Envoy is a strong visitor platform for large workplaces. If you need badges, NDAs, host alerts and a visitor log without a native tablet app or a multi-hundred-dollar monthly bill, Front Desk is built for that.
Teams that like what Envoy does — sign-in on a tablet, photo, badge, host ping, evacuation list — but do not need Envoy’s full workplace suite, multi-building rollout, or Premium pricing.
Front Desk is a good fit for small offices, schools, clinics, coworking spaces and multi-site teams that want a simple kiosk link. It runs in any browser on an iPad, Android or Fire tablet, Chromebook or old laptop. No native app to install or update.
Prices as published by Envoy (checked Sep 2026). Front Desk figures are our current public pricing.
Competitor prices come from their public pricing pages and may change. Front Desk is not affiliated with Envoy.
The day-to-day visitor workflows most small sites need.
Open a link, add to home screen. Works on common tablets and laptops without an app store install.
Show a visitor policy or NDA and capture a finger signature with each visit.
Name badges with a sign-out QR on Brother QL, Dymo, thermal or office printers.
Email hosts when someone arrives; optional Slack, Teams or Zapier via webhook.
See who is on site and print a roll-call list in one click.
Search visits and export for audits, safeguarding or billing.
Choose Envoy if you need deep workplace integrations, a large-enterprise rollout, or features beyond visitor sign-in that sit in Envoy’s wider product. Front Desk focuses on visitor management for smaller teams and does not try to replace a full workplace platform.
