Building an advanced workforce management system is no easy task. Where did it all begin?

It started on the Grote Markt

Brilliant ideas often emerge in the most ordinary situations, as demonstrated by Joshua Angnoe. Working as a glass collector at a hospitality business with six locations on the Grote Markt in The Hague, he faced a chaotic scheduling system. Wondering where and when to work was a puzzle.

Joshua believed there had to be a better way. He set out to create a solution, laying the foundation for what would become the Dyflexis Workforce Management system.

Goodbye paper timesheets. Our first clock system turns clocking in and out into something effortless.

We’ve always been proponents of digitalization. As early as 2012, we felt it was archaic and inefficient for employees to write down their worked hours on paper. This could be simpler and easier. Thus, our very first clock system, Rex-O-Matic Hector, was born. This system revolutionized the way employees clock in and out, turning a cumbersome task into something effortless. After all, convenience is key.

In 2020, we launched Rex-O-Matic, enabling automatic clocking in and out using personal passes or phones. Rex-O-Matic has thus become the uncrowned ‘king’ of clock systems.
