Aiven vs. Lobbytrack

Aiven is well suited for medium/big companies where the reliability for events coming in is imperative and choose to use Kafka but would like to avoid the most complex parts of the integration and instead have an easy setup. It is less suited in my opinion for smaller companies, mainly due to its pricing.

I think that Lobbytrack would be suited for most organizations that are trying to modernize their visitor management workflow. You would need someone with a technical background to make the most of the Lobbytrack feature-set, but you can get the core functionality of the system up and running fairly quickly. The product might be less desirable for an organization where compliance and security is a critical priority, as features like their SSO integration still needs to mature.

• Sign in visitors with Name Phone number their identity.
• It notifies the host.
• It can also pre register the visitor and also to immediate registration.
• Control access and photo identity.

• Scheduled reports (instead of run on demand).
• Published API and/or an automated way of loading data to the database (it's not difficult but could be automated).
• Updating layout of printed labels is not very intuitive (but we only have to do it rarely).

Lobby track has proved to be cost-efficient and at the same time, this is also multi-tasking where each and every step and user interface is very easy to use. Even the visitors can self-register themselves and need not wait for the other person to do an entry. Plus the biggest advantage that we have observed is the final report which helps us to create a database.

• Did not use it for my business, but rather as a user. Worked great, will implement in my business when we need guest management software.
