Why will traditional business cards be forgotten?
In the era of digitization and hybrid work, paper business cards are losing their importance. Online meetings, dynamic changes in teams and increasing data security requirements are making traditional methods of contact exchange insufficient. Companies need a solution that is fast, secure and integrated with the tools they use every day. Visitcard is the answer to these needs. A modern tool that combines ease of use with full control over data and compliance with the organization's security policy.
What is Ewizytówka?
Business card is a digital corporate business card in the form of a QR code, available as an extension of Microsoft 365. It allows an employee to easily share his or her contact information - all the recipient has to do is scan the QR code to instantly save the complete contact in vCard format on his or her phone or computer. This solution eliminates the need to manually transcribe data, which not only saves time, but also minimizes the risk of errors. Importantly, Ewizytówka works in an environment that users are familiar with and use every day, in applications such as Teams, Outlook or SharePoint - without the need to install additional programs.
Data security: the foundation of Ewizytówki
Information security is one of the most important aspects in today's business world. Unlike many of the applications available on the market, Ewizard does not send data to external servers. All information is pulled directly from the company's Azure Active Directory, which means it remains fully under the organization's control. As a result, companies can rest assured that their employees' data will not fall into the wrong hands. In addition, the QR code is automatically generated based on verified data from the HR or AD system, which eliminates the risk of information manipulation. An employee can't independently change a position or add a false title, which increases credibility and builds trust in business dealings.
Automation and timeliness: no more manual work
One of the biggest advantages of Ewizard is the full automation of the process. Once the solution is implemented, it works in plug-and-play mode, which means that it requires no additional configuration on the user's side. When an employee joins the organization and his or her Active Directory account is created, the system automatically generates a digital business card for him or her. What's more, the data is always up-to-date. Any change in an employee's profile, such as a change in position or department, is immediately reflected in the QR code. This gives the company a consistent and professional image, and employees don't have to worry about manual updates.
Integration with Microsoft 365: a natural working environment
The business card is designed to fit seamlessly into the Microsoft 365 ecosystem, with users accessing their business cards in applications they are already familiar with: in Teams, Outlook and SharePoint. In practice, this means that the QR code can be pinned in the Teams sidebar, accessed as an add-in in Outlook or displayed on an intranet page in SharePoint.
Thanks to the integration with Azure Active Directory, logging in is done automatically via Single Sign-On, eliminating the need for additional passwords and increasing user convenience. Deployment requires no additional infrastructure, as the whole thing runs in the Microsoft cloud, ensuring scalability and reliability.
How does the Visit Card work in practice?
In day-to-day business situations, the Visit Card significantly facilitates the exchange of contacts. During desktop meetings, an employee can display his QR code on the screen of his phone or laptop, and the caller will scan it with the camera on his smartphone. When working remotely, the QR code can be inserted into an Outlook email or attached to a vCard file. What's more, the app allows you to search for contacts within your organization, just find a colleague in the system and share their QR code with the client. This is a fast, convenient and secure solution that eliminates the need to send contacts in the traditional way.

Why is it worth implementing Ewizytówka?
Security and privacy are becoming increasingly important in the business world. Companies don't want to entrust their employees' data to random applications, which is why Ewizytów was designed with full control over information in mind. It works within the company's environment, using data already controlled by the company, eliminating concerns about information leakage. Integration with Microsoft 365 means lower costs and easier implementation, as the organization doesn't have to buy, learn or maintain a separate system. Users quickly accept the solution because it appears in their familiar interface, such as in Teams as another application icon, instead of requiring the installation of something new. Implementing Ewizytówka is a step toward modernity that enhances the work experience and builds a professional corporate image.
