Key differences

FactorLobbyBaseTeamgoBuyer meaning
Buyer fit / target customersExplicitly positioned for multi-location workplaces, schools, aged care, logistics, government and enterprise with features for contractors, mobile staff and compliance.Positioning limited to generic 'workplace' and 'enterprise' with no detailed industry or buyer-fit signals published.Teamgo has clearer fit signals for regulated, multi-site, or contractor-heavy organisations; LobbyBase requires direct vendor conversation to assess fit.
Deployment & hostingCloud-hosted on AWS with stated regional hosting options (Australia, UK, US) and guided setup; mentions offline kiosk sync.No published hosting, deployment model or offline capabilities documented.Teamgo gives clearer data residency and outage/offline expectations; LobbyBase buyers must verify hosting, regions and kiosk resilience.
Hardware & kiosk supportSupports free iPad and Android kiosk apps, unlimited kiosks per account, optional badge printers (mentions compatibility), and mobile app (Teamgo Pass).No published details about kiosk apps, supported hardware, printers or mobile apps.Teamgo reduces procurement risk around kiosk/tablet deployments; LobbyBase buyers must confirm supported devices, printer models and licensing for kiosks.
Visitor journey / sign-in methodsMultiple self-service options: iPad/Android kiosks, QR posters, web forms, pre-registration, Teamgo Pass mobile app, photo capture and optional FaceID.No published details on check-in methods, pre-registration, or biometric/photo capture.Teamgo supports contactless and multiple sign-in journeys out of the box; LobbyBase needs clarification on visitor flow options (contactless, pre-reg, remote check-in).
Contractor management & complianceExplicit contractor workflows including inductions, document requests, expiry monitoring and attendance tracking.No published contractor management features or compliance workflows.Teamgo is better scoped for sites needing contractor compliance records; LobbyBase buyers should validate whether contractor inductions and expiry monitoring exist.
Evacuation & emergency roll-callEmergency activation, evacuation mode and real-time onsite reporting for roll-call.No published evacuation or emergency reporting capabilities.Teamgo provides a tested emergency workflow; LobbyBase buyers must confirm evacuation reporting and alerting features for safety compliance.
Access control & integrationsMentions integrations (Azure/AD, calendar systems), badge printers and API/SCIM possibilities but integration depth not fully documented.No published integration list or access-control connector details.Teamgo shows some integration readiness though buyers should validate connectors; LobbyBase needs explicit integration capabilities to assess SSO and door-controller integration risk.
Pricing posturePublic fixed-tier monthly pricing (Essential $29, Advance $99, Complete $199) plus enterprise quotes and a 30-day free trial.No published pricing information; likely requires sales engagement for cost estimates.Teamgo enables quick budgetary assessment and trialing; LobbyBase procurement will need direct quote and may have hidden costs.
