IT Manager
The process for managing guests signing into and out of Albea Thomson was based on the use of a paper book and telephone. The system, while not broken – it actually worked fine, did raise a number of concerns which impacted on compliance and security:
Initially, Albea Thomson did a demo with a different company, however, the offering had limitations. This caused the team to go back to the drawing board to find a solution that met all of their needs. A quick search and they found WhosOnLocation.
“I liked it, shared it with management and got the go ahead to implement”
“The path to purchase was pretty simple. We received a demonstration of the product, this was great to be able to understand all the features and how they would best work for our situation. Plus it showed it worked with our access control system, Brivo. Following an internal demonstration, the management team were very impressed and gave the go ahead to implement.”
Implementation was simple, from start to finish WhosOnLocation was up and running in two days (in between other work).
“The Implementation went really smoothly. The WhosOnLocation Team helped with a recommended list of hardware. We purchased what was recommended, set it up, and we were away.”
“Implementation was a piece of cake, plug and pay.”
WhosOnLocation offers some key features that Albea Thomson really loved:
Implementing and using WhosOnLocation has made significant improvements to Albea Thomson. Guests are now greeted by a professional self service kiosk to sign in on and alert their host.
The process used is simple:
This process is great news for the Front of House team as they no longer need to play a role in this guest sign-in and host notification process other than greeting the guest when they come into the lobby area.
By implementing WhosOnLocation, Albea Thomson have gained a professional sign-in process, achieved productivity gains from our Front of House team and have peace of mind that in an emergency, should they have to evacuate the building, they are able to account for and verify the safety of everyone on-site using WolEvac.
