Other benefits include potential cost savings through staffing optimization, identification of new opportunities for bringing in revenue and improving the environment and experience for your visitors, encouraging furthur visits.

Visitor counting data can help you identify the best performing areas, or areas for improvement, based on footfall numbers and visitor dwell times.

Optimize staff scheduling
Use historical trend data of visitor numbers to smartly deploy staff when and where they are required, enabling cost savings and visitor experience improvements.
Maximize retail opportunities
Analyze visitor movement to identify the best location opportunities for retail or new attractions. In attractions that rely on government funding, souvenir and gift shops offer a vital boost to revenue that should be maximized.
