Capture visitor photos
Security procedures are a must in any modern workplace, but you don’t want regulations to overshadow the warm welcome you give to guests. When you use Envoy to capture your visitor’s photos, it’s easy to have the best of both worlds.
When a visitor signs in with Envoy, you can use the iPad’s front facing camera to snap a photo of each visitor for your security records. These photos appear on your dashboard and in host notifications, so you’ll be able to greet your guest confidently—even if you've never met before.
Flexible photo settings
Visitor photos
Easily capture a photo of each visitor during sign-in. Visitor photos automatically appear on the dashboard guests sign in, making it easy to keep your admin and security teams in the loop about who’s on site.
Photos on file
Envoy recognizes recurring visitors, and checks to see if their photo is on file. If you choose to reuse the photo that was captured in an earlier visit, the guest will simply skip the photo-taking step, which makes sign-in even faster.
Easy to export photos
Visitor photos are always accessible from the dashboard, but it’s simple to save them from a visitor export as well. If you’re looking to automate this process, configure your own integration using our webhook, Zapier or IFTTT integrations.
Photos help you recognize visitors
Photos appear in host notifications
When there are multiple visitors in your lobby, it can be hard to know which guest to greet. Host notifications include the visitor’s photo, so your employees can easily identify their guest.
Photos for evacuation records
It's easy to access visitor photos on mobile in case of emergency or evacuation. This can help your team identify signed-in guests, account for them and make sure they’re safe.
Built to simplify security
Safely stored records
In case of a security incident, your dashboard shows who was in the building. Coupled with existing security precautions, visitor photos make Envoy an invaluable part of any integrated security system.
Visitor photos on badges
Printing each visitor’s photo on their badge acts like an instant I.D. check. If a visitor doesn't look like the photo on their badge, it's even harder for them to go unnoticed.
