And, an access route should be defined in software to ensure that the visitor should reach the host directly without wandering across the premises.
Track Visitor Movement in Real-time
Security is expected to keep a track of all the visitors and equipment they carry, Visitor Management should offer a live dashboard, giving a quick overview of all the visitors in a graphical format.
