Solutions to Your Needs

HR in Africa is broken.
We fixed it.

Three problems cripple every HR team across Tanzania and East Africa. Ellertek WFA was designed specifically to solve all three.

Problem 01

The internet goes down. Your whole HR system dies with it.

Cloud HR tools require a stable connection. In Tanzania — with power cuts, Starlink outages, fibre disruptions, and mobile data drops — that's a daily gamble. Your staff still show up, but you can't track them, approve leave, or access any records.

📵No internet connection
Cloud HR is now unavailable
⚠️ Cannot access employee records
Attendance blocked. Try again later.
Problem 02

Excel was built for numbers, not for people.

Tracking 50 employees across multiple spreadsheets is a disaster waiting to happen. One wrong cell creates a staff dispute. A missing leave record becomes a legal liability. HR managers waste hours every week doing work that should take minutes.

Problem 03

Employee files exist everywhere except where you need them.

Contracts in a drawer. Appraisals in an email thread from 2022. Disciplinary letters on someone's personal laptop. When an employee disputes something or you face an audit, the file you need is never where you expect it.

Works 100% offline.
Always.

Ellertek WFA lives on your own server inside your building. Not in the cloud. Not on someone else's server in Europe. Every function — attendance, leave approvals, records access, reports — works whether internet is up or down.

From Our Clients

Trusted across Tanzania.

Real businesses. Real results. Here's what HR managers across Tanzania say about Ellertek WFA.

★★★★★

“Managing attendance and leave for 60 staff in Excel was a disaster. One wrong cell caused a staff dispute that took weeks to resolve. Now everything is in one place, reports take seconds, and disputes are gone.”

RK
Rose Kambi
HR Manager · Dar es Salaam
🏥 Healthcare Group
★★★★★

“We have 180 staff across two factories. When the internet goes down — and it does, every week — we used to be completely stuck. Now the system just keeps running. No excuses, no delays, no stress.”

JM
Joseph Msangi
Operations Director · Mwanza
🏭 Manufacturing
★★★★★

“Leave disputes used to create real tension in our team. Now every request has a timestamp and an approval trail. Staff trust it because the system cannot lie — everything is recorded and visible.”

FA
Fatuma Abdallah
HR Manager · Zanzibar
🏨 Hospitality Group
★★★★★

“Setting up was incredibly simple. Our IT person was away, but I followed the instructions myself and had 45 employees imported from Excel in under 20 minutes. I could not believe it was that easy.”

BN
Baraka Ngowi
School Administrator · Arusha
🏫 Education
★★★★★

“We run three farm sites with over 200 seasonal workers. Tracking their shifts and attendance manually was impossible. Now each site manager logs attendance on their phone and I see everything from the office.”

Farm Operations Manager · Kilimanjaro
🌾 Agriculture
★★★★★

“The biometric integration was the game changer for us. Guards cannot clock in for each other anymore. Attendance is accurate, overtime is calculated correctly, and our security directors are happy.”
