"WhosOnLocation is the simplest application that we use here at Sandvine."

Key challenges

Sandvine were looking for an employee management solution to replace their paper-based system. They also needed to know exactly who was on-site in real time, print identification badges and run movement statistics.

Sandvine needed an employee management system that would:

  • replace their paper visitor sign-in sheet
  • take the sign-in responsibilities away from their receptionist
  • ensure staff and visitors could easily sign-in and out of site
  • manage contractors and visitors on-site, and make sure they could be properly inducted
  • let multiple people sign-in and out at the same time
  • be run in the cloud, so there was no need for System Administrators or in-house servers
  • allow them to run reports on people movements at their sites

Implementing WOL was beyond smooth. I had 90% of the setup done myself in one day.

The WhosOnLocation Solution

Sandvine chose to implement WhosOnLocation as their employee, contractor, visitor and evacuation management system after being made aware of the product by Identicard.

WhosOnLocation was easily and effectively implemented, without a big outlay for equipment and programming. Sandvine now have a Window’s surface and a tiny printer at their reception. This system is cost effective, reliable and has a small footprint.

WhosOnLocation has improved security, reduce the burden on our reception and is professional looking.

Sandvine uses their WhosOnLocation software to:

  • let staff scan in and out of site using their barcoded ID cards at a WhosOnLocation kiosk, or by using WolMobile
  • sign multiple people in and out of their site at the same time
  • issue their visitors with a barcoded tag and red lanyard so they are easily identified, using WhosOnLocation’s Visitor Pass
  • make sure any contractors and visitors on-site have been properly inducted using WhosOnLocation’s Induction Management.
