CENTEGIX Enhances Visitor Management for Safer Schools

In a significant move to improve safety protocols in educational institutions, CENTEGIX® announced the expansion of its Visitu Visitor Management capabilities within the CENTEGIX Safety Platform®. This development aligns with CENTEGIX's commitment to creating connected safety solutions tailored for schools, ensuring a secure environment for students, faculty, and visitors alike.

Since the acquisition of Visitu in May 2026, CENTEGIX has centered its efforts on fortifying the visitor management experience. Traditionally, schools have grappled with various manual processes to monitor the movement of students, parents, volunteers, and contractors, which often leads to inefficiencies and potential security risks. With Visitu, CENTEGIX introduces a streamlined digital system that facilitates an efficient visitor check-in process, enhances identification protocols, improves monitoring, and simplifies reporting tasks.

The newly integrated features in the CENTEGIX Safety Platform include:

• - Visitor Locating: Staff can access near real-time locations of authorized visitors and contractors while they are on campus. This advancement extends safety oversight beyond the front office, enabling a proactive approach to visitor management.

• - Visitor Log Reporting: Schools can maintain detailed logs of visitor arrivals and departures, ensuring accountability and facilitating verification post-visit.

• - Expanded System Integrations: By connecting Visitu with existing school systems, CENTEGIX aims to cut down on the manual labor for front office personnel, leading to a more organized visitor management experience.

• - Enhanced Printer Options: The introduction of diverse printing options grants schools more flexibility when it comes to creating visitor passes.

• - New App and Starter Kits: The release of the Visitu Kiosk iPad app and starter kits opens up additional avenues for schools to deploy comprehensive visitor check-in solutions.

Rebecca Furlong, Director of Systems and Operations at Wooster City School District in Ohio, expressed high regard for the changes, stating, "We love Visitu. It's user-friendly, and parents appreciate the robust security features, including text and email notifications."

These enhancements collectively aim to elevate visitor visibility in schools while minimizing administrative burdens and refining everyday visitor management. Brent Cobb, CEO of CENTEGIX, articulated the philosophy underpinning these developments, saying, "School safety doesn't commence only during emergencies; it is an ongoing effort that schools manage throughout the entire day. Our mission is to provide a cohesive approach to safety without overwhelming those responsible for its implementation."

CENTEGIX continuously invests in its safety solutions to address safety concerns during all school activities. The integrated platform not only includes visitor management but also enhances incident response capabilities, digital mapping, and preparedness features, as well as school messaging and emergency management systems. By merging these functions into one cohesive platform, CENTEGIX is poised to tackle the challenges schools face regarding safety and emergency preparedness more effectively.

As Cobb emphasizes, "Safety is not about a singular moment, product, or type of incident. We envision assisting schools to develop a connected safety ecosystem that caters to both daily and extreme scenarios, empowering staff with the tools and information they need when it matters most."
