JYL Visitor vs Sine

JYL Visitor digitises workplace visitor check-in. Visitors can register at reception and receive a printed pass, while the employee they are visiting gets an email notification when they arrive. Its log records names, companies, hosts, and visit dates and times. Registration can include an optional photo for personalised passes, and visitors can instead scan a QR code on a smartphone to check in and out without a reception PC or tablet. Staff can export visitor lists as CSV or PDF for compliance reporting and view history and statistics in a web browser. The software runs on Windows PCs and can serve multiple reception workstations on a local network; printing badges requires a standard printer. The product page says visitor data is encrypted, stored securely locally, and automatically deleted after the statutory period. There is no free plan, but a 15-day trial is offered without a credit card. Standard costs €9/month, Advance costs €90/year, and Full costs €590 as a one-time price.

Sine provides visitor, contractor, staff, and compliance management for facilities. Sine Core supports customized check-in flows, electronic entry documents, and branded kiosks. Contractor tools cover onboarding, inductions, permits, certifications, and compliance records, while the activity dashboard shows expected arrivals, people on site, and searchable check-in history. The Sine Pro mobile app adds nearby-site check-in with geofencing, QR codes, visitor notifications, and mobile badge printing. Listed integrations include Microsoft Teams, Slack, Outlook, Entra ID, Eventbrite, Gallagher, Honeywell EBI, Cm3, and webhooks. Plans are based on estimated check-in volume, include unlimited hosts, and apply a fair usage policy if use exceeds the plan level. Small through Large plans start with a 30-day free trial; Sine contacts customers with billing information after it ends. The paid service has no free plan, though the Sine Pro mobile app is listed at free. Sine says it uses AWS infrastructure, encrypts data in transit, conducts regular audits and penetration tests, and complies with GDPR requirements.
