Evidence confidence: medium
| Factor | Teamgo | VisitorDesk | Buyer meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buyer fit / Data residency | Cloud-hosted on AWS with regional hosting options (Australia, UK, US) — positioned for multi-location, global teams and geofenced mobile attendance. | Explicit EU-hosted (DG SVO / EU data centres) and GDPR-focused positioning, with an on-premise Enterprise option for EU compliance needs. | Choose VisitorDesk if EU data residency/GDPR and on-prem options are mandatory; choose Teamgo if you need AWS-hosted regional options outside the EU and mobile geofencing features. |
| Deployment & Professional services | Guided setup with 24/7 online support and optional account managers; vendor emphasizes self-service kiosk apps and cloud onboarding. | Offers professional services including on-site kiosk installation, hardware bundles, data migration and dedicated account/SLA for Enterprise customers. | VisitorDesk reduces rollout risk for physical kiosk deployments via onsite services; Teamgo emphasises self-service/cloud onboarding and live support. |
| Hardware & kiosk strategy | Free iPad and Android kiosk apps, optional kiosks, unlimited kiosks/users signal and offline kiosk sync; typical BYO kiosks and known badge-printer compatibility notes. | Offers hardware bundles and professional installation; positioned to sell turnkey kiosk bundles and installation as part of deployment services. | If you want vendor-supplied hardware and installation, VisitorDesk is more turnkey; if you prefer BYO tablet kiosks and self-managed apps, Teamgo is oriented to that model. |
| Visitor journey & mobile support | Multiple contactless check-in modes: iPad/Android kiosks, QR posters, web forms and Teamgo Pass mobile app for iOS and Android (remote sign-in and QR scanning). | Tablet self-service kiosk and QR pre-registration are explicit; native mobile app availability for visitors/admins is not published and must be confirmed. | Choose Teamgo when mobile app-based remote sign-in and geofenced mobile check-in are required; confirm mobile capability before selecting VisitorDesk for mobile-first workflows. |
| Contractor management & compliance | Explicit contractor compliance workflows, document requests, inductions and expiry monitoring baked into platform. | Provides compliance workflows as add-ons/modules (site/yard/event modules) and API/SSO integration; contractor-specific depth not as explicitly emphasised on core pages. | Teamgo appears better-documented for contractor induction/compliance out-of-the-box; VisitorDesk may support similar workflows via modules—validate module scope and licensing. |
| Evacuation & emergency | Built-in emergency activation and real-time evacuation/attendee lists across sites (explicit feature). | Evacuation lists and emergency alarm features are provided within site/yard management modules (explicit but module-scoped). | Both support evacuation lists; Teamgo presents evacuation as core VMS functionality, VisitorDesk provides it within specific modules—confirm module inclusion in desired plan. |
| Access control & integrations | Mentions integrations (Azure/AD, calendar, badge printers) and API/SCIM integration points but detailed connector specs not published — recommended to validate integration depth. | Explicit SSO/Active Directory support and API access noted; on-premise and enterprise integration pathways emphasised for gate/ERP connectivity. | For standard SSO/AD and API integration needs VisitorDesk provides clearer enterprise integration positioning; for broader cloud integrations (geofencing, calendar) confirm Teamgo connector specifics. |
| Pricing posture | Public fixed-tier US-listed monthly pricing (Essential $29, Advance $99, Complete $199) and a 30-day free trial; Enterprise via sales. | Published Starter (€49/mo) and Professional (€149/mo) plans, 14-day free trial (no card); Enterprise/custom pricing and add-on modules priced separately. | Teamgo offers lower-tier US dollar price points and a longer trial enabling rapid evaluation; VisitorDesk lists EUR pricing and modular add-on costs—model total cost for required modules and services. |
