Personalized check-in that reflects your office. Build an intentional visitor experience with transparent pricing, powerful customization, and Radical Support® from day one.
There are some solid visitor management tools out there, and we respect companies working to improve the check-in experience. But we believe The Receptionist brings something fundamentally different to the table — it's in our DNA. We're a bootstrapped software company that puts people first and believes every feature should be available to every customer.
Beyond the culture and the support, here are clear nuts-and-bolts differences.
All pricing tiers include all features — badge printing, SMS notifications, NDAs, visitor photos, and more. No "nickel-and-diming" for the tools you actually need.
Design visitor badges in minutes — no coding or CSS required. Add your logo, visitor photos, QR codes, and custom expiration dates with a visual editor anyone can use.
Respond to visitors right from your smartphone or computer. Let them know "I'm on my way, sit tight" — creating a warm, professional experience from the very first interaction.
Create custom visitor types and check-in flows for every scenario — deliveries, interviews, contractors, VIPs. Available to ALL customers, not just enterprise tiers.
Full control over background imagery, logos, colors, fonts, and button shapes. Make the check-in experience unmistakably yours and create a powerful first impression.
Beautiful, self-service visitor check-in that's easy for everyone.
SMS, email, Slack, and Teams alerts the moment a visitor arrives.
Collect signatures on custom documents during check-in.
Professional visitor badges printed instantly on check-in.
Connect with Slack, Teams, Zapier, and more out of the box.
Visitor logs, emergency evacuation lists, and audit trails built in.
An acronym representing our core values — and the DNA of our bootstrapped software company.
An extraordinary customer experience isn't just a bullet point on our website — it's a core company value. Every single employee at The Receptionist has support skills. Even our CEO, Andy, jumps on support chats regularly.
You'll never be routed through an endless phone tree or left waiting for a chatbot to understand your issue. Real people. Real help. Every time.
Not chatbots. Not phone trees. Real people who know the product.
Our team is responsive, personal, and genuinely invested in your success.
Every employee — from the CEO down — is trained and ready to help.
Whether you're currently using another visitor management system or shopping for your first — we'd love to show you what makes The Receptionist different.
