Avis clients sur Envoy

Envoy is the best solution for managing visitors on multiple floors and managing package delivery.

Commentaires : It really is a simple solution for front desk communication, it cuts down on the panic when a VIP arrives and you need to locate their contact. Staff really appreciate getting the instant message with a photo of the visitor. Signing in is as easy as 123, first name and last name and an e-mail. Also responding to a notification is literally a one-click deal. It really cuts down on the build up of packages at front desk. It is simple and it is a great tool for the front of house operations.

Avantages :

Having tried out various solutions over the past 5 years. It is obvious that Envoy is the best solution for managing visitors on multiple floors and managing packages. It is convenient to set up the iPad app, users appreciate getting notifications when Interview candidates arrive at the front desk, they can get a notification message by E-mail or Text message and Slack instant message. Also when packages arrive for employees, they also get a photo of the package label sent to them, this is great for locating priority packages, once collected the user just clicks on a button to mark it as picked up.

Inconvénients :

Our location uses Apple iOS iPad minis with 8 inch screens, the app is certainly a stable build for iOS devices. However the few brief moments when I decided to use Envoy on a Android smart phone I did experience several crashes. That was annoying but I believe these bugs may have been addressed in a more recent build. For now we decided to only use the iPads as they seem to do the trick.

Saves time for receptionist, increases security, add professionalism

Commentaires : Envoy has become an integral part of our environment. With connections to Active Directory, Teams, and OneDrive we have streamlined the visitor notification and NDA process. We are able to pre-register visitors to speed up their check-in time using the Outlook add-in. Using the Deliveries feature saves our receptionist and mail room additional time, while letting employees know immediately when something arrives for them. In addition to the portal record of all visitors, along with their picture, the Teams notifications give our employees a record of their visitors to refer back to when needed. It's also helpful now that all visitors have a badge to be able to glance down at it if you forget their name ;-).

Avantages :

Envoy is very well designed for corporate environments. Our initial goal was simply a system that allows us to record and badge all visitors primarily for security reasons. We chose Envoy for the ability to notify users of visitors using email/Skype/Teams, which saves our receptionist time trying to track people down, and the ability to ask visitors to digitally sign an NDA.

Inconvénients :

The integration was not difficult for our IT team, and the features and integrations have expanded significantly since we started using it in 2017. My only gripe would be the annual premium subscription and label rolls are a bit pricey for an organization of our size, but it is not excessive compared to other options.

Best registration software - with pre-registration management - I have used

Commentaires : Very strong - great product. Not the cheapest but the functionality for the cost far exceeds competitors'.

Avantages :

The only product I researched that had preregistration functionality that could still be segmented for privacy. Preregistration tracking is key to managing some of our guest access policies.

Inconvénients :

Launch was a little rough because of an account setup glitch. It was easily fixed within a day, however, and it has worked perfectly since. I don't love the new service model without an assigned contact. The service staff are very responsive, but I prefer an account manager who knows the whole story of what we need.

Unable to register

Commentaires : Very disappointing. I wish my company used a different app.

Avantages :

I have not had a chance to use it. I've been trying to get registered for a couple of hours already.

Inconvénients :

Unable to register. The mobile app started with Let's Get Started, regardless of whether one is already registered or not. Next is enter email. It takes 90 seconds to come back with something (on a fast phone). Then email was found. I scan the code and I am in. But, the very first time I tried to log in, my company had not connected me with the app. Virtually the same log in process led me to create my own (personal) account, which I was not intending to do. Then when my company did add me to Envoy, now it seems my email exists in two Envoy accounts. When I log in now, I see some information (like company logo and full name) displayed, but it also seems to be my personal account that I had created. I am assuming the logo and full company name would come from my company domain the Envoy has on file. But I know it's my personal account, as there are no resources available, like no rooms etc. Ok. How do I delete the account? I go through the (confusing) set of menus (my profile, then drop down for company, then manage accounts. In there I see my name (and email), select, and delete. It takes me to the Let's Get Started page. When I "log in" again, the same thing happens. Ok. Let's try their support, right? Not available, as it is Saturday. Everybody in the company must be taking weekends off, there is no support. I must wait for Monday. But Monday is exactly what I am trying to reserve at the office, as the company policy is to use Envoy to be able to work at the office.

Amazing Experience with Envoy - Highly Recommended!

Commentaires : Overall, I'm very pleased with my experience with Envoy. It has proven to be a reliable and efficient service that has made my life much easier.

Avantages :

Envoy has great customer service and their product is easy to use. The features are intuitive and the customer support team is always available to help. I've been using Envoy for a few months now and couldn't be happier.

Inconvénients :

The only downside I've experienced with Envoy is the cost - it is a bit expensive compared to some of the other options available.

admin and user friendly

Commentaires : Envoy is a great tool to add to your business. Especially, during covid19 protocol, the contactless or minimum contact is key for visitors and employees of the company to get notified. It is customizable where you can add in covid19 standard questions and it tracks just the right visitors info. I would recommend other companies to add Envoy for managing visitors on multiple floors and managing package delivery!

Avantages :

What I like the most is that is contactless when using the app on your phone. The kiosk is accessible and convenient when there are one or more tenants in the building. The notifications are fast and efficient

Inconvénients :

the least about Envoy is that is not compatible with all mobile devices. It is great for apple user, but not so much for Android.

Great Visitor Management System

Avantages :

This product is very easy to integrate to an organization; the active directory synchronization keeps employee list accurate and is easy to set up. The entire visitor presentation experience is completely customizable to your organization's needs. Customer service/support is within minutes, connecting to a real person in a chat window and issues or improvement ideas are actually taken into account, and used for future releases....amazing have had two improvement ideas taken and incorporated into now current features.

Inconvénients :

Not much to dislike about this software; it does what it is designed to do, and does it very well.

Envoy- Safety for our Associates and Visitors

Avantages :

Health Check - Regardless of vaccinations, COVID-19 is continuing to stay with variants and spikes throughout the states and countries. The safety of our Associates and visitors is important. We have an onsite RN who has been providing service since March of 2020 and he truly appreciates Envoy. By including Envoy into our daily routine, we've been able to ease the mind of associates and visitors. The program is easy to learn/use and the best part is "the Bot" and if the "bot" doesn't answer the question, we are immediately directed to a "live" person. This is definitely huge. There are many other safety or security programs that take 24-48 hours to respond. Kiosk Multi language is a great success and we hope to see more languages, i.e. Vietnamese, etc.

Inconvénients :

Side bar, when we view Protect and want to verify "employees expected" it jumps to Visitors. That has been the most confusing to many Executives , Managers, etc. Dashboard "Employee Registration" tab should only be available for viewing to Global Access Administrators and No one else! Settings is under Visitor tab and Settings should be on it's own tab.

Easy to set up, easy to use.

Commentaires : No more trying to find information in papers/binders. Saves room by archiving on cloud-based records rather than binders. Gives a better/updated impression of our company.

Avantages :

Very straight forward to set up and user-friendly.

Inconvénients :

Haven't found any yet - been using it for almost a year (less the closed office of the last couple of months due to COVID). But have had nothing but positive feedback from users and even implemented in another office of ours, after they tried it here.

The best and Functional Tracking and Data Management Package.

Commentaires : The Envoy sign capability and the reporting ability is amazing and great on engagement and project information is management and the data integration across other systems is simple.

Avantages :

Envoy is very functional and easy to implement and signature capability and activity tracking is effective and the data access control features are more productive.Envoy also offers the best documentation and effective coordination across various members and the feedback collection is very easy.

Inconvénients :

Envoy has easy functions and very easy to configure the features and training is very short learning curve and effective support.

Like the software but am disappointed in the Customer Service after purchase

Commentaires : In the sales process, we were told it took 2 hours to set up. It took much longer than that. Now that I have worked with it, it might take me 2 hours. The set up time should be qualified - 2 hours for advanced techies, longer for beginners. It gave us inaccurate expectations about setup.
Once we went live, we had 2 weeks were the system worked great. Of course there was training to communicate to staff what to expect and how to update their notifications. One big selling point for us was phone notifications. We have about 4 hotlines that ring on multiple extensions. Very important for a quick response to the visitor in the lobby since we don't have a receptionist. Phone notifications stopped working after 2 weeks. It took 7 weeks for Twilio and our phone expert to figure out the issue - which was a software issue. For weeks we were brushed off that the software was working correctly and it was our phone system issue. I do like the software but have been disappointed in customer service post purchase.

Avantages :

I like the notification choices available for each user, the photos and the badge printing.

Inconvénients :

I would love to have three of our workflows that can be programmed to call a specific number without entering the name of the department. Ex. Member Services visitor has to type in Member Services after selecting Member Services. For a particular staff, I see the advantage to typing in a name for a number. But we have 3 workflows that go to a specific Department. I would like to have the access to note that listing ones email when signing in is optional. That has been a stopper for some of our visitors. Other questions I added I had access to list as optional. It is not intuitive to some visitors that they have to select the name for the system to recognize it. Might be nice to somehow direct them to the process. Is it possible to have a Chat to help people that are not techy - for the offices that do not have a receptionist in the lobby?

As a long time receptionist I find this software to be an invaluable time saver.

Commentaires : The stress of having multiple visitors, delivery vendors, ringing telephones and employees at reception with questions all at the same time was lessened, it didn't disappear; it just took one thing off the multi-tasking plate required to do the job well. I was able to quickly see at a glance what visitors were in the building. Following up with employees to collect their visitors was easier.

Avantages :

Having been a Corporate Receptionist at other companies I have found this product to make the task of registering visitors unbelievably helpful. Visitors enter their own name into a system which then prints the badge and automatically notifies the employees. No more complaints about having misspelled a name or not notified an employee. We also use the photo function which makes it very easy for our employees to identify their visitor when collecting them from reception. Our clients are also impressed with our high tech sign in process.

Inconvénients :

The software itself leaves little to be desired. It has been well thought out. Our issues have been with employees not receiving the notification emails in their inbox. The junk filter on email software will place the email in junk or spam folder. Clearly explaining this issue to employees would save some frustration.

Danfoss MKE

Commentaires : Seems to run smoothly

Avantages :

The history log data as well as guest/visitor sign in. A lot of visitors are WOW'd about the Envoy.

Inconvénients :

None so far. I do have an idea if your software already does this , please disregard. We can invite visitors prior to there arrival thru the Envoy system. As a Sr. Maintenance/Facilities associate i have to be sure contractors/vendors view our safety documentation for Danfoss before entering our facility. Is there an all inclusive type Invite that we can tailor to my needs? The COD is covered while they are signing in as well as COVID related items. If its a new contractor/visitor they must review the Danfoss safety on the shop floor as well as our Env. policy. I need to keep documentation that they have reviewed this for audit purposes. We have this in a power point format that they review when there on site, I would like to send like I stated prior an all inclusive invite . Thank you, Gary Oldenburg

Envoy Visitors rocks!

Commentaires : We use this to sign in candidates who interview with our company. It is an easy effective way to alert us of someone coming onsite. We also upload our NDA and they are able to sign it easily. We use it for people to come in for meetings as well.

Avantages :

This product is very easy to use. There are a few functions that make it particularly useful for my job. I am able to add it directly to invitations and I also add people in daily. I have never had any complaints about the product. That is saying something!

Inconvénients :

I can see how COVID-19 would affect this product and the use of it. I know you are in development with some new software, so it will be interesting to see the new integrations and updates when we return to the office. One option to expand is in regards to the notifications settings. It would be great to have the interviewer AND the coordinator informed when a candidate is onsite. This would alleviate us needing to notify them that someone arrived. If this is a current feature, I am unaware of how to use it in this way.

Instrumental in our Return to Office Strategy

Commentaires : Overall, we've been able to streamline our visitor experience which now includes our own employees. We truly would not have been able to return to our offices as quickly as we did if it wasn't for this product.

Avantages :

The employee experience is great. Our employees use the Envoy mobile app to complete their health survey in order to work in our offices through the Envoy Protect product, which is built into Visitors. The core Visitors functionality and Packages functionality is second to none. We have five offices across the country and would not be able to handle our influx of visitors without this product.

Inconvénients :

We realize that the Envoy Protect feature is fairly new, but there is a bit of a steep learning curve in order to use the product in a robust way. There are also limitations with the core Visitors product, but they are in no way a hinderance in using the tool successfully within our organization.

Envoy review

Commentaires : Our overall experience has been good. I would recommend Envoy if you need to keep track of who enters your facility, especially if there are documents to be signed before they can enter. It is very convenient for returning visitors as well because it will remember them for 1 year and they can quickly and easily sign in with just their email.

Avantages :

We switched to the Envoy system a few years ago and have been very happy with it. I am able to see who is currently in the building as a visitor and it keeps a record of the visits. It was easy to add our own personal documents that need to be signed by visitors (non disclosure agreement and a safety briefing for contractors.)

Inconvénients :

The printer is the only thing I have had an issue with and I think that is separate from your system. The roll of labels has gotten jammed a few times but was able to be fixed.

Envoy has been a huge asset to my office. Easy to use and looks nice and professional.

Avantages :

The UI is simple and clean, and for the most part, it is easy to use right out of the box. I also love the option to design and order custom badges with our own company branding on them, as an upgrade from the standard printed name badges. Envoy makes signing our visitors in much smoother and more professional with the digital interface. (Especially for a company in the tech/production industries.)

Inconvénients :

I tun into issues with the badge printer pretty often, so I'll have to hit up the troubleshooting section of the site a lot. The troubleshooting guide does usually help me solve my problems, though. There have only been a few instances where I've had to reach out to Envoy support or to my company's internal IT team for additional support on weird issues. One more con is that I wish we could have a little more control of the look of the iPad app, but that's not the biggest deal. The home screen and sign in pages still look great as they are.

Everything you've been looking for

Avantages :

Seamless integration to your everyday visitor process. Extensive set of plugins for the most popular 3rd party applications. We were able to link in our Wi-Fi for syncing guest credentials without needing to hire a web app developer! Same with the door access control system to include a log entry with temporary credentials upon visitor registration and check-in. The setup of the software is intuitive, and includes helpful hints along the way with why a specific setting is used. HR managers, and Front desk staff can have this product up and running in a matter of hours with little to no IT assistance unless they are looking for 3rd party integrations. The user experience is descriptive and not overly intrusive. The technical support representative who assisted us in correcting some errors in our security software were helpful, responsive, and even through it was a 3rd party system, they were knowledgeable enough to get it linked in to Envoy and didn't push off to the 3rd party to troubleshoot.

Inconvénients :

As with all good software, there is a premium price tag that comes along with this product. The software does include all you would need in a visitor management software. Other than the price of the product we have found it to be all inclusive and they have released at 2 other major feature updates; "Protect and Rooms included in the premium subscription at no extra cost.

Give Envoy a try and watch your front desk woes melt away!

Commentaires : Anyone who works in operations will agree that there simply aren't enough hours in the day to get to everything. The job gets done with constant reprioritization of to-dos and a lot of hustling, but it would be a heck of a lot easier if I could be everywhere all at once. I am a proud Envoy customer, because the product and service that they provide enables me to do just that. It's hard to quantify how much time, energy, and stress Envoy has spared me, but the dividends are certainly shared by all - our guests, my employees, and yours truly. Give Envoy a try and watch your front desk woes melt away! You'll be glad you did.

Avantages :

Set up doesn't take more than a few minutes. The default interface is simple, intuitive, and visually pleasing, but there is a ton of opportunity for customization and integration for anyone who wants it. Envoy's customer support is ALWAYS there to assist me live on the portal.

Inconvénients :

I frequently have to troubleshoot the wireless badge printer that came with my Envoy bundle, but outside of that I'm very pleased.

Envoy just works.

Avantages :

Envoy is simple for our visitors to use. This is important to us because we routinely have anywhere from 10 to 100 customers in the building. Tracking who is in the building helps our Project Managers keep track of their customers. Being able to export visitor logs is also very helpful in case of an emergency or for reporting. Overall, we have had a great experience using Envoy and is leaps and bounds better than having a physical (paper) visitor sign-in sheet.

Inconvénients :

Very little to complain about, but sometimes the iPad goes offline and when it comes back online the syncing is not immediate. The landscape mode for signing in could use some improvement. Some of the fields are hidden below the keyboard which can cause confusion. A dual or two column sign in for landscape would be a great addition.

Beautiful user interface with strong integrations

Commentaires : beautiful, modern front-desk check-in system

Avantages :

User interface design -- for both the end user and the admin -- is modern and simple to use. No training needed. The portfolio of integrations -- with things like Microsoft AD, Box (for storing signed NDAs), Skype for Business (for chat-based alerts of people's arrival), and on and on -- is very strong.

Inconvénients :

The pricing for the top tier (the plan with the most integrations) is slightly high when compared to our monthly investment in other marketing and office technology providers. It is still priced competitively for what it does, but if I had to pick a "like least" price is the easiest.

Redefining the first point of engagement for guests into our business!

Commentaires : The front desk. The place that not only makes your businesses first impression on the client/guest, but shows your intentions as a company. You can define yourself in the lobby/waiting area with simple things, art on the walls, the carpet, the furniture. But that is all a waste of time if your visitor greeting process is leaving something to be desired it can lower the visitors expectations dramatically. Envoy leaves nothing to be desired. Seamlessly integrated into our reception team its features are first class. Not only does it make the job of our team on reception easier, with features like pre registered guests, NDA signing and much more, these features show the customer that we are welcoming them in and greet them appropriately. Its brilliant.

Avantages :

Everything! so many features!!

Inconvénients :

I have absolutely nothing to complain about, minor issues are always fixed fantastically fast by the support team!

Envoy Visitor and Badge printing system

Commentaires : Overall, the system has worked well for us. We have three iPad locations at three different entrances. Multiple sites are using the Envoy system.

Avantages :

Digital visitor log, instead of paper visitor log. Email to employee when a visitor arrives (receptionist does not need to do this). Visitors sign an NDA and that they have no COVID symptoms when they arrive, and this is stored. A photo of the visitor is taken. The configuration of the system is easy and flexible. A visitor log can easily be exported to an Excel file.

Inconvénients :

There could be many more features than there currently are. I assume that as Envoy matures, more features will be added and included in the basic system.

Keep track of what matters

Commentaires : Customer service was very friendly, implementation was easy and my rep continues to help us if we get stuck.

Avantages :

Envoy dose an amazing job of helping us keep track of what matters most “people”. Our old dog in process was clumsy and not efficient. HIPAA was always a concern and accidentally shredding the wrong documents is now a thing of the past. We know every person has signed in and had has signed the right documents.

Inconvénients :

This software is not designed to be used the way we are but we make it work. The biggest thing I would love to be able to do is have auto sign outs assigned by sign in group rather than across the board. Also being able to edit a members visit without going in the back in of the program. Counts that’s show how many people are sign in to each type of log in group would also be nice. Admin needs an app on the iPad.

Great for everyday use!

Commentaires : Checking historical occupancy has been handy when we need to look at a specific date and to see who came into the office. Visitors are receptive to completing the check in.

Avantages :

Favourite features are visitors sign in and employee registration for screening and contact tracing during COVID19.

Inconvénients :

Sometimes set up or customization can be a bit challenging but support is quick and responsive.
