Key differences

FactorVISITVisitUsBuyer meaning
Deployment & hostingASTRUM IT’s VISIT is positioned with managed hosting, on‑premise options and German server operation; vendor emphasises Full Managed Hosting and operational support.VisitUs is cloud‑first with selectable hosting regions (AU/US/EU) and self‑serve onboarding; marketed for rapid setup.Choose VISIT when you prioritise a managed partner model and German-hosted operations; choose VisitUs when you want quick self-serve cloud deployment and regional hosting choice.
Hardware & kiosk supportNo published details for kiosk hardware, tablet apps or supported OS; hardware requirements are not specified on public pages.Public documentation shows tablet sign-in, optional kiosk usage and mobile companion apps for iOS/Android.If you need explicit kiosk hardware guidance or mobile client options out of the box, VisitUs provides clearer signals; VISIT requires a procurement conversation to confirm client-device support.
Visitor journey & sign-in flowsDescribed as overlaying existing IT using a 'Digital Fluid' approach; supports visitors, suppliers and third‑party workflows but flow-level UI/mobile specifics are not published.Detailed sign-in options (tablet, web, QR), pre-registration (portal, calendar, CSV), QR codes, inductions, digital signing and configurable flows are published.For out-of-the-box configurable sign-in flows, pre-registration and QR workflows, VisitUs has explicit features; VISIT emphasizes integration overlay and needs clarification on UX and device workflows.
Contractor / Fremdfirmen managementVISIT explicitly references Fremdfirmen and supplier workflows, indicating contractor/third‑party support but without detailed induction/badging procedures on public pages.VisitUs publishes contractor induction, signed documents, inductions and compliance tracking as core capabilities.Both target contractor management; VisitUs lists operational features for induction and compliance, while VISIT signals capability but requires details on how induction/badging and compliance records are handled.
Evacuation & roll-callEvacuation and muster workflows are not described in the public VISIT pages supplied.VisitUs publishes mobile roll calls, 'I am safe' confirmations, SMS alerts, time‑stamped evacuation reports and multi-site views.If evacuation capability and mobile roll-call reporting are procurement must-haves, VisitUs provides explicit functionality; VISIT needs clarification on emergency-muster features.
Access-control & integrationsVISIT emphasises overlay integration ('Digital Fluid') but does not publish specific access-control integrations, APIs or SSO details on the supplied pages.VisitUs publishes REST API, webhooks, SSO, directory integration and Microsoft Teams/Active Directory integrations.For documented access-control, directory and automation integrations, VisitUs offers clearer, auditable integration options; VISIT’s integration model should be probed for specific adapters and APIs.
Analytics & reportingASTRUM IT hosting pages mention monitoring and performance analyses for hosted apps, but VISIT-specific audit, evacuation or export reporting is not published.VisitUs publishes audit-ready time-stamped evacuation reports, visitor history exports, scheduled reports and multi-site reporting dashboards.VisitUs provides explicit reporting capabilities for compliance and evacuation; VISIT’s reporting capabilities require confirmation during evaluation.
Pricing posture & procurement frictionNo pricing or plan details published; vendor emphasises managed hosting and SLAs which implies bespoke commercial terms.Public pricing posture includes a free forever plan, 7-day premium trial and location-based paid plans (publicly mentioned though some per-location details require follow-up).VisitUs reduces early procurement friction with an ongoing free tier and trial; VISIT will likely involve negotiated hosting and service contracts—better for buyers wanting managed SLAs but slower for pilots.

Choose VISIT when

  • German-hosted managed operations with contractual SLAs and a vendor-managed hosting partnership.
  • Your procurement prefers bespoke hosting/operational contracts over a self-serve SaaS onboarding model.
  • A vendor that positions the solution to overlay and integrate into existing IT with managed operational support.
  • German-hosted managed operations and prefer an overlay integration model for visitor flows.
  • Explicit offering of Full Managed Hosting and on‑premise support with German servers and SLAs

Choose VisitUs when

  • An out-of-the-box cloud solution with explicit evacuation and roll-call features.
  • Low-friction evaluation: free forever plan or short trial and visible public reviews.
  • Documented APIs, SSO/directory integrations and mobile/iOS/Android support for hosts and visitors.
  • Strong evacuation workflows plus a low-friction free trial to validate operations.
  • Pre-registration, multi-site reporting and Teams/AD integration.

VISIT fit considerations

  • Evacuation/emergency-muster or identity-verification workflows are not described and should be clarified.
  • Validate contractor induction, badging and emergency-muster features if required for compliance.
  • Check available integration interfaces (APIs/SSO/ID systems) and reference implementations.
  • How well does VISIT match your busiest visitor, contractor, or reception workflow?
  • Which locations, teams, and visitor types should be included in the first rollout?

VisitUs fit considerations

  • Badge/label layout and field customization limits
  • Limited integrations
  • Reception check-in is primarily designed around tablet
  • Advanced configuration can be restrictive for complex requirements
  • Compare per-location pricing and module add-on costs vs alternatives

What appears similar

  • Both vendors position support for visitors, contractors and supplier workflows, but VISIT emphasizes managed hosting while VisitUs emphasises self-serve cloud features and evacuation tools.
  • Both signal contractor management capability; only VisitUs publishes operational details (digital signing, inductions, QR workflows, onboarding), while VISIT signals capability via product positioning and needs clarification on process-level features.

Fit questions

  • Which system better matches your busiest visitor, contractor, or reception workflow?
  • Which platform fits your current workplace, identity, messaging, and access-control stack?
  • Which rollout path is easiest for your locations, support model, and budget?
