Visitor management system: Efficiency and security for your organisation

Visitor management system: a tool for organisations

Visitor management systems are tools that help organisations create and implement their policies. As companies realise the value of keeping track of visitors, many organisations are switching from paper sign-in books to digital systems. These systems do more than just record who comes in; they also track how long visitors stay!

Visitors can be a valuable source of revenue, but only if they are managed properly. Policies and processes vary by organisation or type of facility, but are essential to keep track of what can be expected. Visitor management should be a proud part of your operations!

For some organisations, just registering a name is sufficient. Other organisations with more stringent security requirements may need more steps, such as providing badges or legal documents, to ensure that only authorised people are allowed access to the building or office.

How digital visitor management systems work

1. Check in
   On arrival, the visitor enters his name and details on an electronic device, such as a tablet or computer. If necessary, he takes a selfie or signs documents digitally.
2. Notifications
   The employee receives a notification as soon as the visitor arrives. The system automatically alerts the right person, opens any access doors and ensures that security checks take place without delay.
3. Warm welcome
   Staff are ready to warmly welcome visitors, regardless of the time or person.
