The Alert Enterprise and Checkr story
Alert Enterprise is committed to protecting critical infrastructure and assets. But delivering a seamless yet secure visitor experience is hard, especially when managing large volumes of guests across multiple locations. That’s why Alert Enterprise sought a partner to enhance its visitor management solution with fast, reliable security checks—without adding friction to the check-in process.
Overcoming challenges in visitor management
Every industry has unique security and compliance requirements, and hospitals, financial institutions, life sciences, and technology firms are among the most demanding. Customers need a visitor management solution that is both highly secure and flexible enough to adapt to varying policies and regulations.
Traditional background screening and visitor vetting methods often resulted in delays, inefficiencies, and security gaps. Alert Enterprise required a scalable, automated solution to assess visitors quickly and accurately, ensuring only authorized individuals could access sensitive spaces.
Integrating instant criminal data for seamless visitor screening
To enhance security without compromising efficiency, Alert Enterprise partnered with Checkr for real-time criminal data and public record screenings. Using Checkr's visitor management solutions, Alert Enterprise customers can instantly screen visitors against more than 2,400 government sources, including:
- Criminal court records
- Security watchlists
- Sex offender registries
Checkr’s API integrates directly into Alert Enterprise’s visitor management system, allowing organizations to assess potential risks in real time—all within a smooth and secure check-in experience.
Scalability and accuracy are critical, particularly for organizations handling high visitor volumes. With Checkr, Alert Enterprise customers can meet strict security regulations while maintaining an efficient, welcoming environment.
Achieving faster, safer, and more efficient visitor management
Alert Enterprise's partnership with Checkr delivers immediate security benefits:
- Proven risk mitigation: In 2024, Alert Enterprise performed hundreds of thousands of visitor checks—successfully identifying and escalating thousands of records for deeper investigation.
- Lightning-fast results: Security screenings return in under 0.5 seconds, enabling organizations to process high visitor volumes effortlessly.
- Expanded use cases: The enhanced visitor screening solution has driven adoption, particularly in healthcare settings.
One real-world example is a children’s hospital that receives thousands of visitors per month. For them, visitor management also means providing families with a seamless experience during stressful times.
With Alert Enterprise and Checkr, the hospital prevents unauthorized access—including by individuals with a history of crimes against minors—while ensuring that approved visitors, like parents and family members, can see their loved ones without unnecessary delays.
Balancing security and user experience with real-time solutions
The partnership between Alert Enterprise and Checkr demonstrates how security and user experience don’t have to be at odds. By integrating instant, intelligent criminal record checks into the visitor management process, organizations can:
- Reduce security risks without adding friction

Static security measures aren't enough for spaces where people come and go all day. Organizations need real-time, adaptable solutions to keep their spaces safe and welcoming. By combining automated workflows, instant criminal record screening, and seamless integration, Alert Enterprise and Checkr deliver the next generation of visitor management security.
