CheckpointGuard vs QR-Patrol
Both stand on security guard software. Which one you can start free with, which one lets you read the code, and what each costs once you pay.
CheckpointGuard provides patrol records, operational oversight and reports for organizations that coordinate guards across sites. Gold adds live tracking, geofences and scheduling, while Platinum adds the Aegis assistant when enabled. Look elsewhere if you need statutory payroll filing or bank payments from the software.
