Price Range of Fingerprint Scanners
Currently, fingerprint scanners or fingerprint scanning devices are widely available on the market. Most are products imported from China and Korea, with some being assembled domestically, but important components are still imported from abroad. Regarding the price range of fingerprint scanning devices for recording work entry and exit times, they range from 9,000 baht to 35,000 baht. If a company has a small number of employees, not exceeding 200-300 people, they can use a device priced at no more than 15,000 baht. However, if there are more employees, you would need to consider purchasing a device that can handle a higher number of fingerprints, which would be priced between 18,000-35,000 baht.
Some may wonder why you need to pay more, because looking at the specifications of each fingerprint scanner model and brand, the fingerprint capacity is not very different. So why do some models have prices more than half higher than others? The reason is that the technology used to verify fingerprints differs between brands. The verification speed is different. Some models use high-speed CPU processors that allow for faster processing and searching. Some models use fingerprint verification technology with higher efficiency, with fewer chances of errors and no misidentification of fingerprints.
These factors cause the prices of devices from different brands to vary. Therefore, you should assess your requirements to determine what level of needs you have. Questions that fingerprint scanner device sellers typically ask you include the following: 1. How many users are there? 2. Do your employees work with chemicals or moisture? 3. Do you work in shifts? 4. Do you already have a Payroll program?
If you provide complete information, it will help the seller select a product and model that is suitable for your use—not too low or too high.
