EntryLogic FAQs

EntryLogic is a cloud-based visitor management software solution that facilitates the sign-in and sign-out processes for businesses, offices, schools, or any facility that requires visitors to sign in and sign out. The software ensures that all data entered is safely and securely stored and accessible if you need it.

Visitor Management systems are designed to increase the security and safety of your workplace, while improving the efficiency of your lobby operations. Companies can also collect accurate data and track visitor information, which can be used for contact tracing and to meet certain compliance requirements.

When a guest arrives and uses the kiosk to sign in, they have the option to use touchless sign-in by scanning the QR code present on the kiosk. The user will be directed to an URL, where they can follow the provided instructions to complete the sign-in process on their own smartphone.

If enabled, EntryLogic can present and prompt visitors to electronically accept documents of your choosing. Most companies will use this to acquire acknowledgment for several types of documents, including waivers, release forms, non-disclosure agreements (NDA’s), safety documents, and more. The acknowledgments are recorded and saved to each visitor’s profile, which can be renewed during their next visit if you update the document or have set specific time parameters. An email containing the document can also be automatically sent to the visitor upon their acceptance.

Each visitor will receive their own invitation and unique QR code.

If you have contractors that are visiting for a defined period of time or auditors doing fieldwork over several sequential days, you have the ability to set specific parameters for their visit. Their QR code will provide them the required access during their repeating schedule. After the defined time frame lapses, the QR code will no longer be valid.

This QR code can be accessed via an URL on their own smartphone, saved in their photos, or easily added to their Apple or Google Wallets for quick access. This QR code can be presented on the kiosk when they arrive or depart for touchless sign-in or out.
Once an employee is added to the system, they will receive an email notification prompting them to create a password and will provide them with a link to their personal ID badge. The badge image can be saved or added to your Apple or Google Wallet by selecting that option.

Additionally, hosts are unable to send invitations to restricted visitors on the Watchlist.
