Choose CoReceptionist when

  • Straightforward per-location pricing and a cloud tablet/kiosk check-in solution
  • Evacuation rollcall and simple host notifications (email/SMS/Slack) are priorities
  • Explicit per-location pricing tiers with contact limits visible on the pricing page
  • Touchless QR check‑in flow using phone camera emphasised on product pages
  • Evacuation notifications and an active visitor dashboard called out as included features

Choose FacilityOS when

  • Turnkey kiosk hardware, centralized contractor compliance and integrated evacuation/mustering across many sites.
  • Pre-configured iPad kiosks for hours-to-live deployments
  • Tight integration between ContractorOS and VisitorOS to auto-approve compliant contractors
  • Built-in evacuation/mustering integration across modules
  • Enterprises running multiple facilities that need audit-ready visitor and contractor records

CoReceptionist fit considerations

  • If you require documented regional hosting or on-premises deployment guarantees, the site does not present regional hosting details
  • Large campuses with complex licensing may require the enterprise custom plan referenced on the pricing page
  • Pricing is published per location and tied to a contact count; larger campuses may require an enterprise custom plan (pricing page)
  • Product is presented as cloud/tablet-first (iPad/Android); organisations seeking on‑prem hosting or regional hosting guarantees will need to evaluate hosting requirements (site does not state regional hosting).
  • Per-location pricing and how 'Contacts' are counted for multi-site deployments

FacilityOS fit considerations

  • Deployment speed and onboarding support (turnkey kiosks vs. BYO hardware)
  • Depth of contractor compliance features and how approvals propagate to check-in
  • Emergency mustering and real-time occupancy reporting for EHS use cases
