In today\u2019s modern workplace, friendly receptionists or gate attendants certainly still have their place, but they often can no longer keep up with today\u2019s demands\u2014especially during peak hours. Job applicants, customers, sales representatives, suppliers, tradespeople, as well as employees from outside companies and shipping firms often end up waiting in line. Furthermore, paper-based processes are slow, cumbersome, and labor-intensive compared to digital solutions\u2014not to mention potential data protection issues and the difficulty of creating <a href=\"https:\/\/visit.astrum-it.de\/en\/news\/visitor-badge-software\/\">evacuation lists<\/a>. Compounding the issue is the fact that large companies in particular often have multiple entry points\u2014main entrance, side entrances, loading docks\u2014and it is not feasible to station a gatekeeper at every one.

If a safety briefing is required to enter an area, this can also be conducted via the digital gateway system. In addition, the visitor can receive further information, such as directions to the meeting room or the loading dock designated for a delivery.
