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:
Visitor Management for the Corporation
TVIPTirSoft-VAMS2INC
This software is designed for a single site. Hosts can use the driver’s license scanning feature to ensure identity. Active Directory makes it easier to integrate into your computer system. This feature-rich software is an excellent resource for organizations that are interested in safety and security.
Visitor Management for Commercial Properties
TVIPTirSoft-VAMSCommercial
This software supports locations where many organizations occupy the same building. The software supports the shared lobby welcome area. The database allows the central concierge to manage visitors to multiple organizations in the building.
Visitor Management for Education
TVIPTirSoft-VAMSEducation
This software is designed for educational organizations. Visitor management in education provides essential functions that keep the school safer—blacklisting specific people in the student database avoids custodial mistakes with student pickups. It prevents fines or even lawsuits.
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
TirSoft-VAMS allows you to run extensive reports from students to contractors to visitors. The reports can be exported in a CSV format or excel- whichever fits your needs!

How the Visitor Management System Works

Walk-in Visitor Workflow

- Walk-in visitor scans the QR code prominently placed near the Access Control device such as the TVIP-VisitorBio kiosk device.
- This opens a visitor registration page on the browser of visitor’s mobile phone
- Host approves the visit
- The visitor receives the appointment confirmation with a link to a new QR code via text message/email to be scanned on the access control device
- This QR code scan on the access control device gets the scan for temperature and mask compliances done
- Successful scan checks the visitor successfully in the premises
Scheduled Visitor Workflow

- The host creates an appointment for their visitors
- The visitor receives the appointment confirmation with a link to the QR code
- The visitor receives the appointment confirmation with a link to the QR code
- Visitor scans the QR code on the access control device, gets the scan for temperature and mask compliances done
- Successful scan checks the visitor successfully in the premises
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.

Compatible with TVIP-VisitorBio Kiosk
The visitor management software is compatible with several access control panels that provide visitor verification and control door access. For example, the TVIP-VisitorBio Kiosk is a high-performance face recognition reader that includes body temperature and mask detection.
This multi-purpose touchless Kiosk is designed for visitor management applications. It consists of a 13-inch touchscreen designed to provide users touchless check-in and body temperature verification.
