Ashley B
IT mgr
5.0

Ashley: Hi. My name's Ashley and I am the IT and Applications manager for my organization. Organization size of about 100 to 150 people. We love SwipedOn and I give it five stars. So our organization does not have a receptionist anymore, does not have a meet and greet person in the foyer or the reception. So we were trying to figure out how to invite vendors and third party people onto our site, and we were doing a manual process with an email and a ring round and it just didn't work because nobody wanted the responsibility of doing the ring round. So SwipedOn, satisfied all that criteria because it is brilliant at notifying people of who's here and why they're here. We love SwipedOn because cloud-based, it works on lots of different devices like the Androids and the iOS and even Windows, and you can set up a kiosk anywhere at all. You could even set up a kiosk outside in the wall or inside in the foyer, and it's just easy and it works and it does what it says on the tin. SwipedOn getting set up, getting integrated, it is a process. The organization has to know what it wants before it can ask somebody to give it a solution, so it was a good idea for us to collaborate with colleagues and superiors to figure out what's the best thing to do. Then when I got engaged with the salesperson and the implementation team within SwipedOn, it was just so easy. They had a yes answer for everything. There was no messing, it was set up, integrated, all just worked. Lots of add-ons that you could choose to opt in or opt out, all good. I recommend SwipedOn because it's just a really good tool. It's lightweight software. It fits onto any operating system and it gives you lots of options to manage your external vendors coming on site. It logs their car registration, it notifies the supervisor or the person by SMS or email or other versions. It integrates with some of the other collaboration tools like Microsoft Teams and Slack and whatever else. I would really recommend it as a good solution.

Erica C
Finance Coordinator
5.0

Speaker 1: My name is Erica. I'm a financial coordinator in the behavioral health industry, and I give Envoy a five. Before Envoy, we had a paper sign-in system that we had to manually enter into our billing software. So switching over provided safety, especially now during COVID, without having to touch pens and pass a clipboard around, and make it much more easy and convenient. Also, all of our information, all of our sign-ins are one there in one nice convenient place that I can export right out of Envoy and into Excel, to pull the information and the data I need, which made it really amazing. The reason we chose Envoy is because of its ease of use and convenience. We were able to get our iPad set up that we already had, it was able to have on all stations so people could use it theirself, freeing up more of our staff from doing those sign-ins. It just the overall use and ease of Envoy was everything that we needed to keep our business flowing, to keep us COVID compliant, and just make everything go smoothly. Envoy onboarding, and switching everything over was so simple. I was even able to get all of our staff together and get them trained in a short 15 minute session. Everybody felt comfortable and able to use Envoy. Everything was just seamless. It just kind of moved over and it wasn't a big deal at all. It wasn't a huge concern, but once we did it and saw how easy it was, it was just perfect. The recommendations that I would give for using Envoy is, I mean, everything is right there. We have our legal user agreements all downloaded onto the system, so that way everything's signed in one fell swoop. Permissions for taking photos, everything we needed, we're able to upload. So you can even put in your legal documents that you need signed when people show up, they can sign in theirself. It gives you a photo, so you're able to identify the person you're looking for if maybe this is your first time meeting them. Like I said, it keeps all of your information in one nice place, which is easily able to export to an Excel spreadsheet. So that way, you can do whatever you need with the data, separate your visitors to types, times, all different kinds of things. Capture signatures, email addresses, phone numbers, everything in one nice little package.
