Visitor management for commercial towers and multi-tenant buildings

Busy tower lobbies serve visitors for many tenants. Zapio VMS gives building management a fast lobby check-in, tenant notifications, visitor badges and a live view of everyone in the building.

Overview

A faster lobby for every tenant

In a multi-tenant tower, the lobby is shared by every company in the building. Morning peaks bring long queues, and security needs to know which floor each visitor is heading to.

Zapio VMS lets tenants pre-register their guests, who then check in at a lobby kiosk with a QR code. The right tenant is notified, the visitor receives a badge and building security sees everyone on site.

Building management

One platform for the lobby, tenants and security

Building managers get a consistent lobby process and a complete record of visits. Tenants get control over their own guests through pre-registration and arrival alerts.

When a building-wide evacuation is needed, the floor-level headcount shows which visitors are still inside.

  • Lobby kiosks with QR check-in
  • Tenant pre-registration
  • Instant tenant notifications
  • Photo badges for every visitor
  • Floor-level evacuation tracking
