Ident-A-Kid Provides Schools Free Software Feature to Track Student, Staff, and Volunteer Activities Remotely During School Closures From COVID-19

    ST. PETERSBURG, FL, June 03, 2020 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Ident-A-Kid, a company that specializes in providing school visitor management systems, has released a new feature that allows their customers to track student, staff, volunteer activities, and more remotely on any device while schools are closed due to COVID-19. The new feature, called Remote-Links, is free to all of their customers regardless of their licensing level. Remote-Links was designed for schools to track activities such as staff hours, student homework assignments, equipment loaners, and meal deliveries.

The iVisitor Management system from Ident-A-Kid is used in schools across the country to track activities like visitors and volunteers entering campus, tardy students, early dismissals, and staff hours. It is also used to screen visitors against the national sex offender registry and a school or district's custom banned person list before they're allowed to enter the campus. With school buildings closed, Ident-A-Kid developed its Remote-Links feature to track all the important activities schools still need to track.

"It took less than five minutes to set up, and we've been using it to track at home employees and on-campus custodial staff. We go to our phones, click the link and it's so easy. It makes it easy to submit for payroll, we love it!" says Ms. Capers, School Treasurer at Gillespie Park Elementary of Greensboro, North Carolina.

"Even though school buildings are closed, we knew our customers would still need a way to track their activities. It was important for us to provide a solution that is easy-to-use, quick to deploy, customizable, and keeps accurate records of all activities. Remote-Links is just that. Many customers are even planning to utilize this for the upcoming school year as they adopt CDC recommendations to go touchless while enforcing security practices," says Emily Fellouzis, Chief Operating Officer for Ident-A-Kid.

Schools and districts wanting to learn more about the iVisitor Management System and Remote-Links can call 800-890-1000 option 4 or email [email protected].
