We've come a long way in 40 years..
Formerly part of the Hengstler group of companies, we started business in the UK in 1971. In 1997, following a management buy out, we became hfx Ltd. The long-established German company developed the concept of "Flextime" in the 1970's, and began to supply a variety of mechanical time recording systems, some of which are still in use today. We introduced the concept of flexible working hours to the UK in 1971 and "Flextime®" is our registered trademark.
The 1980's saw the development of the Datamod system and the evolution of our first PC based systems beginning with Emudat and PIAS, a DOS based system. The emergence of such products heralded a revolution in time recording and established hfx (then Hengstler) as market leaders, pioneering technological advancements and promoting the concept of Flextime® to a rapidly growing market.
1996 saw the launch of WinTime, our first Windows based package. Constant, customer-driven development and innovation over the years has made WinTime a market-leading software. WinTime is now available as a multi-user networked system, web enabled, with online modules and multi-site administration.
Our approach in recent years has been to focus on providing ‘One Card- One Solution’ a fully integrated system which incorporates access control, Photo ID production and Time Analysis, with the ability to integrate with major HR and Payroll systems.
In 2009, we launched our brand new system, Etarmis- the next generation in time and attendance recording systems. From speaking to our customers, we realised that our next development needed to incorporate all the benefits and features of the WinTime system but offer more flexibility, enhanced security and interfaces with other HR systems. Whether you are an office with only a few employees, or an entire organisation that employees hundreds of thousands of employees spread over offices world wide, Etarmis can cater for your requirements.
Whatever your needs we have a solution. For organisations who do not require an integrated system hfx also supply standalone systems- as simple or as sophisticated as you require.
