8 Reasons to Make that Switch to TCMS V3
TCMS V3 has officially been released and we welcome and encourage all FingerTec customers to experience this software with all its useful features in a new database platform. TCMS V3 is designed on MS Access DB platform initially and the development will start for MySQL very soon.
For those who have been comfortable using TCMS V2, you need to start paying attention and switch to TCMS V3 now because TCMS V3 is tailored to fulfill your current requirements and your future as well. Let's find out why you need to make that switch.
Change for the Better
TCMS V2 has been a really good software for many of our customers but the database of V2 is stuck in the prehistoric age of the database world. Leaving FoxPro behind, TCMS V3 is designed initially on MS Access for easier installation and implementation based on our vast customer feedbacks and later on the development will be carried out on MySQL to cater to larger database requirements.
It Comes Bundled
The bundling of Time Attendance products with TCMS V3 will officially start on 1st October 2016 and after the said date, all requests on TCMS V2 copies will be chargeable at USD15 per unit.
Have All The V2 Functions and Then Some
TCMS V3 comes with all the functions in the predecessor TCMS V2 and many more features such as batch user addition, scheduling wizard, various language selection and many more.
FCC Compatible
You can connect your attendance terminals to the cloud storage at FingerTec Cloud Center, FCC and export the data to TCMS V3 smoothly with a press of a button.
User-Friendlier
With TCMS V3, user experience has also been improved with more descriptions and hints to provide customers with positive experience better than what we’ve presented in TCMS V2.
Compatible with Future Readers
Development for TCMS V2 will not be continued but TCMS V3’s has just started. TCMS V3 will be the complementary software for FingerTec time and attendance products for the future and eventually all have to switch to TCMS V3.
Customization is Possible

| There's more to Google than the search engine, actually |
I came across an interesting question last week: What will happen to Facebook after Facebook? This happened during my daily market research (aka the 30-minutes of random surfing I do before starting work) as I read an article that questioned if Facebook, the company, was prepared for business if Facebook, the social networking site, would one day become obsolete. This is important, because a good company shouldn't simply bank on one product as every product has its market shelf life. That's why Google, the company, is more than just Google, the search engine. So what about FingerTec? Do we stop merely at fingerprint technology? Of course not! Read more to see how we've placed our core, actual and augmented products.

Pricing
Upon entering FingerTec HQ last year, I was given a rough picture of FingerTec's marketing strategies including a hand-drawn graph of where the company stood in the market in terms of pricing by my always-on-the-go COO, Ms. Norana Johar. A very high-tech presentation, indeed. Jokes aside, the pricing strategies used revealed a lot about the company just like it would for any other company and I'm not at liberty to discuss them in detail. Therefore, I will instead discuss certain aspects about pricing in general, and try to see if we can relate it back to FingerTec. Wish me luck. Now let's read more!

Promotion
Any self-respecting Malaysian knows what truly unites the population:
Our three (yes, THREE) major shopping seasons in the country.
The nationwide shopping periods have been an excellent promotional tool as it
helps build Malaysia’s profile as a shopping destination in South East Asia.
While FingerTec can only dream of using the country’s abundance of wealth and
resources to promote the company, it is not impossible for us to achieve the
trifecta of promotional objectives; To present information, increase demand
& create product differentiation. On a surface level, most of FingerTec's promotions are done on the Internet while some actually requires our physical presence overseas. As a whole, these efforts can be categorized into sales-related and non-sales promotions. Read more for juicier details.

FingerTec can go
even further than Sun Wukong's vision
|
Place
When Sun Wukong of the literary masterpiece ‘Journey to the West’ was
challenged by Buddha to leave his gigantic palm, the Monkey King didn’t
hesitate to jump from Buddha’s hand – to get out of that place. Little
did he know that even though he can leap 108,000 miles in a leap, everything in
the world was ‘in Buddha’s hands’. In its own way, this is comparable to
FingerTec’s place in the time attendance and access control industry.
You might travel 108,000 miles away from our humble headquarters in Selangor,
Malaysia, but you’ll still see our name almost anywhere locally,
internationally or on the Web. Place, then, is just a concept. Read more
to understand why.

User Interface Defines User-Friendliness
 |
| Innovators are betting on new interfaces to drive computing power |
Since the foray of personal computers into our life during the last three decades, monitors, keyboards and mouses have remained as the most essential interface devices for human to interact with computers. Even though we observed some minor improvements like monitors from bulky to flat, to higher resolution; keyboards from big to smaller; and mice from cabled to wireless; the nature of the medium stayed put.
It remained that way until computing power were compressed into tablets and smartphones, where the new human interface started to observe a real change, and the change is obviously welcomed and quickly situated the once dominant PC-era to a post-PC era.
Thinking About Managing Attendance: 10 Reasons Why TimeTec Cloud is the Best Choice for You
 |
| Still contemplating on TimeTec Cloud? Fret not. |
Cloud system is the trend these
days. A growing number of companies are deploying cloud-computing systems in
their operations and many more are considering the same move. According to a
recent study of 1,300 U.S and U.K executives, conducted by Rackspace Hosting
with support from Manchester Business School in the UK, 58% of the respondents
agree that cloud system is cost-saving through avoiding IT infrastructure cost,
while 48% of them agreed that cloud systems give them the ability to scale up
cost effectively. That, amongst many other reasons, is one of the important of
why cloud should be implemented.
Believing cloud is the next best
thing, we developed TimeTec Cloud – a cloud-based time attendance management
software suitable for all from SMEs to large corporations. The software offers
a maximum of 14 columns of records for viewing and checking, 26 types of
readily formatted reports, which you can view, save or print in various formats
and the flexibility to export the attendance data into CSV or XLS format as
input to a 3rd party payroll or software. With TimeTec Cloud, all
you need to do is register, set your attendance rules in the application, sync
it with the biometrics hardware and you are ready to roll.

Cloud? Fret not. Read more for 10 reasons that make
TimeTec Cloud the best choice out there.
6 Handy Housekeeping Tips for TCMS V2

| I wish I've done housekeeping before! |
FACT: It’s a disaster
waiting to happen. Imagine not cleaning your house for 6 months. Yes, that’s the reaction I’m looking for. The
same applies to TCMS V2.
SYMPTOMS: You start to
experience snail-speed performance when viewing attendance sheet and downloading
clocking data from USB. If you are lucky, you might even get to experience a ‘hang’
during editing of Attendance Sheet.
REMEDY: I strongly
recommend you to perform housekeeping for your TCMS V2 software once every 3
months to keep it performing at an optimal level. Read more for my 6 Handy
Housekeeping Tips compiled for your easy reference.

When
Mark Zuckerberg wants to work with you, he’ll walk with you through the woods
behind the Facebook headquarters. At the end of the hike, Mark will
simultaneously ‘unveil’ a breathtaking view of Silicon Valley along with an
offer you can’t refuse – a job position or business offer from Facebook. Well, since Puchong is no Palo Alto, I
did not expect a walk through the woods with FingerTec CEO, Mr Teh Hon Seng. I
did, however, hope for other seemly practices that would make me go, “wow, FingerTec
people are different” while working here. I wasn’t disappointed there. Read
