Here are the customization options:

Step 3: In the "How should the employee be notified?" section, select one of the following options:

  • No Notification

  • Browse all employees (check the box to "Hide employees until search" if you prefer).

  • Notify pre-determined employee (start typing an employee's name in the "Required" field and select a name when it populates).

Step 4: Next section "Do you want the visitor to enter any information about themselves?"

  • You may want to collect the visitor's first and last name (Check the appropriate boxes, for example, First name, last name, email, and phone number etc.).

  • Example message, "Hello [host_first_name], this is Greetly, your virtual receptionist. [first_name] is in the lobby to see you. Have a great day".
