What is Envoy Visitors?

Envoy Visitors helps users offer a warm welcome for guests while safeguarding people, property, and ideas. Envoy Protect confirms everyone walking through the door is healthy with a health screen before they leave home, touchless sign-in, capacity limits, and contact tracking. Envoy also enables users to print badges, sign legal documents, grant wifi access, and notify hosts.

Envoy also offer products to help buyers not only manage visitors, but also desks, meeting room bookings and deliveries in the office. With the newly launched interactive workplace maps, employees can find and book available desks and rooms, see details when visitors arrive and mark packages from the mailroom as picked up in one view on the mobile app. Envoy helps you design a productive workplace where people want to be with technology that enhances the employee experience.
