Scores are calculated consistently from published vendor information, product evidence and review sources.
This is a directory scoring model based on public vendor pages, review data, and visible product signals. It is designed to make differences easier to scan, not to declare a universal winner.
| Factor | Greetly | Lobbytrack | Buyer meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buyer fit / target buyer | Greetly emphasizes enterprise and multi-site customers needing branded badges, digital NDAs/waivers, directory sync and integrations with workplace comms. | Lobbytrack highlights a broader small-to-enterprise range including free small-office entry, with stronger emphasis on security workflows (watchlist checks), guard/employee apps and resource booking. | Choose Greetly when brandable guest experience, digital legal/waiver capture and directory integration with workplace chat are primary. Choose Lobbytrack when you need integrated security/guard workflows, ID/watchlist screening and a low-cost pilot path. |
| Pricing posture | Publicly published two paid plans (Essential, Pro) with yearly billing and stated monthly amounts; vendor describes 'no extra charges or hidden fees.' | Publicly advertises an ongoing free Starter plan plus paid tiers and an Ultimate quote plan, but does not publish per-tier rates on public pages. | Greetly offers clearer published per-month pricing to evaluate platform cost quickly; Lobbytrack potentially lowers entry cost via a free plan but requires vendor contact to price production/enterprise tiers, which may slow procurement. |
| Deployment and apps | Cloud-first with guided setup; optional kiosk hardware; mobile support on iOS and Android. | Cloud platform with first‑party Lobby (tablet), Employee and Guard apps; offers web, iOS, Android and Windows clients. | Lobbytrack may better support security teams and on-the-ground staff via dedicated Guard and Employee apps; Greetly focuses on streamlined kiosk and host notification flows. |
| Hardware and identity verification | Optional kiosk and badge printing supported; no published driver-license scanning or watchlist verification describes. | Optional kiosk and badge printing supported plus explicit support for driver-license scanning and watchlist checks; references barcode/ID scanners and Wi‑Fi printers (models not published). | If ID scanning and watchlist screening are required, Lobbytrack documents these capabilities. For simpler badge-printing and kiosk use, Greetly covers core needs. |
| Visitor journey and forms | Custom workflows for NDAs, waivers and safety acknowledgments; multilingual check-ins; touchless QR/phone check-ins. | Customizable registration forms and health/safety questions; touchless QR flow; explicit watchlist/ID screening as part of sign-in. | Choose Greetly when signed legal forms at check-in (NDAs/waivers) and branded multilingual flows matter. Choose Lobbytrack when screening steps (ID scan, watchlist) should be embedded in the visitor flow. |
| Contractor management | Vendor materials mention contractor and delivery tracking as supported capabilities. | Product pages target contractor compliance use cases and incident reporting; also provide employee/guard workflows that can be used for contractor supervision. | Both support contractor tracking, but Lobbytrack's additional Guard and Employee apps may offer more operational oversight of contractors on site. |
| Evacuation & emergency workflows | Evacuation tracking and emergency lists are referenced (evacuation tracking noted in product description). | Explicit Guard App feature set includes real‑time evacuation lists, emergency messaging and guard alerts. | Lobbytrack documents guard-facing evacuation workflows more clearly; Greetly provides evacuation tracking but may be more focused on reporting rather than multi-app emergency operations. |
| Access control integration | Advertises directory sync (Azure AD, Google Workspace) and a small number of access-control integration signals. | References Active Directory integration and SSO with Okta/Azure AD and indicates card management and access‑control card handling. | Both offer directory and SSO integration; Lobbytrack shows stronger signals for direct access-card management, which matters if you need visitor badge to interoperate with door systems. |
