eVisitor Software

eVisitor Software is a visitor management system from Threshold Security, designed to automate visitor check-in and badge production for organisations that receive guests at reception areas. Many businesses still rely on paper sign-in books, which are slow, difficult to read, provide little security and expose previous visitors' details to anyone who looks at the page. Reception staff must also spend time writing or printing badges manually, creating queues at busy periods. eVisitor addresses these issues by enabling visitors to check themselves in using a self-service kiosk or workstation, after which a badge is printed for collection from the front desk. This approach speeds up arrivals, reduces the workload on reception personnel and creates an accurate electronic record of who is on site at any time, which is valuable for security, compliance and emergency situations.

Key features include self-registration screens where visitors enter their details and select the person they are visiting, capture of visitor photographs, and printing of personalised badges with names, photos, dates and host information. Hosts can be notified by email when their visitors arrive, and pre-registration allows expected guests to be entered in advance for faster processing. Returning visitors can be recognised to avoid repeated data entry, and watch lists help staff identify individuals who should not be admitted. Reporting functions provide lists of visitors on site and historical logs for audits and evacuations. The software can scan identification documents and business cards in suitable configurations and can be customised with company branding and site-specific fields. eVisitor is installed on-premise on Windows computers and is aimed at corporate offices, schools, healthcare facilities, government buildings, manufacturing plants and other organisations seeking to modernise reception security. Pricing starts from around USD 950; there is no free trial and no free version.
