The Best Features in a Visitor Management System

People often ask us what we think are the best features to have in a visitor management system.

Our answer is: "It depends on your priorities for visitor security and how you wish to be managing visitors at your environment."

For example, colleges, universities and K-12 schools have unique concerns about screening out potential guests who are on the National Sex Offender Database Registry. Our visitor monitoring software for schools allows them to identify and deny entry to anyone on this Registry.

Likewise, government installations often want their visitor registration software to be able to automatically identify people on the Government Denied Database.

Hospitals want to integrate with a number of systems that are specific to their environment, such as Status Blue, which allows them to pre-register approved vendors, and HL7 for real-time patient feeds. Many hospitals also want to incorporate alerts on maximum number of visitors per patients.

Organizations with unattended lobbies want to operate their visitor registration system in a Kiosk mode so that visitors can self-register.

Many organizations want their employees to pre-register all guests who are scheduled to arrive.

Some organizations want to monitor time and attendance of contractors to be sure they are onsite the hours they claimed.

Some organizations have areas within the facility that have higher security concerns. In these cases they want to limit visitors from entering those areas, or at least determine which visitors can enter.

Other organizations want their visitor registration system to integrate with their access control system to provide security visitor badges that work with their access system.

EasyLobby provides all these features plus many others. To find out more, register for a free, no-obligation online web conference.
