eVisitor vs SALTO IDM

eVisitor is a cloud-based visitor management system from Sandia International for sign-in, visitor enrollment and badge printing. The interface can run on a desktop, tablet or kiosk, and the system is described as scalable to visitor volume. Organizations can create customized adhesive picture badges with their logo for vendors, contractors, temporary employees, volunteers, parents and substitute teachers. Some labels are self-expiring and change color overnight to discourage reuse. The basic system includes a direct thermal printer and labels. Reports can be run, saved and printed from a separate administrator station in the building. Available packages include a Turbo Color Package with a Primera printer, driver’s license reader and desktop camera, plus tabletop and floor-standing kiosk packages with printers and photo driver’s license readers. The vendor offers demos and sells through direct contact; public package prices are not shown.
