An office reception does several jobs at once. Visitors arrive in clusters just before the hour, a courier needs a signature, the phone rings and someone has to find the host. Often the desk is staffed for only part of the day, or shared between tenants.
Further inside, meeting rooms are double-booked or sit empty because nobody can see what is free, and company news sent by email is skimmed or missed.
A check-in point, door-side displays and lobby screens handle these routine jobs. Choosing the hardware is the simple part. What it connects to is scoped with you, as our check-in page explains.
