5 Times You Should Have Used a Visitor Management System

Do you know how many visitors you’ve received this year? If your manager request for this data are you able to provide them on a short notice?

If you don’t have an answer, maybe you need a visitor management system.

This is not the only reason you need a visitor Management system. In addition to streamlining your visitor registration processes, a visitor management system can make a big difference in your organization. We believe that making a good first impression on your visitors makes or breaks their trust in you.

We want to show you five times you should have used a visitor management system so you can get one and ‘wow’ your visitors the next time they swing by.

When your receptionist or receptionist lost or damaged the visitors book

Mistakes happen, but you don’t want your visitors’ data to be lost, or in end up in the wrong hands. The good news is that a visitor management system can simplify your visitor registration by automating the check-in process and securely storing all the sign-in information.

By placing a visitor management system at your front desk, you empower your visitors to check themselves in, get visitor badges, and notify their hosts without needing help from your receptionist. This will  can your receptionist’s productivity and save time.

That time someone gave you a fake identity

It true that some people don’t carry ID’s and are averse to sharing their true identities to the officers manning your security desk. It may be possible that your visitor’s name was truly James Bond, but you can’t ever be too sure. A visitor management system drastically improves your site’s security by preventing people from using fake IDs or fake information.

For instance, a check-in system can automatically extract Identification Data from government issued ID’s or passports, check someone’s face or record against a database and will tell you if that ID is fake or not. It can also store facial data for recurring visitors, reducing the need for constant check-ins. In our case, we also integrations so you can check your visitor records with government databases.

After that failed emergency drill

Your employees might know your security protocols, but what about contractors and visitors? If you haven’t told them about your emergency protocols, they might not know what to do during an emergency, and that’s a nightmare nobody wants to face.

A visitor management system can help you face emergencies better, alerting everybody — including your visitors — within your premises that something’s not right at the click of a button. Also, the system will provide you a checklist of everyone who has signed in, making it easier to identify every visitor after an emergency.

During those hectic days when you have many visitors

Let’s say you’re hiring people for the front desk after those visitors books got lost. Probably you’ll have a ton of visitors one after the other, and keeping track of everyone, even with enough staff, can be a problem. This headache is more than common than you think, but it’s one of the easiest to fix.

A check-in app can help your employees run their days smoothly by enabling them to gain control over their meetings with external people. Using the app, people on your site can send meeting request alerts to visitors, enabling them to sign-in prior to arriving or even notify their hosts if they’re running late or have arrived.

That day when security spotted a shady character around your site

Let’s face it, workplaces can be hard to monitor, and often, we don’t really know the number of people on-site. Think of a hospital or a store, where everyone can walk in without being questioned. It’s hard to know who’s a legitimate visitor and who’s not.

This is where a visitor management app comes in to help. With the help of an app, you can enhance your site’s security and know exactly who’s legitimate or not, and who left and when. This is also true for unmanned sites where sensitive equipment or machinery might be at stake.

Instead of relying on people and paper for visitor management, why not try a digital visitor management system? Set up a free 30-day trial.
