Express Travel Registry:
SImplified safety and security for the Traveler


Kerry Geffert
Product Evangelist, Terra Dotta

 

You have travelers spread across the globe, and you don’t have a travel registry system that includes all your known travelers. Suddenly reality hits: you have a new responsibility - what the field calls “duty of care.””1 Now come the sleepless nights until your travelers return to campus. Late night phone calls or emails cause your heart to skip a beat. Every news bulletin starts a mental process of determining if you have travelers in an affected area. If only you had Terra Dotta’s new Express Travel Registry!

Express what? Express Travel Registry. It’s the newest development from Terra Dotta, designed for offices looking for an easy, simple, method to keep travelers safe and know they are safe. Express Travel Registry is quick and easy to implement, simple to administer, and intuitive for both users and admins.

Smaller and one-person offices will find Express Travel Registry especially attractive for its ease of use and cost effectives features. There is no need to have a computer specialist operate or maintain the software. Data entry by administrators is not necessary since travel information is directly submitted by the traveler or via forwarded email confirmations.

Your travelers will appreciate the ease of use, which will encourage compliance.  They can enter trips through the streamlined user interface and even submit itineraries by forwarding confirmation emails from airlines and hotels. Your faculty and staff travelers will also appreciate the security of receiving travel intelligence and timely alerts, along with the knowledge that their institution can assist them in times of emergency. Express Travel Registry will help keep your travelers safe, and provide you the functionality to verify their safety when necessary by using the tools built into Terra Dotta’s popular AlertTraveler.

For the traveler, the features in Terra Dotta’s new Express Travel Registry include:

  • The ability to create and maintain a traveler profile
  • A streamlined interface to login, enter travel, and view previous trips
  • The ability to easily enter air, ground transport, and accommodation details
  • Convenient forwarding of confirmation emails from hotels, airlines, and travel sites to the system for automatic extraction and creation of itinerary records
  • Access to Terra Dotta’s AlertTraveler system, providing travelers with worldwide travel intelligence (supplied by iJet), alerts for events that affect them, and the security of receiving and responding to check-in requests

 

For the administrator, Express Travel Registry offers:

  • A streamlined Terra Dotta interface
  • A low maintenance system that is quick and easy to implement
  • Powerful tools to locate and communicate with travelers during critical events
  • A map view to visualize traveler locations
  • Travel intelligence and worldwide travel alerts in partnership with iJet
  • SMS notifications when severe events affect travelers
  • The ability to generate SMS and email alerts about critical events affecting their travelers
  • The ability to generate check-in requests and track responses
  • Reporting capabilities

 

Terra Dotta’s Development team is putting the final touches on this new offering. A Beta version will be available beginning January 2018, with the official release slated for April 2018. If interest in Terra Dotta’s popular AlertTraveler is any indication, Express Travel Registry will quickly become a standard for ensuring traveler safety at campuses across the United States and beyond.

Combining the best of Terra Dotta software expertise with a streamlined user interface, Express Travel Registry provides your travelers with a convenient method to register their travel information, enabling your administrators to exercise appropriate duty of care.
