As the technology upgrade is at the highest pace in the recent times, every technology is now attached to the word SMART. The days are gone, when only humans were called as smart, now all human gestures are connected with the machines to make technology work SMART for humans.
Visitor management system in earlier days was a security person sitting at the company entrance, noting the details of the entrant. Then it changed to software entry and issuing of card with an identity. Here the person was required to get the entry card signed by the one, whom he is meeting to get his identity and purpose of visit verified. This system was an assurance of the identity of the person. But the things were tedious and actually getting hectic, when some emergency visit is planned and the main work was getting delayed.
To resolve the tedious functionality of entering a business venue, biometric fingerprint scanner is introduced along with webcams, barcode scanner, customized printers. The overall system has made Visitor management system, real SMART.
The Biometric fingerprint scanner takes an impression of the fingerprint of the visitor and feeds it in the system against the details of the person along with his or her image. This is a one time job. Once this data is entered, every time whenever the same visitor arrives, he just needs to get his fingerprint image scanned and data against his image will pop up and makes it easier and faster to enter the premises.
The barcode reader is required, when the visitor exits the premises. Barcode reader reads the code from the card and marks the exit time of the visitor in the system.
Along with a fingerprint scanner and barcode reader (QR code reader) id scanning function is also ready to make it smarter. It works very well with all cards having barcode or QR code reader.
The main benefit of fingerprint scanner in visitor management system software is reduction of lots of manual work in case same people are repeatedly entering the premises, in data entry. It ensures each and every data is rightly filled. If your business is having daily visitor of 50 – 100 then it is mandatory to have a visitor management system with such smart features to ensure smooth operations.
