Where Onfido is strong
- A long track record in document and biometric verification, with a large customer base.
- Backed by Entrust's wider identity and security portfolio.
- Broad document coverage across many countries.
Where Konnect ID is different
- Regional documents read properly: the Tunisian national ID card in Arabic, front and back, with no machine-readable zone, plus the photo page of any ICAO passport. Other national cards are added per deployment.
- A self-hosted edition: a compiled image on your own servers, with your database and storage, for data that must stay in the country.
- Arabic, French and English on every screen, right-to-left included.
- Every decision explained: each check reports what it found, and automatic decisions record the rule that fired.
- Built with regional rules in mind, such as BCT Circular 2025-06, and a team in Tunis, in your time zone.
Which one to choose
Choose Onfido when you already work with Entrust or need one vendor across many markets. Choose Konnect ID when your customers hold regional ID cards without a machine-readable zone, when data must stay on your servers, or when you need Arabic and French screens and support in your time zone.
Whatever you pick, ask the same questions: which of your customers' documents are read today, where data is processed and stored, whether a reviewer can see why a case was flagged, and what evidence you get for your regulator.
