Greetly is a full digital receptionist: kiosk apps, voice and text notifications, ID scanning and a digital mailroom, now part of OfficeSpace. frontkiosk is narrower on purpose. It runs in a browser tab, has a one-time lifetime plan, and includes the evacuation list and badges on every plan.

Small offices, clinics, law and accounting firms, property management offices and coworking spaces that use Greetly, or are looking at it, and only need the basics: guests sign in, the host gets told, a badge prints, and you know who is in the building during a fire drill.
There is nothing to install. Open your location’s kiosk link in Chrome, Safari or Edge on a tablet or laptop you already own.
Greetly figures are from greetly.com/pricing, checked October 16, 2026. frontkiosk figures are our current public pricing.
Competitor prices come from their public pricing page and can change. Greetly’s pricing page does not say whether its prices are per location. frontkiosk is not affiliated with Greetly or OfficeSpace.
The day-to-day visitor workflows a small front desk needs.
Pick a plan, check out, create your account, then open the kiosk link. No app store, no MDM profile.
Name badges with a sign-out QR on Brother QL, Dymo, thermal or office printers. No upgrade needed.
Pay once: $250 for a location, yours for life. Or monthly at $29 per location, with no annual contract.
Everyone signed in shows on a live on-site list you can print as a roll call during a fire drill.
Show a visitor policy or NDA and capture a finger signature with each visit.
Search visits and export them for audits.
Where Greetly wins: notification channels (voice, text, Google Chat, Teams and Slack out of the box), ID and driver’s license scanning, a digital mailroom, multilingual check-in and 24/7 support. If your front desk handles deliveries, ID checks or high traffic, Greetly covers more of it.
Where frontkiosk wins: nothing to install, monthly billing or a one-time lifetime plan, and badges plus an evacuation roll call on every plan, for a small office that only needs visitor sign-in, host alerts, badges and an evacuation list.
