-bit SSL), provides employee self-service portal for data access, and is an ICO-registered data processor. Facial recognition data is processed but not stored permanently.
Traditional biometric systems take 2-4 weeks for hardware delivery, installation, configuration, training, and testing. Uptivity implementation takes 1-3 days: account setup (30 minutes), tablet configuration (5 minutes per device), staff data import (1 hour), mobile app deployment (immediate), and staff training (15-30 minutes). Most facilities management companies are fully operational within 48 hours.
Comprehensive software generates payroll reports (hours worked, overtime, shift premiums, holiday tracking), compliance reports (Working Time Regulations, rest periods, health & safety records), operational reports (site attendance, late arrivals, absence patterns, multi-site comparisons), and client reports (service delivery proof with timestamps + GPS, staff attendance by property, work completion verification, professional branded PDFs).
Yes, modern systems include mobile apps for smartphones with GPS verification. Uptivity mobile app features GPS-verified clock-in, selfie photo verification, one-tap clock in/out, offline mode, and availability on Android and iOS. Field staff can view shift schedules, assigned work orders, complete digital checklists, upload photos, request leave, and view payslips. Managers get real-time location maps, instant alerts, and can approve timesheets on-the-go.
