Evacuations & Emergency Management

Inaccurate data in an emergency puts people at risk

In many organizations, evacuation processes break down when they’re needed most:

Paper sign-in sheets are incomplete
Different teams work from different lists
Headcounts take too long to complete
There’s no clear record of what happened

This creates confusion at exactly the wrong moment. A visitor management system fixes this. Evacuation lists are created automatically from live sign-in data, shared across devices, and updated as people are accounted for.

Smarter visibility. Faster response.

Full accountability for everyone on-site

Know exactly who’s in the building - visitors, employees, contractors, and students - with automatic roll calls built from real-time sign-in data.

Multi-device, real-time coordination

Run evacuations from any mobile device or browser. Every update syncs instantly across all responders, keeping teams aligned.

Organized evacuation points

Group people into clear evacuation points and assign them automatically - with each visitor seeing their designated point at sign-in.

Search, filter, and locate instantly

Find any person, team, or group in seconds - essential for large sites and high-trust environments.

We were forced to evacuate our school, in a somewhat rapid manner, due to the LA wildfires earlier this year. Sign In App provided us with confidence that we had everybody safely off of campus. Sign In App actually did save lives.
