JewelGate is an intelligent Visitor Management System for the modern front desk.

How many visitors are in your office right now? How many did you have yesterday? What about on August 27, 2016?

You probably struggled to answer at least that last question, if not the one before. And if you could answer them at all, you likely had to pull out the binder that holds your visitor sign-in sheets or find the old Excel spreadsheet in your shared drive and manually count the entries.

While you’ve got that binder or spreadsheet open, here are a few more questions for you:

• How many of the names can you actually read or were typed incorrectly?
• How many visitors don’t have a time noted as to when they arrived?
• Who forgot to sign out? (Or are they still hiding somewhere in the office?)
• Was the sign-in or sign-out time that was recorded accurately?
• Do you know which employee each visitor met with?

These simple scenarios take place every day in offices worldwide. And they illustrate the need for visitor management. In particular, they show why you need a digital check-in system, known as a visitor management system.
