What visitor History Log does
Visitor History Log is one of the modules societies ask for most. In short, it keeps a searchable history of every visitor who has ever entered, filterable by flat, date, or purpose — removing a task that used to depend on a register, a phone call, or someone remembering.
Key benefits
- Find any past visitor in seconds, not registers.
- Filter by flat, guard, date range, or purpose.
- Supports society investigations and audits.
- Data retained per your society's policy settings.
How it works
1
Turn it on
The admin enables visitor History Log for your society from the Secure Nest dashboard — no separate installation needed.
2
Set your rules
Configure it to match how your society actually works: who can approve, what gets logged, and who's notified.
3
It runs itself
From here, visitor History Log works in the background — residents, guards, and the committee all see the same up-to-date record.
Why societies choose this
Societies that switch to visitor History Log usually do it after one too many disputes or missed handoffs around this exact task. Once it's digital, the same information is visible to residents, guards, and the committee at the same time — which is usually what actually resolves the friction.
Frequently asked questions
In most cases, yes. Visitor History Log runs on the Secure Nest app and dashboard, and where hardware is involved (like cameras or access devices), it's designed to work alongside common existing setups rather than requiring a full replacement.
Yes — it's built for residents and staff who may not be comfortable with complex apps. Most residents are up and running within their first use, and guards typically need only a short walkthrough.
Yes. Records created through this module are stored securely and access is limited by role, so residents, guards, and committee members only see what's relevant to them.
