Digital Persona U.are.U 4500 Fingerprint Reader

The product is very good

I bought it but there is no support instructions at all. I have window 11 and I am sure it doesn't work with window 11. Since yesterday I am trying my best but nothing to do. Before using it we need to install some drivers but it does not work anyway. Do not buy.

Very neat device. Works well with a SDK from Crossmatch both in Windows 7 64-bit and Ubuntu Linux 14.04 32-bit.

We use one of these to speed up logging into various websites and programs where we are forced to log in throughout the day. Now we can login just by putting a finger on the fingerprint reader. We are able to login to windows 7 this way and various websites via IE. However some software is not supported (chrome the last time we looked). We have still found it to be a great time saver. It also allows people to login to only the programs/websites they need. If they try to do anything without permission they don't know the PCs passwords so are unable to access them. We have tried a few fingerprint readers and this one is the only one we found to be reliable and work straight away 99.5% of the time. it is also very quick (responds in 1 second).

Painfully expensive piece of e-waste. Enrolment appears to work but then the finger is not recognized. Tried both on Windows and Linux for a solid 0% chance of success. Tried multiple fingers and hands, and even asked a friend to try in case my prints were somehow special. Nothing.

Not compatible

The product is okay but until now I can’t use it because it’s need some kind of drivers which I didn’t have nor ordered.

Don't buy one of these unless you are a software programmer and can write your own software to get this item working. An extensive search of the net shows that there is no longer any software around for general use to get this device working. It would no doubt serve as a replacement on a computer that already has one of these installed - but that's about it. I don't think Amazon should be listing these for sale any more, as its misleading to buyers. I'm still trying to get a refund on the one I bought.

Den fungerar inte. Trotts väldigt många försök att läsa in mina fingrar, så "minns" den bara mina fingeravtryck i 1 dag. Sedan måste jag göra om inläsningen av fingret för att det skall fungera igen. Har provat den i flera veckor, har felsökt och installerat om den enligt tillverkarens anvisningar och alltid med tillverkarens drivrutiner, men det fungerar bara den första dagen. Sedan fungerar det inte. Har även provat med andra fingrar, samt även provat på en annan dator. Inget hjälper. Denna fingeravtrycksläsare är en stor besvikelse och alla pengar var bortkastade. Köp inte! Kommer aldrig rekommendera någon att använda denna produkt.

Uso muchos para registro de consumo de alimentos en comedores, en Delsscom fabricamos software a la medida y nos es muy eficaz en el registro por huellas.

I highly recommend this fingerprint reader if you are looking for one that is compatible with both Windows 11 and Ubuntu-Linux operating systems (I know from experience these are difficult to find). I purchased this reader to use with my Windows 11 HP laptop that I also dual-boot with Ubuntu. Initial setup with both operating systems were very straightforward. In Windows 11, after downloading one driver (the packaging includes a card with a link to download different drivers based on the OS) the reader was immediately detected/operational. In Ubuntu, the reader was simply plug-and-play. The reader itself feels premium and well-made, and has rubber feet on the bottom that prevents it from sliding when you scan your finger. Another bonus is that the fingerprint reader functioned on both operating systems concurrently (I didn't have to remove and re-install the reader when booting between Windows and Ubuntu.

This is a Linux configurable Fingerprint sensor. Works with libfprint on many Linux distros. I tried Mint and Kubuntu. Both worked. Expensive but worth the price if you value FP signins. Device is feels solid. Some failure to read, but it seems that may be from it reading faster than some apps can react. I would recommend this device.
