What is Global Dashboard?

e-Reception Book provides a powerful and efficient solution for managing visitors across multiple locations with our user-friendly global dashboard. Our platform allows you to customise the visitor experience for each site while maintaining a centralised employee list for seamless staff check-in.

Our global dashboard offers flexibility, enabling you to set up site-specific requirements such as check-in forms, email notifications, and branding elements across all locations. This ensures consistency in the visitor management process and streamlines operations, making it easier to uphold your company’s standards and policies.

With e-Reception Book, you can enhance the visitor experience by tailoring it to each site’s needs, while enjoying the convenience of our centralised system. This approach not only improves efficiency but also helps maintain a professional and cohesive brand image across all your workplaces.
