🏙️ Why Visitor Verification Is Critical for Societies
In today’s urban societies, unauthorized access is the #1 threat to resident safety. Whether it’s fake deliveries, duplicate entries, or QR scan errors, the wrong system can open the gate to risk.
Most visitor management apps still rely on:
- QR scanning (which can fail in low light or on damaged screens)
- OTPs (which are slow and depend on mobile network)
- Manual name entry (prone to human error)
VantaGate offers a simpler, smarter alternative: 6-digit codes for every visitor and delivery.
Let’s break down the difference.
🧾 1. QR Code Entry – What Goes Wrong?
QR codes seem futuristic—but in reality, they cause frequent problems at the gate:
Common Issues with QR Entry:
- ❌ Screens cracked or too dim to scan
- ❌ Elderly guests don’t have smartphones
- ❌ Visitors forget or don’t receive the code
- ❌ Guards don’t know how to troubleshoot scanning issues
- ❌ Network issues delay QR validation
QR might work in theory, but not always in real-world Indian society conditions.
🔢 2. VantaGate’s Dual 6-Digit Code System – Designed for Real India
VantaGate generates two separate, secure 6-digit codes:
- One for visitors
- One for deliveries (Zomato, Swiggy, Amazon, etc.)
Each code is:
- 🔐 Unique to the resident and type of entry
- 🕒 Time-bound, auto-expiring after use
- 📱 App-optional (can be shared via WhatsApp, SMS, or call)
- 📋 Easily entered by guards using a secure admin screen
No app? No problem. Just give the 6-digit code—entry verified instantly.
⚖️ QR vs 6-Digit Code: Side-by-Side Comparison
| Feature | QR Code Entry | VantaGate 6-Digit Code |
|---|---|---|
| Requires Smartphone? | ✅ Yes (for visitor) | ❌ No |
| Elderly-Friendly | ❌ Difficult | ✅ Easy to share over call |
| Scan Reliability | ❌ Can fail in poor light | ✅ Always readable |
| Network Dependency | ✅ High | ✅ Minimal |
| Entry Speed | ⏳ Medium-Slow | ⚡ Fast |
| Delivery Entry Compatibility | ❌ Often confusing | ✅ Separate code system |
| App Required to Use? | ✅ Yes | ❌ No |
🔐 3. Why Codes Are More Secure Than QR
QR codes can be:
- Screenshotted and forwarded multiple times
- Reused if guards aren’t careful
- Easy to tamper with in low-awareness setups
VantaGate’s code system uses server-side authentication:
- Code can only be used once
- Each use is time-logged
- All data is stored in an encrypted log for admins
✅ Every gate entry is accounted for—accurately and automatically.
👮♂️ 4. Guard-Friendly Design
Not all societies have tech-savvy guards.
QR systems often require:
- App access
- Camera alignment
- Internet sync
With VantaGate, guards simply:
- Ask for the 6-digit code
- Enter it into the secure portal
- Gate opens if verified
- Entry is recorded instantly
No training required. No delays.
