THE SOLUTION

THE SOLUTION

We proposed and implemented a digital Visitor management solution for the Client.
Key modules of the solution included;
A Visitor management module to automatically capture to record and control all visitors and service providers
coming in and out

  • Online booking and Check in of short stay Guests (Airbnb Guests)
  • Host self-service (implemented using SOJA Passport Guest Booking App)
  • An appointment management module to simplify appointments management and entry approvals
  • An added security layer (watch list module) to prevent access by blacklisted or unauthorized personnel.

We also implemented custom configurations to enable the Client to directly send emails from the premise address
settings. Another added capability was the ability to share an appointment QR Code to the expected Guest, and the
Host was given the capability to extend/postpone Check out dates of a Guest.
