Gracias

I am excited to announce the latest Spokeware functionality. Spokeware is starting to roll out multi-lingual prompts with Spanish as the initial language to support in addition to the English prompts.

The prompts will be displayed alongside the English prompts for ease of usage.

Punch In-Out 2011-08-07 17-04-35

 

Offline Support

Spokeware is a Web 2.0 application, meaning that it runs as a web application and connects directly to our servers for real time punching in/out. This is important as our managers would like to view time sheets, budgets and other dashboard information in real-time as employees punch in/out and use the system.

Real-time connectivity offers numerous advantages but can pose a challenge if the network connection is lost intermittently. With the latest release of Spokeware we added offline support. If the network connectivity is lost employees will still be able to punch in/out using Spokeware. Once connectivity resumes the punches will be synchronized with the server and will appear in timesheets, budgets and dashboards.

 

RESTful Integration

For our partners interested in integrating their hardware devices, such as Point of Sale devices, or specialty software with Spokeware we now offer a RESTful API for easy integration.

REST stands for Representational State Transfer. We use APIs that adhere to industry standards such as those used by Amazon and Google. Using our open API any client can develop their own methods of punch in/out to Spokeware and build any user interface on top of that. Integrating with our open APIs requires merely few lines of standard REST calls.

 

If you have any questions on how to use the new functionality please contact your friendly support specialist.
