How to choose visitor management software
6 criteria · Requirements by company size · 5 red flags
Choose on the guest's path through your building: invitation, arrival, check-in, badge, host alert, access and sign-out. The tool should make that path faster for guests and safer for you.
Run a real check-in at the demo with a kiosk or tablet you would actually use, including a pre-registered guest and a walk-in.
Check-in experience
A slow or confusing kiosk creates lobby queues and pushes staff back to paper.
Host notifications
Guests waiting for a host who does not know they arrived is the most common complaint.
Document signing and screening
NDAs, safety briefings and screening questions must be captured at entry, not after.
Watchlists and security screening
Some sites must stop specific people from entering or alert security.
Emergency roll call
During an evacuation you need a current list of everyone on site, guests included.
Access control and badge integration
Linking visitor passes to doors and turnstiles removes manual badge issuing.
