With so many people making their way into an office building on any given day - whether as a prospective job candidate, a vendor with a delivery, or for a client meeting - it is vital that today's visitor and employee management systems are prepared to keep the grounds safe from unwanted visitors, including COVID-19.

Demand grew almost overnight for fast, touchless visitor management systems that could do more to keep people safe.

Speed is also an important factor in a visitor management system-and it can be improved with biometrics.

Biometric modality availability: Lastly, which biometric modalities are supported by the system you're considering? Any provider looking to incorporate biometrics into its visitor management solution should take note of the number of modalities available through a single biometric vendor.

They can integrate with existing visitor management infrastructure for an easy upgrade to touchless functionality.

With contactless solutions now here to stay, it's imperative that visitor management providers critically examine the benefits mobile and tablet based biometric solutions can provide when considering upgrading their system and choose a provider that gives them the flexibility to configure the system to their needs.
