Visitor Management Software Comparison

Visitor authentication and management systems enhance the safety and security of your organization. Today’s heightened interest in security and health has resulted in the need for visitor authentication. With the addition of access control panels and kiosks, you can provide temperature monitoring and protective mask detection.

There are three new visitor management software packages that support corporations, commercial properties, and education.

Select from the Following Visitor Management Versions:

All these visitor management software systems allow you to issue a QR code, an authentication key sent to the guest’s mobile device, and a live photo captured at every visit to assure visitor validity.

What is Visitor Authentication and Management

These visitor management systems not only provide tracking of visitors they also provide visitor authentication and health monitoring. They can include access control panels that provide facial recognition, temperature monitoring, and mask detection to keep your organization safe.

These new visitor management systems allow you to send invitations to meetings. They also can sign in a walk-in visitor. The software is available for on-site or cloud applications.

Scheduling Visitors

Hosts have the luxury of planning by sending visitors a unique QR code via text and/or email. This provides advanced registration for their appointment. When the guest arrives, they just present their QR code and their authentication key along with capturing a live photo, and they are digitally logged into the premises.

Blacklisting

Whether it be a school or a commercial facility, you can blacklist anyone to deter unwanted visitors from gaining access.

Emergency Notifications

When unexpected situations arise, TirSoftVAMS has your back with emergency notifications. You can customize who receives the notification and what the message says. And if the front desk does not have the time to type a message, there is an SOS button to alert the right people to assist in the situation.

Health Questionnaire

The visitor management control system incorporates a health questionnaire that automates the health check process for visitors.

Reports

Why Use Visitor Management Software

Visitor management helps you provide a secure environment. It has become more critical in today’s world. Now more than ever, it is essential to find the best way to protect our organizations from both physical intrusions and disease.

The visitor management systems have evolved from the writing pad with people signing in. Now the latest digital systems can do many more things such as verifying people who visit, pre-registering them, and checking their temperature.

These systems can use a person’s license to assure that a person is not on any government watch lists or to provide a way of controlling people that are on a blacklist.

Visitor Management in Schools

In schools, we monitor who enters the building, and if they are healthy. Schools can also find comfort in blacklisting specific people in the student database to avoid custodial mistakes with student pickups, therefore, avoiding fines or even lawsuits.

Visitor Management in Corporations

In large organizations, the software offers continuous communication between the visitor and the host, so both parties receive an email and or a text message to inform them when the appointment is set and when the visitor has checked in to see the host. The host even has the option to send out invitations so that they can approve and deny/ revise proposed appointments.
