COMPARE

vFound vs Envoy Visitors

Envoy Visitors and vFound serve different desk requirements. Envoy Visitors documents pre-registration with an emailed QR and assessments with correct answers and validity periods. vFound Visitors supports invitations, QR passes and staff sign-in controls, but its questions and agreements are not a scored induction assessment.

We publish vFound. This is a review of the linked public documentation, not an independent hands-on test of Envoy Visitors. Confirm the required tier, hardware and full price with each provider.

Try the actual desk journey

vFound does not automate ID verification or provide a scored induction assessment. Its roll call covers visitors, not an employee attendance register.

A contractor keeps one pass for the length of the job. It repeats on weekdays.

Invite a fictional contractor, open the QR pass and complete sign-in at a paired browser kiosk. Check the host notice and desk status.
Start a visitor roll call and mark that fictional visitor accounted for. Confirm who must handle employees and people outside the visitor register.

Use fictional sample records for rehearsal. This screen illustrates vFound, not the other product.

Illustrative workflow using synthetic sample data.

Plan a careful switch from Envoy Visitors

Keep the original evidence under your venue’s retention policy. Verify the destination records before retiring the old system; no one-click migration is promised.

Ask Envoy which employee, host and visitor exports your role permits. Retain signed agreements and historical visitor records privately; do not assume agreements transfer.
Preview a synthetic host list in vFound People, configure visitor types and try an invitation. Rebuild questions, approval rules and badge settings rather than copying private links.
Set a cutover time, close or reconcile open visits and reissue future invitations where needed. Old Envoy QR passes are not vFound passes.
