Visitor Management.
Replace all visitor books on your front desk with an iPad-based system to check in and out visitors. Create a modern first impression with a fully branded system. Today, first impressions are important for each visitor entering your school.
Offering a secure and positive experience upon entry that falls in line with both certain standards and regional COVID-19 restrictions is now a necessity for schools wishing to provide the best first impressions.
Staff Check-in.
e-Reception Book offers a digital solution for managing employee check-ins and check-outs, as well as staff attendance schedules. By using access control fobs or a smartphone application, employees can easily clock in and out, eliminating the need for traditional paper-based check-in methods.
Furthermore, when a visitor arrives on premise, staff members will receive automatic notifications via email, improving the overall visitor experience and streamlining the check-in process.

Trusted by 1,300 schools and colleges.
As a provider of visitor management services, we take great pride in offering our assistance to some of the most renowned and esteemed schools across the UK. Our goal is to extend our reliable and efficient solution to all schools, regardless of their scale or nature of operations, in order to assist them in keeping track of their visitors, contractors, and staff with unparalleled flexibility and ease.
Add your branding.
A fully branded visitor management system allows schools and colleges to create a professional experience for visitors, while also promoting the company's brand.
e-Reception Book can be configured to send automated email notifications to visitors and staff, which can be customised to include the school’s branding, such as logo, colours, and messaging.
One solution to replace all books.
e-Reception Book can be used to log visitors, staff, and contractors using one system to replace multiple paper books, providing several advantages over a traditional paper-based system.
All visitor, staff, and contractor information can be stored in a centralised location, making it easy to access, search, and analyse data. This eliminates the need for multiple paper books, which can be difficult to manage and keep track of.
Fire evacuation lists.
With e-Reception Book, you can maintain a real-time list of visitors and staff in your school, which can be used in case of evacuation. The system allows you to highlight or check out visitors as they are being evacuated, so that other security staff can instantly get an update on who is still in the building.
The e-Reception Book feature keeps a real-time central database that can be shared by all devices, ensuring that you have the most accurate and comprehensive information at all times in case of an emergency.
Document signing.
Visitors and contractors can now digitally sign important documents, such as non-disclosure agreements and contractor disclaimer forms, directly on an iPad device at the time of check-in.
This feature is made possible through the use of the e-Reception Book dashboard, where different documents can be uploaded and made available for specific visitor categories to sign. This streamlines the check-in process and ensures that all necessary documents are signed and on file in a timely and efficient manner.
Invite your visitors.
Enhance your visitor check-in process by pre-registering guests in advance. This allows for a more seamless and efficient check-in experience upon arrival, as all of their information will already be pre-populated. Pre-registration can be done easily through the e-Reception Book or through the smartphone companion app.
Additionally, you have the option to send pre-registered guests an email invite with your branding, including details on the date and time of the visit, who they will be meeting, directions, and a QR code for scanning upon arrival.
Real-time dashboard.
The e-Reception Book dashboard provides a convenient and comprehensive way for you to manage your visitor and staff check-in activity, as well as access important information such as your visitor history, fire list and site settings. This can be done easily from any desktop or laptop.
The history view feature within the dashboard is a complete log of all check-in activity within your specified data retention period, allowing you to easily search and filter through your data. Additionally, you have the ability to export detailed reports for each visitor category to a CSV format, providing a useful tool for tracking and analysing your visitor traffic.
Companion app.
Experience the convenience of e-Reception Book on the go with our staff companion app. This app allows your employees to easily check in, pre-register guests and view the fire evacuation list, all from their mobile device. There is no limit to the number of users you can invite.
The e-Reception Book Companion app is available as a free download on both iOS and Android platforms, through the App Store and Google Play Store respectively.
Global dashboard.
e-Reception Book offers a powerful and efficient solution for managing visitors across multiple locations through its easy-to-use global dashboard. This allows you to customise the visitor experience for each individual school, while still maintaining a centralised employee list for simple staff check-in.
The global dashboard also enables you to easily set up school-specific requirements such as check-in forms, email notifications and branding across all locations, ensuring consistency and streamlining the visitor management process.
Roles & permissions.
Assign specific roles to each of your staff members in order to tailor the access and permissions they have within the system to your school needs. This feature is designed to give you flexibility and control over the different tasks and responsibilities of your staff, and can be customised to suit the unique setup of your school.
For example, you may create a "Receptionist" role that grants your receptionist access to the dashboard, but limits their access to other parts of the system, such as the visitor history or site settings. This ensures that only staff members with the appropriate level of access and permission can view and manage specific information, providing an added layer of security and control to your visitor management process.
RFID staff check-in.
Provide an easy and secure way for your employees to check in and out of your school using their existing access control fobs or cards. This feature allows your staff to use the same fob or card that they already have for building access, eliminating the need for additional cards or fobs.
The process is simple and quick, as all your employees need to do is tap their connected reader to their paired fob for a seamless check-in. Additionally, staff members can connect multiple fobs to their e-Reception Book account, providing added flexibility and convenience for those who may have multiple fobs or cards. Streamline the check-in process for both staff and guests, saving time and reducing frustration.
MIS integration.
The integration of the e-Reception Book with various Management Information Systems (MIS) is a key feature of our system, as it allows for seamless communication and pupil data sharing between different systems.
This integration is designed to be secure, and we support integration with some of the most widely used MIS systems, including SIMS, Arbor and RM Integris. Our integration allows for both read and write access so that data captured in the e-Reception Book can be automatically synced with your MIS.
