Unlocking the Future of Workplace Efficiency: How Visitor Management Systems Are Changing the Game
Contents
Introduction
Whether you’re running a small business or working in a large corporation, it’s crucial to keep track of your visitors. Doing so will help you improve security, monitor productivity, and more. That’s why it’s important to consider implementing a visitor management system in your organization. In this article, we’ll discuss the benefits of having one and how they can help you run an efficient workplace.
Control over your visitors
Visitor management systems give organizations control over their visitors. A visitor management system is used to track, monitor and manage the flow of visitors in a workplace. It helps organizations improve efficiency by providing insight into how much time is being spent at each checkpoint, where bottlenecks are occurring and what improvements can be made to streamline processes.
More visibility into what's going on in your office
Visitor management systems give you more visibility into what’s going on in your office. You can see who is in your building, when they arrived and left, whether or not they’re working or just hanging out at the water cooler. If a meeting room has been booked for an hour but only 20 minutes pass before someone leaves–that’s valuable information!
Visitor management systems also help reduce waste by helping managers better plan their workdays around their schedules. If a manager knows how many people are coming into the office on any given day (and at what time), then he or she can make better choices about when to schedule meetings so that everyone gets enough time to get their work done before heading home for the day
Helps you improve security
Visitor management systems are a critical component of any security strategy. They help you control who has access to your building, and they can also help you reduce the risk of security breaches by restricting access based on time, location and other factors. For example, if someone is working late at night in an office with sensitive data on their computer screen, visitor management software may be able to block that person from leaving their desk until another employee arrives in the morning–or even prevent them from unlocking their workstation at all until then!
Visitor management systems can also ensure that visitors are only granted temporary privileges during specific times or locations; this ensures that they don’t have access to sensitive areas or information while they’re there.
Multiple check-in workflows available
At Neoffice, we’re committed to providing the best possible experience for all of our visitors. That’s why we’ve built a visitor management system that includes multiple check-in workflows, so that you can choose the one that works best for your organization.
Our pre-registered visitors can fill in their details and upload Identity proof via SMS/Email links sent to them by their hosts. Walk-in visitors can submit their documents at front desk. When they arrive, they’ll be greeted by friendly staff who will help them get registered quickly and easily.
Health screening for visitors
Visitor management systems can help companies implement health screening for visitors, which is important for protecting your employees and your business.
While it’s true that most workplace injuries are caused by employees, not guests, it’s also true that the presence of non-employees in a workplace presents certain hazards that need to be addressed. Visitors can be injured onsite through accidents or incidents such as slips, trips and falls; they may also become ill due to exposure to hazardous materials or poor air quality (if you work in an office building with poor ventilation). Visitor management systems allow you to track these risks so you can take steps to reduce them before they cause harm.
By implementing health screenings for visitors who enter your facility regularly or frequently–like contractors working onsite–you’ll be able to better protect yourself from potential liability if something goes wrong during their visit: if someone gets hurt because there was no warning sign posted about the slippery flooring ahead; if someone gets sick after eating lunch at one of your company cafeterias; etcetera!
Auto-alert hosts on visitor's entry
Automatically alerts hosts when visitors arrive:
- On the day of your meeting, an alert will be sent to the host’s phone or computer notifying him/her that a visitor has arrived at the building. The host can then walk over and greet their guest as they enter.
- When a visitor arrives at their desk, they may be asked to sign in using a specialized app on their phone or tablet which will automatically send an alert back to their host’s device so he/she knows who is where in real-time (and also provides proof that you’re who you say).
This feature helps eliminate confusion about where everyone is supposed to go when hosting meetings with clients on-site–it also saves time because no one has to call each other asking “Where are we meeting?”
Simplified check-in for repeat visitors
For many businesses and organizations, visitor management systems are helping to make the process of checking in and managing guests easier than ever before. One feature that can make a big difference is simplified check-in for repeat visitors. With this option, you can set up your system so that guests who have visited before will be able to enter their information once again during subsequent visits; they’ll only need to provide their name and contact information (and possibly photo ID) when they arrive at the property or venue. This reduces friction at both ends: hosts don’t have to spend time manually entering each guest’s data every time they arrive; and since there are fewer steps involved in getting everyone signed up with your VMS platform, it’ll take less time overall for everyone involved!
Customized badges for visitors
Visitor badges are also a great way to customize your workplace. For example, you can add the company logo or create custom visitor badges with the visitor’s name and role. This will help make them feel more welcome and comfortable in your space, while also giving them a sense of pride when they wear their badge around the office.
Visitor management systems allow companies to set up customized visitor badges that best suit their needs as well as their employees’ or clients’. If someone needs access into multiple buildings on campus or at off-site locations, these systems can accommodate this request easily by allowing users to issue multiple types of credentials simultaneously–like digital cards with embedded chips plus key fobs–and then manage them all through one central location on their smartphone app!
Digital records for easy analysis
Digital records are easy to access. They’re also easy to share, search and backup. This means that you can use your visitor management system as a central repository for all of your building’s security data and access it from anywhere in the world at any time. You can even share certain information with specific users or groups of people who need it–like a maintenance engineer who needs access only to the camera footage from their particular section of the building.
Improve working efficiency
Employee efficiency is a big deal. If your employees aren’t working hard, you won’t get the results you want from them. This can be especially true when it comes to visitors on company premises, who may not always be focused on getting things done as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Visitor management systems can help solve this problem by ensuring everyone is working hard for the company’s success by tracking how much time they spend at each location, who they are visiting with (and how often), which areas of the building they spent most of their time in during their visit and more!
We hope this article has shown you how visitor management systems can help your company become more efficient and productive. The best part is that these systems are incredibly easy to use, so there’s no reason not to try them out today!
