BriefQR 作为 Deputy 的替代方案
Considering a Deputy alternative that is just the time clock? BriefQR keeps clock-in/out simple: a printed QR, a device-bound PIN, offline support, and portable export, without the scheduling suite or biometric options.

Just the clock, fewer moving parts
Deputy combines scheduling and time across modules. If you only need attendance data, BriefQR gives you a printed-QR clock and clean timesheets without paying for or learning a scheduling system.
PIN and device binding, no biometrics
Deputy offers facial recognition on its kiosk. BriefQR uses a PIN bound to each worker's device instead, so there is no biometric enrollment and no shared kiosk to maintain.
Soft GPS, open export
BriefQR records location as a review signal rather than continuous tracking, and exports through signed webhook plus REST/CSV. Your hours stay portable and your team is not under live surveillance.
常见问题
Can BriefQR replace Deputy's scheduling?
No. BriefQR does not do scheduling, shift swaps, or labor forecasting. It replaces the time-clock part of Deputy. If scheduling is central, keep Deputy or another scheduler and use BriefQR only for clock-in/out.
Does BriefQR require Deputy's kiosk hardware?
No. BriefQR runs from a printed QR scanned on each worker's phone with a device-bound PIN. There is no shared kiosk tablet to provision, though you can mount one device at an entrance if it suits your site.
Is BriefQR's GPS as detailed as Deputy's?
It is intentionally lighter. BriefQR captures location as a soft signal you can review on a clock-in, not live tracking or geofenced enforcement. If you require strict geofencing, Deputy goes further.
How does the price compare per user?
Deputy is roughly $4.50–$6 per user per module; BriefQR is a flat €4 per active operator with no module split, billed only for operators who clocked in. For variable crews, BriefQR is usually the cheaper of the two.
