JYL Visitor

What JYL Visitor is

JYL Visitor digitises workplace visitor check-in, from registration at reception to host notification and visitor records. Visitors can register and receive a printed pass, while the employee they are visiting is notified by email. The digital log stores names, companies, hosts, and visit dates and times. Photo capture is optional for personalised passes, and visitor lists can be exported as CSV or PDF for compliance reporting. Staff can view visit history and statistics from any web browser. Visitors can also scan a QR code with a smartphone to check in and out without a reception computer or tablet. The software runs on Windows PCs and can be used across multiple reception workstations on a local network; badge printing requires a standard printer. Its product page says visitor data is encrypted, stored securely locally, and automatically deleted after the statutory period. JYL Visitor offers a 15-day trial without a credit card. Paid options include €9/month, €90/year and €590, with a lifetime licence listed for the €590 Full plan. JYL Software is based in Plougastel, France.

Verdict
