Genetec Access Control Management and Sign In App

Solutions

Access control management starts at the front door

True access control requires knowing who is actually on site right now, not just who had access. You might already manage access control with Genetec, but if staff arrival, attendance, and on-site visibility live somewhere, you could have costly gaps:

No reliable “who’s on site right now?” view
Manual sign-ins slowing down busy entrances
Harder roll calls during evacuations
More admin for shifts, contractors, and multi-site teams

Why Paxton with Sign In App Tap is a great fit

Genetec Security Center provides powerful, unified access control - but access control management requires more than door events. You also need to know:

Who is physically on site right now
Whether employees actually entered (not just opened a door)
Accurate counts for evacuations and emergency response
A unified presence log across multiple buildings or campuses

With Sign In App Tap, employees use the same HID, MIFARE, or Prox cards they already use with Genetec Security Center to sign in and out instantly at an iPad kiosk.

Leveraging Sign In App Tap and Genetec, you get:

Instant staff sign-in using Genetec credentials

Accurate, real-time on-site list for safety and operations

Consistent multi-site sign-in with centralized reporting

Evacuation readiness with up-to-date roll calls
