eVisitor Visitor Management Software; building security

What is eVisitor?
eVisitor is a cloud-based Visitor Management System that is robust yet easy to use, flexible, and affordable.

Installation and basic training typically takes less than 30 minutes. Installation, training, and support is provided remotely.

How secure is eVisitor?

  • eVisitor is housed at one of the largest data warehouses in the world.
  • eVisitor uses 256-bit SSL data encryption technology to move data through the internet. This is the same technology as online banking systems.
  • We store as little personal information as possible in eVisitor. For example:
    • The driver’s license number is encrypted with an irreversible encryption. Not even we can un-encrypt it.
    • There are no credit card numbers or other broadly-valuable information stored in the system.

Will eVisitor read a driver’s license?

  • Yes, eVisitor will read your visitor’s information from a driver’s license using one our Driver’s License Readers. Click here for ID scanners.

Will eVisitor show a picture of my visitor?
Yes, eVisitor can read a picture from a driver’s license or take a current picture from a camera. Reading the picture from a driver’s license is usually a lower-quality picture.

Will eVisitor print a visitor badge?
Yes, we have a large variety of badges for eVisitor. See your visitor badge choices.

Will eVisitor remember a returning visitor?
Yes, eVisitor will remember a visitor’s Name, Company, Photo and Alert status.

Can I have more than one computer running eVisitor?
Yes, eVisitor supports multiple terminals. You may have as many terminals as you want (more info). They can be located anywhere (next to each other, or in another state). Each sign-in or sign-out terminal requires a software license. You may add eVisitor to a back-office terminal for no additional charge if it is used for reporting and pre-registration only.

What can I customize in eVisitor?

  • Logo
  • Visitor Categories
  • Hosts (The “Visiting” list)
  • Badge layout including photo or no-photo.
  • Visitor alerts (flags), Visitor alert notes.

Can I pre-register a visitor?
Yes, the eVisitor attendant can pre-register a visitor into the system for a future visit. Employees can email the eVisitor attendant with pre-registration requests. You can pre-print the badges and just scan the visitor in when they arrive.

What kind of reports can I get?
eVisitor provides flexible reporting options. The four basic report layouts which can be filtered for a specific date-range include:

  • Visitors Log – of all visitors or a single type of visitor.

The Red Flag feature has been improved! Now you can set your system to not print a badge for any visitor record that has been previously marked with a Red Flag. The attendant will be prompted to redirect the visitor according to your security protocol.

Special New Feature: Red Flag, No Badge

Flag alertsIt’s easy and free to activate this feature. Simply call us and ask for “Red Flag, No Badge” to be turned on. Once it’s on, the above pop-up will come up when a red flagged visitor comes back. No badge will print and the attendant will need to follow the facility’s policy for handling red flagged visitors.

The flags and notes only show to the desk attendant, not the visitor. 

Please contact eVisitor Support with any questions on how to use Flags in your system.
