iVisit Touchscreen Solutions - Benefits of self-service and 247 Access for Visitor Centres
I remember back when I was a little whipper snapper going on a long road trip with the folks. This wasn't just a couple of hours in the car either, no this was a full week driving across the Nullarbor plane and through more little towns than I could even name. Yep you guess it, my parents drove me and my brother from Sydney to Perth and back. Aside from the 12 hours per day of scenery consisting of nothing but open road, cows, paddocks, fences and the back of my eyelids one thing I remember from that trip were the numerous petrol stops along the way. At each, we would stop and my dad would wait for the service station attendant to come out and fill up our tank himself. Many times we would fill up and pay without even leaving the car.
How times have changed. Since driving myself, I've rarely seen a service station attendant leave his cash register let alone come out to fill up my tank. It's little things like this which make me realise that society as a whole is changing. It is changing to a world where people are willing to embrace self service... in fact, I'd almost go as far as to say people are coming to expect it. You see it at airports, in shopping centres, in grocery stores, at self service car washes, and in particular mega franchise outlets like McDonalds and Woolworths and pretty much any Bank in Australia.
There are many reasons why self service has become so mainstream, here are some off the top of my head:
- Society is becoming more technologically aware
- Can save time during busy periods
- Is cost effective to businesses
- Can provide afterhours access
- Can provide access from remote locations
- Can provide comprehensive information quickly
Let's face it, there's also that special feeling of personal satisfaction that comes with DIY
iVisit is another stage in this evolutionary process. It provides Visitor Information Centres with a comprehensive self service touch-screen system that offers all of the benefits listed above plus many more. Find out more at http://www.ivisit-touchscreen.com.au
Benefits of 24/7 Information Access
You are heading down from Sydney to Victoria around Christmas time for a business meeting knowing full well that it is going to be a hectic trip. Cars are speeding left right and centre, traffic jams and general driver road rage are just a few of the many obstacles you encounter along the way. After much persistence and frustration you manage to fight through all the hubbub and finally reach your destination, probably much later than expected.
You are in need of a place to relax, unwind and rest before you get up early for your business meeting the next morning but you are unfamiliar with your destination. Naturally your first stop is the local Visitor Information Centre to help find some cosy accommodation. You know it's late but surely the Visitor Information Centre is still open... or at least there has to be some way of getting the information you need.
You reach the Visitor Information Centre and much to your disappointment after such a frustrating trip, it is closed but then something catches your eye. Pressed up against the window right next to the front door is a nice shiny screen branded 'iVisit.' You touch the glass and the screen comes to life. It responds instantly to your commands and you figure out very quickly that this self service touch-screen has the exact information you need.
