About us
SA Technologies: Innovators of South Africa’s first digital visitor management system
Built on Trust. Driven by Innovation. Focused on You.
Our story
We officially launched SA Technologies in 2005, but our journey began long before that.
​
With a strong background in access control systems, CCTV, and electric fencing, we spent years working closely with clients across various industries. This hands-on experience gave us deep insight into the everyday challenges of managing secure and efficient access to people, vehicles, and assets.
As we worked on site (Including our CEO and founder), it became clear that paper-based systems and manual registers were no longer effective. While the industry remained focused on traditional methods, we saw the shift coming, the future of access control would be digital.
​
We set out to build a solution that didn’t yet exist. Instead of relying on third-party tools, we developed our own proprietary software, called VisitMe. Tailored specifically to solve the real problems we encountered in the field. It was practical, streamlined, and built with the end user in mind.
We’re proud to say we were the first company in South Africa to introduce a dedicated visitor management solution, long before the term was widely recognised in the industry.

VisitMe: Digital visitor management and access control built for real-world challenges
The birth of VisitMe: Replacing paper logbooks with digital gate entry
VisitMe began as a practical solution to a widespread problem: outdated, unreliable paper logbooks at site entrances. Recognising the inefficiencies and security risks posed by manual registers, we set out to create a smarter way to manage check-ins and access — one that offered speed, accuracy, and compliance from the start.
​
What started as a simple digital alternative has since evolved into something far more powerful.
​
Today, VisitMe is a robust process management platform, trusted by organisations across a wide range of sectors. From residential estates and office parks to mining operations, logistics hubs, and manufacturing sites, VisitMe adapts to the needs of each environment with unmatched flexibility.
With a powerful set of features and a modular design, VisitMe helps you take control of who and what enters your site — enhancing both security and efficiency. Our system empowers teams to build tailored access control processes that align with real-world workflows, whether you're managing visitors, staff, vehicles, contractors, or assets.

IntelliGuard: Smart, guardless gate access for estates
In 2023, in response to growing demand for a cost-effective, self-managed access control option in residential markets, we launched the IntelliGuard Keypad solution. This solution is streamlined and allows residents to manage their own visitor bookings and access gates using QR codes and PIN codes, all through a convenient mobile app.
​
Designed specifically for gated communities, estates, and small office parks without full-time guards, this keypad-based system provides secure entry and exit control without the need for costly hardware or on-site staff. Residents can open gates remotely, while visitors gain access using a rolling QR code or a temporary PIN, ensuring both security and ease of use.
It’s a modern, affordable solution that delivers control, convenience, and peace of mind
— with no guard required.
