| Buyer fit / positioning | Positioned for customers who want to overlay visitor and yard workflows onto existing IT and to use German-hosted managed operations. | Positioned for customers who need provable, auditable gate control and continuous compliance enforcement across multi-site, high‑risk operations. | If your primary concern is managed hosting, German data residency and reducing in‑house operational burden, VISIT is more relevant. If your primary concern is producing tamper‑evident compliance trails, automated eligibility enforcement and evidence exports, T |

| Deployment & hosting options | Vendor documents Full Managed Hosting and on‑premise operational service with German servers, SLAs, backups and 2nd‑level support. | Deployment posture emphasises enterprise rollouts but hosting region, data‑residency and SLA specifics are not published on the site. | VISIT offers a clearer managed hosting proposition with German server commitment; TouchPoint requires direct clarification on hosting location and operational SLAs. |
|---|
| Hardware / kiosk guidance | No explicit on‑page guidance about kiosk hardware, supported onsite devices or recommended terminals. | Explicitly supports optional kiosks and gate hardware integration as part of a gate-register model. | Buyers who must standardise on vendor‑recommended kiosks or gate hardware will find explicit kiosk support in TouchPoint; VISIT will require the buyer to enquire about recommended hardware support. |
|---|
| Visitor journey & workflows | Offers visitor, supplier and Fremdfirmen workflows and promotes a 'Digital Fluid' overlay approach to fit existing IT flows; specific UI/mobile/kiosk clients are not documented. | Specifies visitor management features including ID verification, host pre‑approval, safety induction, zone restriction, duration tracking and exit confirmation, with audit/export capabilities. | TouchPoint publishes more detailed visitor control steps and auditable exits; VISIT emphasises flexible overlay integration but requires clarification on client interfaces and exact workflow depth. |
|---|
| Contractor management | Pages indicate support for suppliers and Fremdfirmen (third‑party) workflows but lack detailed statements on expiry tracking, daily eligibility or automatic blocking. | Documents contractor lifecycle features: document expiry tracking, automatic blocking on lapse, daily eligibility checks and PPE/medical/induction status tracking. | If you need automated expiry/enforcement and daily eligibility for contractors, TouchPoint describes this behavior; VISIT signals contractor workflows but buyers should confirm enforcement and expiry automation. |
|---|
| Evacuation / muster capability | Evacuation, emergency muster and live‑count features are not described on the public pages and need inquiry. | Publishes evacuation support including live headcount by zone and muster report generation. | TouchPoint explicitly supports muster/headcount exports for emergencies; VISIT buyers needing muster must ask the vendor for specifics. |
|---|
| Access control & enforcement | Integration-focused, marketed to overlay existing IT — access-control integration specifics (APIs/SSO/ACS links) are not published. | Emphasises provable lifecycle (Authorised→Verified→Tracked→Exited→Proven) and enforces zone restrictions and eligibility; integration details still require confirmation. | TouchPoint explicitly frames enforcement and provable state transitions; VISIT promises integration flexibility but buyers should probe the depth of access-control integrations and enforcement behaviors. |
|---|
| Analytics, reporting & evidence | Hosting offering includes monitoring and analysis capability as part of managed operations; site does not emphasise exportable, tamper‑proof compliance evidence. | Emphasises audit‑ready, timestamped logs, exportable gate registers, photo capture and incident trails for compliance evidence. | For compliance audits and tamper‑evident trails, TouchPoint demonstrates explicit reporting focus; VISIT’s reporting emphasis is on operational monitoring via managed hosting and should be validated for audit‑grade exports. |
