UNCW Sign-In System
In today’s green economy departments are moving away from paper logs and moving to more modern electronic logging systems. The UNCW Sign-In System is a sophisticated and easy to use solution for those offices looking to modernize their check-in process. This system was specifically created in order to facilitate keeping track of individuals visiting your office or attending your event.
Types of Sign-In Systems:
- Advanced: An advanced system is meant for an office setting in which you would take notes, assign individuals to staff and view further details about a student.
- Basic: A basic event system allows you to keep a basic record of who attended an event you hosted.
Basic Features of Sign-In System:
- Check In / Check Out – A basic timestamp is created when someone signs in or out of a station.
- Desktop Notification – Individuals who sign into your system can be assigned to staff members who can view information such as history, notes and basic information. A photo is also available to help with identification.
- Email Receipt – After someone has signed in or out of the system, an email receipt can be generated. This receipt can be customized and can contain a link to an online survey.
- Email Notification – A notification email can be sent to an email address each time a person signs into a system.
- Basic Reporting – The system supports a few basic reports which can be exported to Microsoft Excel.
- Photo Verification – A photo of the person signing into a system appears so that you can quickly identify them.
- Print Name Badge – The system supports name badge printing through the use of the Dymo Label printer.
