DigiGreet is always adding new and innovative features to its visitor management system and we wanted to allow businesses and schools to create a more secure, safe, and supportive environment for all its visitors, staff, and contractors. We had a think about this and DigiGreet Samaritan was born...

Not only does the system is offer more value to businesses and schools than the main existing supplier, but the DigiGreet visitor management solution is also ensuring that it is the only system businesses and schools need for ensuring a great visitor experience and holistic security approach encompassing visitor management, lockdown alarm and panic button software.

In this article, we will discuss the overview of the lockdown alert system feature offered by DigiGreet Samaritan. 

This DigiGreet Samaritan feature is aimed at an emergency such as a lockdown situation where there is an external threat, or an SOS panic button situation where there is an internal threat in the office or school premises.

Overview of the DigiGreet Samaritan Lockdown Alert System

Using the lockdown DigiGreet Samaritan feature, anyone can communicate that there is a lockdown situation simply by pressing the lockdown panic button. Once the panic button is pressed, the alarm sounds and it will also send a lockdown instruction pop-up message on other computer devices.

The lockdown panic button is often all that is needed to alert key personnel of the need to lockdown and allows schools and businesses to ensure they are protected.

Overview of the DigiGreet Samaritan SOS Alert System

Using the SOS DigiGreet Samaritan feature, anyone can communicate that there is a personnel threat simply by pressing the SOS panic button. Once the panic button is pressed, the alarm sounds and it will send a request for support pop-up message to other computer devices. Other staff can respond to indicate they are on their way to help and other staff will see these acknowledgements.

The SOS panic button is often all that is needed to alert key personnel of the need to support their colleague and allows schools and businesses to ensure they are protecting their staff and help prevent a situation from getting out of hand.

The DigiGreet Samaritan alert system is one of the features that will ensure everyone gets the right direction for the various potential scenarios, thereby ensuring everyone is safe in times of emergencies in the office or school premises.

As you probably know, the DigiGreet visitor management system has a lot of other features to offer as well, apart from the DigiGreet Samaritan feature. Some of the most notable features offered by the DigiGreet system include integration with Paxton Net 2 access control system, opening doors with QR codes, pre-registration, asset management, checking covid passes, and several others. The best thing is all of these features are available at competitive prices in a fully featured package.
