EntryWatch vs a paper visitor book

A paper sign-in book is cheap to start but slow, unreadable, unsecure and useless in an emergency. Here is how a digital sign-in compares.

	EntryWatch	paper visitor book
Speed	Self-service in seconds on a kiosk or mobile QR.	Handwriting name, company and time by hand.
Privacy	Each entry is private to your organisation.	Every visitor can read the names above theirs.
Evacuation	One-tap live roll-call on any device.	Someone has to grab the book and read it in the rain.
Who is on site now	Always-current live list.	Impossible — the book only shows arrivals, not who has left.
Host notifications	Host told automatically on arrival.	Reception phones around to find them.
Inductions & agreements	Signed digitally, recorded against the person.	Separate paperwork, if it happens at all.
Records & audit	Searchable, exportable, retained to policy.	A box of books nobody can search.
Cost	Free until 2027 for founding customers.	Cheap book, expensive risk.
