    Software for mobile patrol and key holding companies

    Mobile patrol software records each visit a patrol officer makes and shows the office what has and has not been done. In GuardLink a patrol is a list of timed checkpoints, and the officer confirms each one with a photo.

    Proof of every visit

    What makes it hard

    • The officer is on their own

      If contact stops, someone has to notice quickly.

    • Each visit has to be proved

      Clients pay by the visit and expect to see that it happened, on time.

    • Signal comes and goes

      Industrial estates and basements are where mobile data gives up.

    What you would use, and what for

    • A photo at every checkpoint

      Each point has a time. The photo, time and location are saved together.

      Patrols
    • Regular check-ins

      If an officer working alone misses one, your managers are alerted within minutes.

      Check calls
    • Report what was found

      An open door or a break-in is reported from the phone, with photos.

      Incident reporting
    • Works when the signal does not

      Checkpoints, check-ins and reports are saved on the phone and sent later.

    Questions

    Mobile patrols: what people ask

    Does it track the patrol vehicle?

    No. It records where the officer was when they clocked in, clocked out and confirmed each checkpoint. There is no live map.

    How is a patrol visit proved?

    With the checkpoint photo, saved with the time and the phone's location.

    Does it handle alarm response and key registers?

    Not as separate features. A response visit can be recorded as a patrol with an incident report.

    Put one night's patrol route in and see the visits come through.
