colada redefines event scanning: efficiency without app constraints

In the modern event industry, pen and paper are a thing of the past. Check-in is done by scan – the quicker and less complicated, the better. Organizers need to ensure that visitors are registered, are present and have access to certain areas if necessary. However, previous solutions are often cumbersome: devices have to be organized, apps downloaded and users trained, and there is hardly any flexibility for individual workflows.

colada’s new technology radically simplifies things: no extra scanning devices, no app downloads, no complicated navigation, no technical hurdles for users. Instead, the system relies on a centrally controlled, limitless scanning solution.

The challenges of previous systems

Traditional scanning solutions often reach their limits in practice:

• App compulsion: Downloading an app is often not possible or desired in a business environment. In addition, a pre-configured device must be provided for each person.
• Complexity: Hostesses and users often need to be trained, as apps offer numerous additional functions that distract from the actual scanning.
• Decentralized planning: The scanners are often not flexibly adaptable and require dedicated preparation.
• Lack of workflow customization: Many scanners do not offer options for different usage scenarios within an event.
• Security problems: In many cases, special hardware must be rented in order to meet security requirements.

The wishes of the event organizers

Organizers demand a simple, flexible and secure solution:

• Minimal effort: Scanning should be possible without large external resources.
• Use your own devices: Hostesses and helpers should be able to use their own smartphones without any security risk.
• Maximum security: No unencrypted data may be stored on the devices.
• Central control: It must be possible to control the service from a central location and deactivate it immediately if necessary.

The solution: colada.assistant – smart QR code scanners

With colada.assistant, Colada offers a revolutionary scanning technology that meets these challenges. Back office planners can create any number of virtual scanners with different configurations and distribute them via QR code or link. This gives them full control:

• Who scans
• When and where to scan
• Which authorizations apply
• How workflows can be customized

Dynamic adaptation and maximum efficiency

Another highlight: processes and authorizations can be adjusted in real time during the event. Organizers remain flexible and can react immediately to spontaneous changes.

Anyone who values efficient, secure and flexible scanning is ideally positioned with colada. No more complicated apps – welcome to the new world of event scanning!
