“Having ALICE in our business lobby has helped improve our customer service. We are able to safely respond to visitors at the door and can even speak to them over the screen to help direct them on where they need to go… This has allowed us to keep staff out of the open lobby and improve security for our office.
ALICE makes the whole visitor to the building experience better for all! It helps us narrow down their needs quicker and allows us still welcome in person guests while not having to take shifts in the lobby watching for the door. A life changer!”
