Guard Patrol Pro vs Security Guard App

Guard Patrol Pro is cloud-based security patrol software for verifying rounds and keeping supervisors informed about patrol status. Guards can scan QR-code or NFC checkpoints, with GPS geofencing available on every plan. Route assignment, automated guard scheduling and GPS-verified shift attendance support day-to-day patrol operations. Guards can submit incident reports with photos and notes, with GPS and timestamps attached to the round. The app includes a one-tap SOS alert, and supervisors can receive real-time missed-checkpoint alerts. Daily patrol, attendance and incident reports are emailed to agency owners and site managers. The software runs on web, Android and iOS, and the mobile app can continue working without a signal before syncing data when connectivity returns. The vendor says GPS tracking is limited to active shifts and that location history follows a configured retention policy. Plans start at $15/mo, with a 15-day trial listed. The Starter plan is $15 a month and covers three sites and 20 guards; higher plans add capacity and support options.

Security Guard App is a mobile and web tool for security guards, security companies, and clients to coordinate teams and manage operations. Users can invite guards and clients, manage profiles, create teams, and add post sites. Guards can check in and out, with time clock and time log management for tracking work. Custom reports support multiple submissions and photo, video, and audio attachments. NFC scanning lets supported roles verify patrol checkpoints, record site visits, and add notes or media. GPS tracking at sites is available when a guard is using the app and tracking is enabled. Other listed tools include in-app messaging, live notifications, panic alerts, post orders, and pass-down logs. The Free plan is for one user. Standard costs $5 per guard per month and renews monthly until cancelled; paid subscriptions can be cancelled at any time. The app is available on Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows.
