How our Visitor Management System Works
Replace the pen-and-paper sign-in process with front desk automation that handles visitor registration, host notifications, and badge printing. Signing in visitors with a tablet, visitor kiosk, or QR code is much faster and more efficient, especially with the pre-registration feature.
The visitor signs themselves in using the device (or through contactless sign-in), fills in the form, signs agreements, and claims the printed badge.
The host (employee) gets instantly notified of the visitor’s arrival via Email, SMS, Teams, or Slack.
In a short amount of time, the guest is warmly greeted and welcomed by their host.
The visitor signs out by searching their name on the system and optionally fills in a visitor satisfaction survey.
Digital Reception Software That Works With Your Team
Vizito will transform your reception area into a modern digital front desk. Some fear that visitor management software will replace real-life receptionists or overcomplicate the sign-in process, however, these are both myths. While visitor sign-in software can reduce costs for smaller companies, it is actually best used in combination with a receptionist.
Receptionists have heavy workloads and automating repetitive tasks will allow them to prioritize providing a warm welcome and offering assistance with questions. Our customers also often get compliments on how easy and intuitive it is for their visitors to use our self-service kiosk. At the same time, you can keep track of your visitors and make data-driven decisions to improve the overall visitor experience with minimal effort.
What is a Visitor Management System (VMS)?
A visitor management system is workplace security software that tracks people entering and leaving your premises. This digital reception software replaces traditional pen-and-paper logbooks with a modern visitor sign-in app that makes a great first impression.
Beyond simple registration, visitor tracking software provides a real-time overview of everyone on-site, sends automatic host notifications, triggers emergency alerts, and much more. Read our complete guide to visitor management systems.
Who Needs a Visitor Management System?
Any organization that receives visitors benefits from front desk automation. It is a common misconception that visitor tracking software is only for larger enterprises. A self-service visitor kiosk helps both the visitor and the company save time, making it especially valuable for small to medium-sized businesses with limited reception staff.
If you are not sure if it is the right choice for you, read on to learn more about the benefits, how it works, and its key features.
What are the Benefits?
Save Time and Resources
Make the sign-in process easy for everyone involved. Your staff can use their time and energy to focus on more value-adding tasks while your visitors are still welcomed into your office in an exceptional way. By digitizing the workflow, these systems can streamline the sign-in process and eliminate the need for manual data entry, resulting in reduced wait times for visitors.
Make a Great First Impression
Impress your visitors from the moment they enter with a seamless sign-in experience on a modern registration app that reflects your brand identity. With a VMS, visitors can pre-register before they arrive, so they know what to expect when they come on-site. Once they arrive, they can check in easily with a self-service kiosk or a tablet. The process is quick and efficient, saving visitors time and hassle, and ensuring they feel welcome and valued.
Gain visibility and control
With a digital VMS, you can accurately track and audit visitor activity. Compared to paper logbooks, there is better visibility and control over who is on the premises at any given time. By capturing and storing visitor information, these systems can provide valuable insights into visitor behavior, including how frequently visitors come and go, and how long they stay.
Manage and Protect Data
In terms of managing data, digital visitor registration solutions can help protect the data of visitors by eliminating the need for paper logbooks. These sign-in sheets are visible to other people and can potentially expose the information of your other visitors. VMS can help you be in compliance with requirements and privacy regulations like GDPR. According to the European Data Protection Board, organizations processing visitor data must implement appropriate technical and organizational measures.
Increase Safety and Security
Be at ease knowing that you are in a secure place with visitor screening and measures in case of emergency. Enhance visitor safety during a mass evacuation by preventing panic and alerting visitors promptly to promote calmness. Demonstrate that health and safety are a priority in your company by offering contactless sign-in options to keep your workplace hygienic and minimize physical contact.
Standardize Across Locations
Customize your VMS to reflect the needs of your different locations while still providing a consistent check-in process and a standardized framework for managing visitors. Ensure you have a centralized record of visitor activity across all locations to help with compliance and reporting requirements.
