Keeping our Schools Safe with Raptor Visitor Management System
Raptor visitor management software is most impactful as it is used daily throughout our school district in more than 200 schools and offices. The system is very easy to use and helps us to ensure the safety of our more than 130,000 students and approximately 20,000 employees. I have been especially pleased with the customer service and technical support. With so many Raptor users in our school district, having Raptor's technical support team provide direct support to our users has been a lifesaver. The tech team at Raptor even has the ability to sign in remotely to computers on our network to assist users unable to resolve their issues by following verbal instructions by phone. This allows them to resolve 99% of all tech problems reported within minutes. They have also been able to respond to our needs by customizing features and functionality that I'm sure have been a benefit to all Raptor customers.
CONSHonestly, I can't think of any features I don't like.

Raptor Visitor Management System Helped Make Our Schools Safer
Support has been excellent. It has been a definite additional safety measure for all of our schools.
PROSThe Raptor Visitor Management System has helped make our schools safer and has provided us with a common accountability for all visitors in our schools. During emergency situations we only had a manual sign in to account for visitors which was usually not grabbed when staff evacuated. The Raptor system allows us to now have an accurate accounting of all people in the school. The ability to print a common visitor pass district-wide and for the visitors to be tracked commonly by each school is also an added benefit. Of course the ability to check each visitor against the national child abuse data base is a given for us!
CONSIt was just an internal training and change of how we now do things that had a few stumbles but not the program.
Reason for choosing Raptor Visitor Management
Easier use, better national database used by Raptor and costs.

Satisfied East Texas Admin
I setup the first system with our High School and everybody was so impressed that money began getting allotted for use at all campuses and we now have a Security administrator that i work closely with to keep us up to date.
PROSEase of use and versatility. I really like the way it is changing and adding based on the needs of the time.
CONSKiosks: setup and configs could be better documented for the first-time user. and the stand-alone devices are not "manageable" in the sense that you might be able to manage a Windows PC.

Could be easier
I wish it would automatically sign out users at the end of the work day.
PROSI use Raptor to sign in for work daily. It is probably helpful to management to see who is in the building, assuming they sign out when leaving.
CONSSince COVID, it has become very tedious to answer individual questions every day. I would think it a better use of time to have the option to mark all symptoms/questions 'no' with one click.

Great way to securely check in visitors.
Overall good check in system for a school district.
PROSOnce set up it was easy for visitors to check in with their ids. It provided a better security in our school settings.
CONSThere were times the card readers would do down, usually had to be unplugged and restarted and it was fine after that.

Super Easy to Use
We love Raptor. It is easy to use and set up! It was just what we needed to screen and manage visitors.
PROSI love that Raptor does exactly what it says it is going to do. It was super easy to talk to someone at the company and demo the product. The purchase was smooth and the customer support was phenomenal. The first couple of years, customer support was always available to help and trouble shoot. Most of the trouble shooting was just us learning how to use it. But when I say that customer service was great - they were so patient and kind. We haven't had to call customer service in a long time. All of our staff is trained and very comfortable using the software. Even the tech part is easy; scanning, printing, and logging visitors as well as loading labels and software set up. Raptor is a great product.
CONSI don't have any cons. The district is very happy with the product.

It offered exactly what we were looking for!

The Raptor In Use
I love, love love the Raptor Visitor Management system because it makes our jobs easier, faster, and safer for us to sign in/out students, parents and visitors. If there is a red flag on someone's photo it gives us an instant heads up to check that particular person out and make sure we are not releasing any student to adults that should not have them. I really enjoy working with the Raptor system.
PROSI like most about the software is that it is easy to follow and learn what to do using the raptor system.
CONSWhat I like least is the fact that when we sign out a student for the day for doctor's appointments, family emergencies, etc, we often times don't remember to ask the parent for their ID because we are signing out a student, and the parent leaves with the student and we don't have the information on the parent (ID information) because it is at the very end of the sign out and we have already released the student to the parent.

Great Visitor Management Tool
Ability to keep historical record of all visitors/contractors allows follow up as to when they were in the facility and why. Pre-approved volunteer database allows operator to know who and who is not allowed into facility as a volunteer.
PROSEase of use for employees. Ability to pull historical data on visitors by date / location / individual. Use of the volunteer tab allows operator to see individuals that have been pre-approved as volunteers. Ability to update visitors pictures as their ID picture changes.
CONSUnable to update contractor picture without creating new profile.

End User
With the 'Raptor Visitor Management' it allows us to determine if an individual should be allowed on premise based on background check that would prevent him/her from being allowed into a public library/school library system.
PROSIt is a very simple straight forward operation that allows you to either scan or manually enter persons into the system. Additionally, it allows you to enter the destination of person on the badge itself so that employees know where the person is going and if they are lost the easy to assist them where they need to be and how to get there or even simply escort them.
CONSOccasionally the system is a little so between scan and printing badge/visitor passes.

PROSThis would be a great resource for any company.
CONSToo many calls to customer service for refreshing/restarting/repairing. Too difficult to maintain!!!!!!

Sistema de gestión de visitantes ofrece una serie de caracterÃsticas que simplifican el proceso de r
Una de las principales ventajas de Raptor es su capacidad para prevenir la entrada de visitantes no autorizados. Al llegar, los visitantes deben presentar un documento de identificación, que es escaneado y cotejado con una base de datos de delincuentes sexuales registrados. Si se encuentra una coincidencia, se envÃa una alerta al personal designado para que tome la acción correspondiente. Esta función, por sà sola, convierte a Raptor en una herramienta valiosa para las escuelas y otras organizaciones que priorizan la seguridad.Otra caracterÃstica clave de Raptor es la capacidad para hacer seguimiento de la actividad de los visitantes. El sistema puede generar informes que muestran quién se ha registrado y cuándo, asà como el motivo de su visita. Esta información puede ser utilizada para mejorar la eficiencia operativa e identificar posibles problemas de seguridad.Raptor es un sistema relativamente simple e intuitivo de usar. Los visitantes pueden registrarse en un quiosco de autoservicio que los guÃa paso a paso por el proceso. Los miembros del personal también pueden usar el sistema para pre-registrar visitantes, lo que puede ayudar a acelerar el proceso de registro.
CONShay algunas posibles desventajas al usar Raptor. Una es que requiere una inversión inicial en hardware y software, lo que puede ser un obstáculo para algunas organizaciones más pequeñas que operan con un presupuesto limitado. Además, algunos usuarios han notado que el sistema puede ser lento para cargar o puede tener fallas ocasionales que pueden afectar el rendimiento.

Raptor - Effective Way to Help School Safety!
Raptor is highly effective in keeping schools safe, and especially offering parents and staff peace of mind, very needed in this modern day. A great investment for any school!
PROSRaptor is fast and effective. Visitors bring their IDs, which our staff will scan, and then get a badge for their visit. Potential criminal histories pop up immediately with a text alert to key staff, like security and administration, allowing us to respond extremely quickly if needed. More importantly, this gives parents and staff a great peace of mind for their school!
CONSThere isn't anything we have found that doesn't work or has been frustrating about Raptor. We've relied on it now for years and it's been a trustworthy tool!

Amazing safety program for education!
This is great for teachers and administrators to know that students are safe 100 percent of the school day.
PROSI love the ability to easily track the visitors in the building for the safety of students. Also, tracking students during a safety drill is a key component of why educators should all use this app withing their schools!
CONSThe app is wonderful. The management between features within the app could be a bit smoother.

Raptor works great for school security visitor system
Works great! So much better than our old system.
PROSEasy to use Quick scanning - picture shows up from drivers license Can read all licenses, even out of state
CONSIt would be helpful if there was a light or some kind of notification to let the user know when the visitor's license has been inserted so you don't have to ask the visitor.
