What Esfera & Aster Solutions does

Esfera & Aster Solutions, operating under the brand 360TNA, is a Mumbai-headquartered SaaS company founded in 2009 that builds cloud-based time and attendance management software for medium and large enterprises. The 360TNA platform is a modular system comprising twelve integrated modules — Shift Management, Overtime, Leave, Timesheet, Regularization, Work From Home, Geo Attendance with geo-fencing, Device Management for biometric terminals and mobile devices, Contract Management, Visitor Management, Loss of Pay, and Reports & Analytics — augmented by the FacePro facial recognition add-on for contactless clock-in. The technical stack is cloud-delivered, supports biometric, mobile, and geo-fencing capture methods, and is positioned as configurable to organization-specific workflows rather than a one-size-fits-all product.

The company monetizes through annual SaaS subscriptions sold on a quote-based pricing model, with no public rate card disclosed. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales supported by scheduled demos and free consulting sessions, with deployment delivered through certified implementation partners AXLE Systems and Triad Software Services. The customer base spans 160+ enterprise accounts and 127,761+ enrolled users across 10+ industries (Government, Retail, Healthcare, Agriculture, Hospitality, Tourism, Automotive/Aviation, Real Estate, Banking/Financial, Logistics, Oil and Gas/Manufacturing) and 12+ countries, with named logos including Toyota, Shimadzu, Apparel Group, Fitness First, Dubai Bicycle Corporation, babyshop, shoexpress, and homebox.
