⏱️ Time Management

Ready for Belgium's 2027 time registration law.

Every Belgian employer must have an objective, reliable way to record working time by 1 January 2027. Exalise's RFID clock-in system gets you there — tap in, tap out, and every hour is logged automatically. No paper, no spreadsheets, no enterprise HR suite to fight with.

Time registration software, in two sentences

Exalise Time Management is time registration software that lets employees clock in and out with an RFID badge or a tablet webapp — every entry is automatically timestamped, stored, and turned into a report your accountant or HR office can use as-is.

No paper timesheets, no Excel file someone has to add up by hand every month, and no enterprise HR suite that needs a months-long rollout.

Not another HR suite. Not a bare punch clock.

Most time-tracking tools are built for companies ten times your size, or for none at all. Exalise sits exactly where a KMO needs it.

Basic clock-in apps

Register a tap, and that's it. No real schedules, no part-time or leave handling, no report your accountant can actually use.

Exalise Time Management

RFID clock-in, real schedules, part-time and leave built in, and a monthly overview your HR office can use — nothing more, nothing less.

Enterprise HR suites

Built for a 500-person HR department, priced and configured to match. Months of onboarding for features you will never touch.

Built for KMOs with 5 to 50 employees. Full stop.

What Time Management actually is

  • RFID or iPad clock-in, without the hassle
  • Real schedules, with part-time and leave built in
  • A monthly report your accountant can actually use
  • A fixed price, visible before you call
  • Running within a day

What it isn't

  • Not a full HR platform with payroll or leave requests
  • Not a months-long implementation project
  • Not a consultant selling you a workshop first
  • Not a "request a quote" before you see a price

Nothing to buy to get started

Use an iPad or tablet you already have. No reader, no badges, no waiting on delivery.

The same schedules and reports

Under the hood it's the exact same system as with RFID — same schedules, same monthly reports.

Upgrade whenever you want

Move to RFID badges whenever you're ready. No new setup, no lost data.

Low barrier to entry

Start without RFID hardware

Not sure yet, or don't want to invest in readers and badges right away? Run Time Management as a web app on an iPad or tablet you already own — employees check in on the screen, no card or reader needed. Switch to RFID badges whenever you're ready; all your data carries over.

How clock-in works — RFID card or webapp

🪪 RFID badge 📱 iPad webapp
  1. 1

    Employee clocks in

    With a tap of the RFID badge on the reader, or by selecting their name on the iPad web app — no PIN, no login, either way.

  2. 2

    Instant registration

    The system records the clock-in with a precise timestamp in under a second, whichever method was used.

  3. 3

    Data is stored

    The session is saved to the database and immediately visible to management.

  4. 4

    Reports update live

    Attendance, overtime, and scheduling reports reflect the new entry instantly — badge or webapp, it makes no difference.

Piloted in a real KMO

Tested for three months at Esma NV

Before offering Time Management to other businesses, we ran it ourselves — three months, ten employees, at Esma NV. The goal wasn't just working software. It was software an employer with no HR department can actually manage, on top of everything else running a small business already demands.

Esma NV's team includes part-time staff and employees on parental leave, so the schedule engine had to handle real exceptions, not just a nine-to-five default. And at the end of each month, the business needed one clean overview it could hand straight to its HR office — not a spreadsheet someone had to rebuild by hand.

Built for real schedules

Part-time hours, parental leave, and day-by-day overrides — handled without a workaround.

Easy for the employer

No dedicated HR admin required. Set it up once, and the monthly numbers take care of themselves.

HR-ready exports

A monthly overview built to hand straight to your accountant or HR office — not reformatted by hand.

Before vs. after

Without Exalise

  • Employees fill in paper timesheets
  • HR manually adds up hours each month
  • Errors and disputes about who worked when
  • No easy way to check late arrivals
  • Overtime calculations done in spreadsheets

With Exalise

  • RFID tap registers instantly — no manual entry
  • Reports generated automatically
  • Full audit trail for every clock-in and clock-out
  • Late arrivals flagged automatically
  • Overtime calculated and visible at a glance

Time registration software vs. Excel

Excel doesn't cost anything extra — until it goes wrong. Here's what changes when you switch.

What matters Excel file Exalise Time Management
Objective & verifiable No — figures are entered by hand and can't be verified after the fact Yes — every tap is timestamped and stored automatically
Time spent per month Manually adding up and correcting hours The report builds itself
Part-time & leave Every exception is a manual formula Built into the schedule engine
Audit trail None — cells can be edited later with no trace Full log of every clock-in and clock-out
Risk at inspection High — unlikely to meet the 2027 law Built to meet the requirements
Time to set up Instant, but grows into a time sink Running within a day

Read the full breakdown: does Excel comply with the law?

What does it actually save you?

A short calculation instead of a vague promise.

Count the hours you or your HR office currently lose each month collecting, correcting, and adding up hours — in Excel, on paper, or over WhatsApp messages. Multiply that by that person's hourly cost. That's the cost already hiding in your process today, before you even factor in the compliance risk at an inspection.

Time registration software removes that adding-up and correcting work: entries are correct from the start, schedules account for part-time and leave automatically, and the monthly report is ready without anyone assembling it.

Frequently asked questions

What is time registration software?

Time registration software is a digital system that automatically records when employees start and stop working — via an RFID badge, app, or webapp — instead of manual timesheets or Excel files.

Is time registration software mandatory in Belgium?

From 1 January 2027, every Belgian employer must have an objective, reliable way to record working time. Digital time registration software is the most practical way to meet that requirement.

What does time registration software cost for an SME?

Exalise Time Management has an indicative price from €4 per employee per month for the webapp, or €7 per employee per month including an RFID reader. Final rates follow at launch — current participants test it via the pilot programme.

Does an Excel file comply with the new legislation?

Almost certainly not. The law requires an objective and reliable system — an Excel file filled in by hand can't be independently verified after the fact.

Do I need RFID hardware to get started?

No. You can start with the webapp on an iPad or tablet you already own, and switch to RFID badges later with no data loss.

What company size is this built for?

Exalise Time Management is built specifically for SMEs with 5 to 50 employees — too big for a bare punch clock, too small for an enterprise HR suite.
