Our 7 Most Asked Questions !

Q.  Does the price cover everyone or are we charged for each user?    The one time cost covers everyone at your physical location.  There are no hidden charges or monthly fees!  A free reminder is included that will check individuals back in automatically!

Q.  How does it work?  Download and install the program into a folder on your network.  Then simply install the shortcut on everyone's computer to access the in/out board with.   Employees will then be able to sign themselves in and out using their office computer!

Your receptionist(s) will have a list of everyone's in/out status on his or her screen that will always be current.  He or she can also sign individuals in and out.  It is perfect for any size office!

Q.  What are the system requirements?    The program will run on any network (even simple peer-to-peer small office networks).  Users should have a version of Windows operating system (Windows 98 / XP / Vista / 2000 / Windows 7, etc.) on their computer ... 32 bit or the newer 64 bit operating systems.    Nothing to install on the workstations other than a shortcut to the program!  No files are shared with any other programs.  Safe and ideal for any size office!

Q.  Do you have a web based version?   No!    Because of  increasing internet security issues we feel employee information should not be made public.   Everyone's in/out status should remain on your company's network.    With our 'Check-In Check-Out' program you own the program and the data!

Q.  Can we have more than 1 receptionist?  Sure!   Optimally you'll want to have no more than 2 or 3 individuals accessing the "Receptionist" or control program ... most individuals will be accessing their personal in/out screen that displays their name at the top automatically (it also has a summary screen much like the "Receptionist" main screen) as shown in our online animated demo!

   If you have individuals sharing a computer they can still bring up their personal in/out program! 

Q.  Why not use different colors for each in/out status?  No!   Different colors look great for a short while.  Multiple colors create a "busy" screen causing fatigue for anyone viewing it for long periods of time.  With our dual color summary screen,  a quick glance is all that is needed to determine which individuals are in or out.  Our "Professional" and "Enterprise" versions allow you the option of changing screen colors !

Q.  Can we customize the event choices ('Vacation', 'Lunch', 'In Meeting', etc.) ?   Yes!   You can easily customize the event titles, a great tool for adapting the program to your company's needs!   Watch our online demo!
