About

With the Connect Property Kiosk, you now have a separate option for visitor sign-in. Visitors can register themselves at the Property Kiosk and upon sign-in visitors can specify the tenant they are visiting. This will notify the tenant of arrival and provide the visitor with next steps such as how to get their badge printed, etc.

Benefits of using the Connect Property Kiosk

  • Reduce the burden and cost of having extra staff or security in your building lobby by having visitors register and sign-in on the kiosk instead.

  • The kiosk contains data for all of the tenants within your property building making the sign-in process much easier.

  • Admins can get instant notifications for guests rather than waiting for phone calls from a staff member.

  • Provides a great back up option if your visitor forgot or lost their QR code for sign-in.

If you want to change the kiosk display from the default, just customize the welcome screen settings.
