Here are three reasons you should put that ID system to use for your visitor badges.
1. Easily Keep Detailed Visitor Record
ID badge creation software can be used to keep detailed electronic records of who visited and when they were there. Use custom fields to identify the company they are from, date & time of arrival, and who they are visiting. You can also create different templates for each kind of visitor.
2. Create a Highly Unique Experience
Not only can you create a badge that is unique to your organization, but it elevates the visitor’s experience as well. Including their information on a printed ID badge clearly identifies them and that they belong in your building. It makes them feel important while also letting your employees know they belong.
3. Improved Safety
Having measures like this in place will deter unwanted visitors and behavior. For an added measure of safety, print the visitor’s photo on their badge. This may be particularly important for frequent visitors like vendors and contractors who can get multiple uses out of a badge that is specific to them.
This may sound like it will take too much time but if you have the ID template(s) set up a head of time, it’s just a matter of inputting basic information into the database and hitting print. All of this can easily happen while the visitor happily waits in the lobby for their respective party to collect them.
