Choose Fischer & Kerrn when

  • Your organisation relies on Outlook/Microsoft 365 and needs integrated visitor + workspace booking.
  • Choose the vendor for enterprise rollouts requiring managed migration to Azure and vendor-led installation.
  • Native Outlook pre-registration and deep Microsoft 365 integration
  • Concierge Cloud built on Microsoft Azure with automatic scaling and continuous monitoring
  • Flexible hardware portfolio for kiosks and badge printing

Choose WorkInSync when

  • A single vendor to manage desk booking, visitor flows, parking and workplace analytics across multiple sites.
  • SAML/SCIM and AD integration plus enterprise compliance certifications are required.
  • Bundled workplace platform combining visitor management with desk/meeting/parking and kiosks (not a stand-alone visitor-only product).
  • Published per-user pricing with both monthly and annual options and explicit feature mapping per tier.
  • Enterprises seeking a unified workplace platform (booking + visitor + parking + analytics)

Fischer & Kerrn fit considerations

  • Regional hosting specifics beyond Azure are not detailed on public pages.
  • Contractor induction/management features are not explicitly described on visitor pages.
  • Depth of Microsoft 365 / Outlook integration and how it fits existing calendaring workflows.
  • Cloud hosting region/SLA specifics for Azure tenancy and backups.
  • Hardware compatibility and badge printer models supported.

WorkInSync fit considerations

  • If visitor volumes are large but licensed user counts are low, per-user pricing may be suboptimal relative to visitor- or kiosk-based models.
  • Hardware (kiosks, sensors, tablets) is not included in plans and requires separate procurement and integration effort.
  • Pricing is per-user which can be costly for visitor-heavy organisations where many guests do not count as licensed users; hardware (kiosks, sensors, tablets) is billed separately per the pricing FAQ.
  • Some advanced capabilities (custom dashboards, integrations, sensor management) are gated to Enterprise tier, requiring higher per-user spend for large deployments.
  • Total cost for visitor-heavy sites when licensing is per-user vs visitor-based pricing
