Features

WPS-Friendly Salary Processing

Run flexible, multi-currency payroll for your Dubai team in AED or any currency you operate in. Configure salary structures with basic pay, housing, transport, and other allowances, then generate professional payslips for every employee. Export clean, structured salary data that can be aligned with your bank's WPS (Wage Protection System) format for monthly wage transfers.

GPS & Mobile Attendance

Let staff punch in from their phones with GPS location capture and geo-fencing around your office, site, or free zone unit. Perfect for teams spread across DMCC, JLT, Dubai Internet City, and remote or hybrid setups. Attendance, late marks, and overtime flow straight into payroll with no manual registers or biometric hardware required.

Employee Records & Documents

Keep a single, secure record for every employee — passport and visa details, Emirates ID, contract type, salary history, and reporting line. Store offer letters, labour contracts, and ID copies in a searchable document vault. Set visa and document expiry reminders so renewals are never missed across your workforce.

Leave & Shift Management

Employees apply for annual, sick, and unpaid leave on mobile; managers approve in one tap. Build shift rosters for retail, hospitality, and operations teams, and track who is on duty across multiple locations. Leave balances and shift data sync automatically into attendance and salary processing.

Built-In CRM & Sales Pipeline

Manage leads, follow-ups, calls, and deals alongside your HR data — no separate CRM subscription needed. Sales managers track the pipeline while HR tracks headcount, all under one login. Ideal for Dubai SMEs and trading companies that want sales and people operations in a single platform.

Projects, Tasks & KPIs

Plan projects, assign tasks, and track deadlines for distributed teams. Set KPIs and targets for each role, review progress on live dashboards, and keep everyone aligned across time zones. Expenses, assets, and team chat are built in, so your whole operation lives in one workspace instead of a dozen disconnected apps.

Finance & Expense Dashboards

Track company expenses, employee reimbursements, and asset allocations in real time. Finance dashboards summarise spend by department, project, and category so founders and managers always know where the money is going. Approve or reject expense claims from your phone and keep a clean audit trail.

Secure Cloud Access for Multi-Location Teams

Avani Business OS is a fully cloud platform — your team logs in from any office, free zone, branch, or home with role-based permissions. Manage staff across several emirates or countries from one account, with separate holiday calendars and policies per location. No servers, no installs, and no dedicated IT team to maintain it.

Key benefits

How it works

  1. Add Your Dubai Team — Import existing employee data from a spreadsheet or add staff manually. Capture visa, Emirates ID, and contract details, then set up salary structures and allowances in AED or your operating currency. Configure leave policies and holiday calendars for each location.
  2. Automate Daily Operations — Employees mark attendance on mobile, apply for leave, and download payslips without emailing HR. Managers approve requests on the go, sales teams update the CRM pipeline, and project owners track tasks — all from one app on any device.
  3. Process Payroll & Review Insights — Each cycle, payroll pulls attendance and leave data automatically, calculates salaries and allowances, and generates payslips. Export structured salary data that aligns with your bank's WPS file, then review live HR, sales, and finance dashboards for decisions.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best HR software for Dubai?

Avani Business OS is a strong all-in-one choice for Dubai businesses because it combines HR, payroll, attendance, CRM, projects, and finance in a single cloud platform. For a Dubai team it handles employee records with visa and Emirates ID tracking, GPS mobile attendance for office and remote staff, leave and shift management, and flexible multi-currency salary processing in AED. It generates payslips and lets you export structured salary data that can be aligned with your bank's WPS (Wage Protection System) file — so a single, affordable platform covers what most SMEs would otherwise buy three or four separate tools to do.

Does Avani Business OS support UAE WPS payroll?

Avani provides WPS-friendly salary processing. You configure salaries and allowances, run payroll, generate payslips, and export clean, structured salary data that can be aligned with the WPS (Wage Protection System) file your bank or exchange house requires for wage transfers. To be clear, Avani does not perform automated government WPS filing or connect directly to UAE banking and labour systems — it prepares and exports the salary data, and your finance team or bank completes the WPS submission.

Can Avani handle multi-currency payroll for Dubai companies?

Yes. Salary processing is flexible and not locked to a single currency, so you can run payroll in AED for your Dubai team and in other currencies for staff based elsewhere. This suits the many multinational and Indian-owned businesses in Dubai that operate across several countries and need consistent payslips and salary records for a mixed workforce.

Is the platform suitable for DMCC or JAFZA?

Absolutely. Because Avani is cloud-based with GPS mobile attendance and role-based access, it works well for companies in free zones such as DMCC, JLT, Dubai Internet City, and JAFZA, as well as mainland businesses. You can manage teams across multiple units and locations from one account, with separate holiday calendars and leave policies per site.

How does mobile attendance work for Dubai teams?

Employees punch in and out from the Avani mobile app, which captures GPS location and can use geo-fencing around your office or work site. This is well suited to hybrid teams, field staff, and businesses with people across several emirates. Attendance, overtime, and late marks feed directly into leave balances and salary processing without any biometric hardware.

Do I need IT servers to run Avani?

No. Avani Business OS is delivered fully in the cloud, so there is nothing to install and no server to maintain. You and your team simply log in from a browser or the mobile app. This keeps it practical and low-cost for Dubai SMEs and startups that do not have a dedicated IT department.

Can Avani manage sales and projects too?

Yes — that is the core idea of a Business OS. Alongside HR and payroll, you get a built-in CRM for leads, calls, and deals, plus project and task management, KPIs and targets, expenses, assets, and team chat. A Dubai trading company or agency can run people operations, the sales pipeline, and project delivery from one login instead of stitching together separate subscriptions.

Is Avani good for Indian-owned Dubai businesses?

It is a particularly good fit. Dubai has a large community of Indian-owned and multinational companies that often manage teams across both the UAE and other countries. Avani's multi-currency salary processing, cloud access from anywhere, multi-location support, and combined HR-plus-CRM workspace make it easy to run a distributed, cross-border operation from a single platform.
