No incentive was offered We do not have a permament receptionist at the factory. This job was givin to the customer service team who doen't have the time nor the joy to do it all the time... especially in a pendemic situation. The Receptionist software allowed us to automate the visitors and employees management experience. We no longer use the traditional paper log visible to everyone who visit the factory. We also increassed the security and health of our visitors and employees by using the touchless login. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros We named our software LISA (Log In System Autonomous). What I like about this software is the simplicity to configure it to my specific needs despite it's limitations when it comes to foreign languages and multiple work shifts. Our factory is in the Fench province of Quebec CANADA. Once you figure out what it can and cannot do, you work around it and it does the job. #### Cons The foreign language option is limited.. meaning you have to personally sellect and translate all the text (painful). The other thing missing is the ablility for the visitor to phone call the person you want to meet with via The Receptionist... you need to use a third party application and if you aren't familiar with it yet... you will need the help of their customer support. That been said, when it works it is great and LISA The Receptionist comes to life. #### Reasons for choosing The Receptionist for iPad I choose The Recptionist because it was simple to use and to configure during the trial period. What really signed me on was their customer service... they called it "Radical Customer Service" and let me tell you it is. If you need help... no matter what someone will get in touch with you before you hang-up. They are that good and it makes a big difference when you are in another Country and need help right away. I strongly recommend The Receptionist to anyone who's looking to automate their visitors and employees management experience. --- ### Great platform for small or large business - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Gabriela B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Insurance - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: October 2021 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered One of the easiest platforms on the market, especially for a small business that is just getting familiar with implementing a visitor management system. The staff are very helpful and accommodated our needs as much as possible. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The setup layout is straightforward and easy to figure out and manage. #### Cons More customization for the button types. Wish we had the option to stop a visitor from registering upon check in and receive an instant notification if someone selected yes to a Covid-19 screening questions. #### Reasons for choosing The Receptionist for iPad Platform is easy to figure out (especially for those that are not tech savvy), the price point is unbeatable and the staff are very helpful and great with following up. They also have a great demo experience. --- ### Gets The Job Done - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Brian P. - Industry: Machinery - Company size: 5001-10000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. We wanted to do away with receptionists at our Corporate office, so we replaced that functionality with the iPad receptionist app. It's worked reliably for us, for the most part. The updates are highly manual, but that's usually not an issue. It took a few months for everyone in the office to get used to it, but here we are two years later still using it. Will probably replace this solution with a custom MS PowerApp at some point. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros The portal interface can be mastered in a couple hours. There really isn't much investment needed to learn everything about the product and get your account up and running. Great customer service. #### Cons The actual options of this application are minimal. I've found myself on more than one occasion "hacking" together a solution based on the options available. --- ### IT works for us! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jessica P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Mental Health Care - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: November 2021 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered The Receptionist notifies us via email when a client has arrived. It eliminates clutter in the hallways and having to run back forth to the lobby to see if someone has arrived. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros This software is easily customizable to your practice and very easy to use. It is definitely less expensive than other products on the market. #### Cons There are plenty of features on this software that I feel we may be paying for that are never used. I'd love if we had the option to drop price if not using some of these features. #### Reasons for switching to The Receptionist for iPad SwipedON was twice the price to add a second location. --- ### Nice Visitor Tracking Application - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jimmy K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Internet - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros This application is very light and can be installed easily. It is a very simple application using which we can track visitors and also check who is expected to visit on a particular day #### Cons There are no cons. This is a very small application and everything has be thought of #### Vendor response Hi Jimmy, Thanks so much for posting a review about The Receptionist for iPad! I am so happy to hear that the application is working for you and Chegg Inc! Please don't hesitate to reach out to me personally if there is anything I can do for you. Sincerely, Andy Alsop, President andy@thereceptionist.com Replied October 2018 --- ### Best "remote" receptionist there is! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Ashante M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Warehousing - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: December 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Its been fun and easy to use for both our clients and myself. We don't have a receptionist yet, because our office isn't set up that way. However, this is great to use because our clients can sort of help themselves until someone comes out to assist them. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I love that we can make this extremely customizable so that the clients feel like they're truly getting taken care of and not just another number. The check in process is super important because that's like a first impression, so I love how we can customize it to certain visitors. #### Cons Pricing is a bit off to me. I think we wish there was the ability to have a Basic package for employee contacts over 24. We have about 30 or so, but don't need everything that Premium offers. Premium is the next level up in order to include over 24 ppl. #### Vendor response Ashante, we're so grateful you took the time to leave us a review. We all want to make a great first impression, and it's wonderful to hear that we can help your team do so. Thank you so much for being a customer! -Kayla Hollenbaugh, Digital Campaigns Manager Replied May 2020 --- ### The Receptionist - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Ryan C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Telecommunications - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: August 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I love this product. Super simple to set up, customize, change/update, and manage. A real great 'set it and forget it' kind of product. #### Cons While i'm not 100% sure it has anything to do with the app, sometimes when a guest is typing in their name the keyboard goes completely crazy and makes it difficult. While not really a 'con' per se, but a feature request would be to have it make a phone call, announcement over a PA or maybe a prerecorded message, or something similar. Maybe relay it through Twilio or something similar? #### Vendor response Hi Ryan! Thanks for leaving this amazing review! I am stoked that you're enjoying it so much. Regarding your question about connecting to Twilio to make a PA call, you can do this using our Zapier integration! Chat with our support team on our website if you'd like help setting this up! Michael Ashford Director of Marketing Replied May 2020 --- ### Easy to Set-up and Easy to Update - Perfrect for waht we needed! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Robert G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Internet - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used unspecified for less than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2015 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered We've been using the iPad receptionist (the receptionist in a box set-up) for over a year now. It was supper easy to set-up and has been very easy to update and add to. It's perfect for our sometimes unmanned lobby! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 #### Pros Ease of set-up Price Functions --- ### The Receptionist has been a game changer for our company - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Zach M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Product usage: Used other for less than 12 months - Reviewed: February 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros We like most that it is able to keep a directory of all of our employees and then when a visitor comes in it sends them a text message that they are here. #### Cons The app has crashed a few times but other than that we have not had many issues with the software itself. #### Vendor response Hi Zach, Thanks so much for posting a review about The Receptionist for iPad! I am so glad that our software is working well for you. Have you been in contact with our support team about the app crashing? While that is not something we've heard from other customers I would recommend downloading the latest version of the app to see if that solves the problem. Please feel free to reach out to me personally if that continues. Thanks for being a member of The Receptionist team! Sincerely, Andy Alsop, President andy@thereceptionist.com Replied February 2018 --- ### Easy to set up, does exactly what I need - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Chris B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Product usage: Used unspecified for less than 12 months - Reviewed: July 2015 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Couldn't be easier to set up and use. We're a small company, need to minimize the distraction of people showing up to meet with one of us. This app makes it extremely easy to do that, and it's a really nice experience for visitors. I've also used it as a visitor at a couple of other places I frequently meet at in Denver - it's great! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 #### Pros Set it up in minutes. Much cheaper than having an actual receptionist! --- Showing 1 - 10 of 329 Reviews [See All Reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/visitor-management/the-receptionist-for-ipad-profile/reviews/) ## The Receptionist for iPad Popular Comparisons [Archie vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/compare/29773-the-receptionist-for-ipad/vs/501022-Archie/)[Swiftlane vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/visitor-management/swiftlane-profile/vs/the-receptionist-for-ipad/)[Vizito vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/visitor-management/the-receptionist-for-ipad-profile/vs/vizito/)[Mygate vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/compare/29773-the-receptionist-for-ipad/vs/489522-MyGate/)[Visitly vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/visitor-management/the-receptionist-for-ipad-profile/vs/visitly/)[App Registro Visitatori vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/visitor-management/app-registro-visitatori-profile/vs/the-receptionist-for-ipad/)[Sign In Solutions vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/visitor-management/the-receptionist-for-ipad-profile/vs/traction-guest/)[Greetly vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/salon/greetly-profile/vs/the-receptionist-for-ipad/)[Sign In App vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/visitor-management/sign-in-app-profile/vs/the-receptionist-for-ipad/)[Qminder vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/medical/qminder-profile/vs/the-receptionist-for-ipad/)[B-Line vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/property/b-line-profile/vs/the-receptionist-for-ipad/)[Envoy vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/meeting-room/envoy-profile/vs/the-receptionist-for-ipad/)[Raptor VisitorSafe vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/visitor-management/raptor-visitor-management-profile/vs/the-receptionist-for-ipad/)[Lobbytrack vs The Receptionist for iPad](https://www.softwareadvice.com/visitor-management/lobby-track-profile/vs/the-receptionist-for-ipad/) [Compare All Alternatives](https://www.softwareadvice.com/visitor-management/the-receptionist-for-ipad-profile/alternatives/) ## See what companies are saying about Software Advice
