What it does
Factorial’s Time & Attendance feature supports employee clocking through desktop and mobile, geolocation, QR codes, shared-device identification, and facial recognition. It also covers work schedules, breaks, and timesheets. Factorial’s pricing page says plans start at $8 per user per month and are tailored to each organization.
Factorial approaches time tracking through an HR and attendance system, not as a standalone project timer. The official feature page lists several clock-in methods, including mobile geolocation, QR code, shared devices, and face recognition, alongside work schedules, breaks, and timesheets. The pricing page gives a starting per-user amount, but Factorial says it builds tailored packages, so that starting price does not establish that every clocking method or compliance feature is included. Teams should confirm the plan scope and regional pricing before adopting it. The pages were reviewed for features and price; I did not configure attendance rules or payroll.
