What GuardChek is
GuardChek is security guard management software for coordinating shifts, patrols, safety checks, incident records, payroll and client access. Managers can arrange shifts, announce open work by push notification or SMS, and handle swaps and vacation requests. Guards clock in and out through geofence verification, with selfie identity photos stored by the service. Guard Tour uses QR codes and GPS checkpoints, with reminders and alarms for missed checkpoints. Safety features include an SOS button, heartbeat monitoring, and alerts if the app or location goes offline. Guards can submit incident, arrest and ban reports with time-stamped photos, searchable by site, type and guard. Verified hours can generate payroll and client invoices, while client logins provide access to schedules, reports, invoices and coverage requests. The service runs on web, Android and iOS; the guard app can work without a signal and sync when coverage returns. Starter costs $374 a month billed yearly; there is no free plan.
