Case Study: HCL Infosystems streamlines attendance management with Microsoft Azure Face Recognition

HCL Infosystems Face Recognition technology powered by Microsoft Azure

HCL Infosystems, a large IT services company in India, faced a challenge with its inefficient and non-compliant employee attendance systems. To find a more seamless and effective solution for managing attendance for its large workforce, the company turned to Microsoft and its Azure Cognitive Services, specifically the Face API.

Microsoft's solution enabled HCL Infosystems to build "MyID," a customized, cloud-based attendance system powered by face recognition technology. The system drastically reduced the time to mark attendance to under two seconds and plugged compliance gaps from the old methods. Using Microsoft Power BI for analytics, the company gained valuable insights into attendance trends across the organization, streamlining its entire management process.
