How to Handle Visitors

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

What do building sites, schools and prisons all have in common? The need for effective visitor management. Yes, perhaps the single most ubiquitous security concern relates to correct handling of visitors, and this is with good reason. For example, if unauthorised personnel wander into unsafe areas of a building site or if members of the public are allowed to walk freely around a school premises, then a variety of potential safety issues could arise.

Luckily, there is a simple but highly effective solution to visitor management – ID cards. However, unlike employee management, for example, proper management of visitors affords some unique challenges and requires specialised visitor management software.

For example, unlike employee or pupils, a visitor population with not stay constant and your software should be able to accommodate and issue new IDs at a pace that is convenient for a transient visitor to a building site or school, for example. Our “ID Manager Visitor” and “ID Manager Visitor Pro” software is especially suited to this task, and will allow the speedy registration of visitors and the extremely fast printing of ID cards.

Which brings us to the next crucial consideration regarding visitor systems – the ID cards should be appropriate for visitor usage. Therefore, if you need to issue temporary IDs on a regular basis you might opt for more affordable plastic cards, whereas if you need to optimise security, such as in a prison setting, functionality you could choose cards that have inherent security features such as watermarks.

Quality ID Cards and Printers

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

Quality is an important consideration when it comes to many products, and ID cards are no exception. It’s essential that you go for the best ID cards that you can as failing to do so can lead to a whole host of issues, and can even put your staff and your business as a whole at risk.

If you go for ID cards that aren’t high quality, you can never be sure of their effectiveness. They’re liable to be a lot less durable than more expensive options so could need replacing sooner, and then there’s the fact that they won’t come with the security measures that you need.

It’s essential that your ID card printing system is capable of lamination, making the cards strong and tamperproof, as if the picture or even the name/added information can be changed then you’ve completely lost the point of having cards in the first place. This can create a huge security risk as anyone could get their hands on a card and change the details, so quality options should always be top priority.

Quality ID cards and plastic card printers are sure to cost more, but that’s a small price to pay for the extra confidence you’ll have in them. If they’re tamperproof, durable and offer top-level security you’ll often find that you’ll save money in the long run anyway, simply due to the fact that they won’t need to be replaced so often.

As you can see, it really is important to go for quality ID cards if you want the best for your business. And, for a great range of quality ID systems to get your perfect cards, make sure to come to us here at ID Management Systems and we’re sure that you won’t be disappointed.
