GuardChek - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

GuardChek is a cloud-based security guard management platform built for security guard companies in the United States and Canada, from small firms to large enterprises. Core capabilities span drag-and-drop scheduling with open-shift broadcast via push and SMS, geofence-verified clock in/out, selfie identity photos on file, NFC and GPS checkpoint guard tours with missed-checkpoint alarms, SOS panic button, guard alarms with heartbeat monitoring, dispatch with live status and event timelines, guided incident and arrest reporting, a searchable suspect and ban database, payroll reports built from verified hours, client invoicing, and a client portal with per-client dashboards. Guard tours, guard alarms, dispatch, arrest reports, the suspect and ban database, invoicing, the client portal, the HR suite and vehicle inspections start on the Growth plan.

Each customer receives a private, isolated database instance rather than a shared multi-tenant environment, providing data separation at the infrastructure level. Guards use the iOS or Android app on their own devices; no proprietary hardware is required, and inexpensive NFC tags serve as tour checkpoints. The guard app is offline-tolerant. White-glove onboarding loads sites, guards, and schedules as part of setup.

GuardChek consolidates scheduling, patrol management, guard safety, incident reporting, HR, payroll reports, and client billing into one platform. Each published plan has a flat monthly price with no per-guard fees, for up to 25, 50 or 100 guards. The HR suite covers employee files, e-signatures, licence-expiry alerts, and disciplinary actions. Built-in office-to-guard messaging and mobile patrol with vehicle inspections and photo checklists round out the platform, replacing multiple separate software subscriptions with one unified system.
