There is no single "best" HACCP tool — there's the right tool for your gap. This guide breaks the UAE market into three categories, shows how to choose, and is honest about where each type fits, including where WOLKIS does and doesn't apply.
Most tools fall into one of three groups. The mistake is buying procedures software when your real gap is continuous temperature evidence — or vice versa.
| Capability | Checklist apps | Generic IoT | WOLKIS |
|---|---|---|---|
| Digital HACCP plan & tasks | Yes | Partial | Yes |
| Continuous 24/7 temperature logging | Manual | Yes | Yes |
| Overnight / weekend coverage | Gaps | Yes | Yes |
| Instant breach alert | No | Often | ~30s Telegram |
| DM / ADAFSA-formatted inspector PDF | Generic | DIY | One-tap |
| WiFi-independent (LoRaWAN + 4G) | — | Varies | Yes |
| UAE-local pricing published | Varies | Varies | From AED 1,400/site/mo |
Comparison reflects typical category behaviour, not every product. Checklist and IoT vendors vary; verify specifics with each vendor.
WOLKIS (operated by Primeshield Software Trading L.L.C, Dubai) is the UAE-local compliance-automation option: LoRaWAN sensors in every fridge, freezer and hot-holding unit, readings ~every 10 minutes 24/7, a Telegram alert within ~30 seconds of a breach, and a one-tap inspector-ready PDF mapped to Dubai Municipality and ADAFSA. All-inclusive from AED 1,400 per site / month. It is not a checklist-only app and not a generic global dashboard — it is built for UAE inspections specifically.

If your priority is continuous, inspector-proof temperature evidence for Dubai Municipality or ADAFSA, a UAE-local compliance-automation platform that combines LoRaWAN sensors with local report formatting (such as WOLKIS) fits that job specifically. Match the tool to whether your gap is procedures or temperature evidence.
Software itself is not mandatory. A documented HACCP-based food safety system is the expected standard under Dubai Food Code 2.0, ADAFSA Code of Practice 29, and UAE Federal Law No. 10 of 2015. Software simply makes the records continuous and inspector-ready instead of manual.
It varies by vendor and number of units. As a UAE reference point, WOLKIS is all-inclusive from AED 1,400 per site per month, covering sensors, gateway, monitoring, alerts and inspector-ready reports.
Coverage of every critical unit, continuous 24/7 reading including overnight, alerting in seconds, food-safe accurate sensors (food-contact report, ±0.5°C, EN 12830 Class 1), connectivity that survives WiFi outages (LoRaWAN + 4G), and one-tap inspector-ready PDF export formatted for Dubai Municipality or ADAFSA.
