IDenticard fit considerations

If a cloud-native, SaaS subscription with published per-user/visitor pricing is required, IDenticard’s server-based PassagePoint and non-published pricing model may not match procurement expectations
Server-based deployment may require IT resources for installation and ongoing maintenance compared with cloud-native SaaS alternatives
Need for on-premises/server-hosted solution vs cloud SaaS
Integration requirements with local directories, watch-list sources and access control
Desire to procure badges/printers from a single vendor

Visitor Desk fit considerations

Do not assume cloud hosting region, pricing, SLAs or emergency mustering capabilities without vendor confirmation (no explicit statements on site).
Assess evacuation/mustering and contractor/induction workflows if required for site safety.
Which privacy, compliance, and record-retention requirements matter most for your organisation?
Which existing workplace, identity, messaging, or access systems should this connect with?
Which plan structure best matches your number of locations, visitor volume, and rollout timeline?
