From an employee quitting to a supplier changing the way they make deliveries,  small business owners are bombarded with challenges on a regular basis. Another very specific struggle: Who’s going to answer the door? (Because, let’s face it, receptionists are expensive.)

Greetly, a sleek new iPad app, is here to help small offices save money, increase productivity and create great impressions. It’s the receptionist of the modern era.

Here’s how it works: Mount an iPad to a stand and position it near the door. Visitors walk up to said iPad and use the Greetly app to check themselves in. Greetly instantly notifies host employees via their choice of text, email and/or voice call and maintains a cloud-based visitor log. In addition to checking in visitors, Greetly also accepts food and package deliveries.

After the cost of the iPad, the service ranges in price from $49 to $199 a month, depending on your headcount and the amount of visitor-log storage you need.
