| Buyer fit and ideal customers | Positioned strongly for schools, regulated multi-site organisations, venues and organisations that need combined visitor, pupil/staff sign-in, asset/audit and evacuation services. | Positioned for medium-to-large enterprises and workplaces that want visitor workflows tightly integrated with occupancy and space-usage analytics and broader Tango workplace services. | Choose InVentry if your primary need is education/regulated-site workflows and on-site asset/audit services; choose Tango when you prioritise occupancy analytics and workplace optimisation alongside visitor flows. |

| Deployment focus and enterprise rollout | Described as enterprise-rollout and includes vendor-certified installer services for access-control integrations; public content emphasises rollout, training and on-site services (asset audits, installers). | Also described as enterprise-rollout with vendor-managed implementation and support services, but emphasis is on platform integration with Tango’s analytics rather than certified door-access installers. | If you need certified access-control installation and on-site audit services, InVentry’s publicly documented installer and audit offerings are a stronger signal. If you need managed rollout focused on analytics integration, Tango’s service posture aligns bette |

| Hardware options (kiosk, mobile) | Supports optional kiosks plus iOS and Android mobile platforms are explicitly referenced. | Supports optional kiosks and QR-code self-check-in; mobile platforms or native apps are not published on the public pages captured. | If you require vendor-stated native mobile support, InVentry documents it; Tango documents QR workflows but lacks published mobile platform describes in the analyzed material. |
|---|
| Visitor journey and customization | Provides visitor sign-in, staff/pupil sign-in, contractor workflows, badges, RollCall evacuation app and audit-oriented workflows (asset tagging, DBS-checked audit teams). | Provides pre-registration, configurable check-in experiences (deliveries, meetings, contractors), kiosk and QR self-serve check-in, and links visits into Tango occupancy analytics. | Choose InVentry if you need pupil/staff sign-in, on-site auditing and evacuation roll-call features. Choose Tango if you need highly configurable check-in flows linked to occupancy analytics and space planning. |

| Contractor management | Public pages reference contractor management as a named capability and include workflows tied to access-control integrations and temporary access passes. | Public pages indicate support for contractor workflows as configurable check-in experiences but do not show documented door-access sync or temporary access pass services in the captured evidence. | If contractor visits must synchronise with door-access systems or require temporary access tokens, InVentry shows clearer, documented signals for that use-case; Tango covers contractor workflows functionally but integration details are not published in the cap |
|---|
| Evacuation and roll-call capabilities | Explicit RollCall Cloud live evacuation roll-calls accessible from mobile devices and evacuation workflows are documented. | Evacuation support is not published in the captured material as an explicit feature tied to mobile roll-calls or similar emergency workflows. | If live mobile-accessible evacuation roll-calls are required, InVentry documents that capability; Tango does not publish an equivalent evacuation in the analyzed content. |
|---|
| Access control integrations | Explicit, documented integrations with Paxton, Salto, Suprema and Almas, including single-swipe and biometric/token behaviours and certified installer workflows. | Public pages captured contain no documented access-control vendor integrations; emphasis is on analytics and visitor data rather than door-control syncs. | For projects requiring direct door-access vendor integration and installer workflows, InVentry provides explicit integration signals; Tango’s public material does not show this level of access-control evidence. |
|---|
| Analytics and reporting | Includes asset & audit reporting (exportable reports, warranty tracking, depreciation) and visitor/evacuation reporting signals; analytics depth tied to audit/asset needs. | Emphasises occupancy analytics and space-usage insights by design, integrating visitor records into Tango’s workplace analytics platform. | Pick Tango when occupancy analytics and space optimisation from visitor data are key; choose InVentry when audit, asset tracking and exportable compliance reporting are primary. |
