A Robust System

Send customized "text blasts" or individual messages to not only your visitors, but also internal staff / departments as well.

Facility with multiple employees and visitors show that all can receive notifications from LobbyFox

With LobbyFox’s super advanced notification editor, you can easily build and edit your notifications on the fly.

Use placeholder text to dynamically represent things like your visitor’s name, number, company, and even configure your notification emails to let your hosts know which kiosk a visitor has checked in on.

Use an endless number of custom triggers to tell LobbyFox the precise circumstances when a notification needs to go out, and who those notifications need to go to. Send your executive assistant a notification when a visitor checks in to see a C-Level Executive. Notify an entire department if a contractor arrives. Email your HR manager when a visitor has passed their safety screening. The possibilities are endless!

Historically speaking, there’s never been a great way for administrators to disseminate information to visitors short of physically finding them, or making an announcement over the PA. This is no more.

LobbyFox easily allows platform administrators to send text blasts to all visitors at once, or even directly to individuals from the Visitor Information Center.

Inform all your visitors that the facility is closing soon, and that they should make their way back to the front office. Text a visitor to let them know that their service work has been completed. Ping a visitor to let them know their documents are ready. Instantly notify a truck driver in a holding lot that you're ready for them at the dock. You can also include your employees and/or specific departments in these text blasts.

LobbyFox alerts go above and beyond the host-visitor relationship. Years ago we recognized the need for departmental and employee notifications that may or may not have anything to do with visitors. The LobbyFox notification editor makes it easy to schedule or instantly send text notifications to anyone including departments, individual employees, or visitors. LobbyFox can send texts to your employees even if they don’t receive visitors and aren’t a host in the kiosk.

Many LobbyFox customers use trigger notifications to inform management when a key customer or vendor arrives at the facility, or to notify health and safety personnel when regulators arrive to perform an audit. HR and safety departments love to use this feature to remind employees of upcoming training and benefit alerts.

Though it’s not a feature anyone wants to have to use, it’s a feature that can be a lifesaver when you need it most.

The LobbyFox platform allows administrators to quickly and securely send out text blasts to all visitors and employees during an emergency situation, right from the main dashboard. And because we know time can be of the essence in crisis situations, LobbyFox also allows you to pre-configure text blast templates for any number of emergency situations.

Organizing incoming office deliveries can be a huge hassle. With drop-off notifications, LobbyFox can help you avoid pile-ups and make deliveries more manageable. When a visitor enters your lobby to drop off food or a package, they can simply select the drop-off button, type in the name of the recipient, and they’ll be good to go!

When a delivery arrives for an employee, they will receive a notification whether they are on-site or at home. This makes it easy for employees to continue working while they wait for food deliveries to arrive and eliminates the need for one employee to locate another. Drop off notifications are a convenient way to make your facility more efficient for both delivery drivers and your employees.

Can I communicate with my visitors through this system?

Behind the scenes, we’ve built a powerful system that administrators can use to communicate with visitors via text message. Text individual visitors, certain visitor types, or everyone currently checked in at your facility!

How does LobbyFox work?

The LobbyFox check-in kiosk couldn’t be easier to use. When a visitor arrives at your facility, the kiosk instructs them to check in by using the touchscreen. LobbyFox asks them who they are, who they’re with, who they’re there to see, and what the nature of their visit is. At that point, a name badge is automatically printed for the guest, and their host (the employee they’re there to see) is notified via email, text, or both that they have a visitor in the lobby.

How hard is this system to set up?

The difference between LobbyFox and other visitor management systems available to you is that–here at LobbyFox–we take care of 100% of system configuration for you. We can even assist you in the customization of your kiosk. All you have to do is plug in the kiosk, and we’ll handle the rest!

Is there an additional fee to be able to use the LobbyFox employee texting feature?

No! This feature is included with every subscription and could even replace a third-party texting platform.

Who has access to send text messages through the kiosk?

Only kiosk administrators have access to send text messages through the kiosk. We recommend that admins bookmark the kiosk login on all of their devices so they can reach it as quickly as possible in the event of an emergency.
