Happy customer and guests
We replaced out paper based visitor register with VisitUs Reception over 12 months ago and haven't looked back. we have had a couple of minor issues that we reported to support and they were quickly addressed and updates were issued to resolve the problems. we get comments from clients daily asking what we are using as it works so well and looks professional.
PROSSimple to setup and get started. easy to use for both administrators and guests. the interface is able to be customised to your own preferences including images, custom PDF for non disclosure and what data you need want to collect about the guest. Ability to import from AD makes initial setup much simpler.
CONSNothing, the product achieves exactly what we are after with minimal administration once it has been setup

VisitUs Reception Review
Usability of Guests sign in. Works almost flawlessly. Customer Support. Special call out to Alister for continuously supporting and updating us on issues and key feature releases.
CONSHosts implementation was a bit buggy resulting in some inconsistencies (fixed now)
Reason for choosing VisitUs Reception
Had a better balance for features vs cost effectiveness. Also was perfectly scaled to what we needed as a pose to other software which bundled features we'd never use.

7 Months in it is going very well
They have been fantastic with any issue or problem and contact is really quick for support.
PROSThe ease of using this software and giving us the edge with technology without the hassle of too much information needed. Students are emailed their QR code after signing in the first time and can easily sign in an out during the week they are with us.
CONSThere are a few steps we would like to take out of the iPad sign in process but are unable to from our end.
Reason for choosing VisitUs Reception
We looked at other programs, but found VisitUs Reception to be the best value for money giving us the information we need to keep a report on who and when people are in the building.

Very happy with it--GREAT VALUE!
We love it!
PROSThis program was the best we've found in terms of customization within our budget! We love printing the badges with the QR code. Once all of our members register, it will make signing in very fast and easy. VisitUs allowed us to ask many of the sign-in questions we needed to, keeps track of them, and updates the backoffice app in real time as people sign in.
CONSI'd like to have more customizable fields--we couldn't ask all of the sign in questions that we would have liked, but we were able to get most of them.
Reason for choosing VisitUs Reception
customization, price, customer service, fits our needs
Reasons for switching to VisitUs Reception
Sine didn't provide real time updates for some of our sensitive sign-in questions, like whether someone signed the photo-release.

Great system! Easy to Setup & Use.
Our overall experience with VisitUs Reception has been great! the staff located in Sydney were very responsive and took time out to understand our business needs. They walked us through setting up the system and were always available to answer any of our queries. They are a great team to deal with! Our aim was to remove the dependency of a staff member sitting in Reception, which VisitUs Reception has surely done. Our part-time receptionist is now free to move around the office and is assisting various business units with administration work and the likes.
PROSVery easy to setup and maintain. A set and forget type system, which works great for a medium sized office like ours where we are short on staff. It is very user friendly and met all of our requirements, self-service sign in/out, notifying Hosts via email and SMS, online emergency evacuation lists. With a very reasonable price tag for what it offers!
CONSWe’ve used it for about a year now and can’t see anything I dislike about it.
Reason for choosing VisitUs Reception
Functionality. Ease of use. Ease of setting up. Price.
Reasons for switching to VisitUs Reception
We went from a manual system to a self-serve system. As we needed to remove the reliance on having a person sit in reception full-time.

Safe, Secure, Efficient Reception Tool
Our financial firm is easily able to log both clients and building maintenance, saving us the hassle of wasting time throughout our day to deal with visitor check-in issues.
PROSHelps create so many efficiencies for our company and helps us cut down costs. It saves us time during our days by not having to have someone away from their desk dealing with visitors. It also helps create a better client experience with updated technology and a more streamlined process.
CONSWe've had the glitch here and there, but there are not many other complaints to speak of. The software does exactly what we need it to do.

VisitUs for Corporate HQ
Our experience was very good with the VisitUs product & team. They were always available during the adoption to make sure the experience went as smooth as possible. This is a great product to help move your company into a new eco-friendlier alternative to reception registration.
PROSIt has allowed us to take a greener approach to our visitor registration at HQ by eliminating the need to use paper. We were also able to customize the application so that it fits what we require visitors to provide such as photo, who you are here to see, a signature for our visitor release form, and the SOS emergency feature.
CONSIt would not be fair to list cons because all of the initial negatives we had were worked out with the VisitUs customer care team. Everything ended up getting fixed or adjusted for us so there were no outstanding "Cons".

VisitUs Review
We are now able to with a click of the mouse see who is on site, visiting whom for what purpose. we are now even looking at using this same software for our deliveries to site. and rolling this out to multiple locations.
PROSWhen visiting a company we came across this software, 2 weeks later we installed this same software in our company premises and have not looked back. the ability to contact visitors whilst on site via email or sms, is very helpful in our line of work. The feedback we are receiving from staff and visitors alike is very positive and encouraging. The ease of use for the which it operates for the end user. and ability to fill in reports for departments is also excellent.
CONSSorting out the glitches initially was a little troublesome

Enjoyed full experience with VisitUs Reception
The use of an iPad sign in screen within the multiple locations of the company has made it easier to both inform employees when their visitor arrives, but also track visitors stays on an online platform instead of paper sign in sheets means that it's much easier to know when customers/visitors have been at which premises when. Originally I found the AD integration application to not work, by going through customer service I quickly obtained the powershell script and discovered the problem our company was personally having and fixed the script, informing VisitUs what occurred. Soon after, advertising of AD integration was removed from their website, as I was informed they were going to further expand the integration and fixed the problems i found. All of this was done within a few days of my original complaint, in a very timely manner which I greatly appreciated.
PROSVery Simple to understand online portal. Application is well laid out, and looks very professional whilst offering great customisability to make the application suit the company brand. Good integration with AD , continually being improved The ability to text employees when their visitor arrives Very helpful customer service, making the whole testing of the service extremely easy
CONSThe application for phones typically did not work as well as the text and email integration, and felt slightly more "juttery" in operation, although I'm sure is being improved with updates The AD integration was fiddly to set up at the time, through use of a powershell script, however this is apparently soon being updated to a more user friendly application

Reasons for switching to VisitUs Reception
We wanted to have fast printing of badges since our old printers were very slow. Although we wanted colour, we realised that monchrome printing is considerably faster to print. Although we have had to compromise on the quality, our overall visitor experience is greatly improved with this product.

Visitus Reception Review
Visitors are impressed by the technology. It paints our company in a good light.
CONSSometimes it does not work. I have been in communication with the customer executive, but we are not always able to resolve issues. Issues primarily include visitors receiving the following message: "There was a problem. Please sign in again." This usually happens at least once a day and is quite frustrating. When the system works I am impressed by it, but the problem is that it isn't reliable.

Its a clean and easy to use piece of software. Great value and excellent support backup.
This has helped keep a handle on the number of clients/visitors we have to our company site. It is useful to be able to get daily, weekly or monthly reports on who has visited which part of the company, how many times etc. It releases a member of staff from having to log people in and as it sends both e mail confirmation to the person being visited as well as the visitor in advance, as well as Apple Wallet reminders, we have a better system for making our clients feel more important and our company be more innovative and professional.
PROSEasy set up, very cost effective and its very intuitive. It gives my company a very professional appearance to all visiting customers. We have just had an update which has helped to improve the speed of label printing . . a small but helpful change
CONSHad a few bugs within the first week which slowed down the printer link to the ipad. Photo on labels needed to be altered, but this was done remotely by the support team.

Fantastic software
we now have a deskless reception, freeing up the space for us to set up a meeting pod; guests buzz in, sign in & can make a coffee or sit in the pod until their meeting starts
PROSwe love this software, the best feature is that it emails the person being visited so that they can come down to meet their guest as soon as they sign in, so the guest is not kept waiting for someone to find who they have come to see. it is so easy to use & set up too.
CONSnothing, it does what it says on the tin, very efficiently.
