FAQs

What is security guard management software?

Security guard management software is a centralized system that handles scheduling, GPS timekeeping, patrol tracking, payroll, and billing for security companies. Instead of juggling spreadsheets, paper logs, and three or four disconnected apps, your whole team works from one platform. Belfry was built specifically for the security industry, not adapted from generic workforce software built for retail or restaurants.

How does guard management software work?

Think of it as the connective tissue between five things that used to live in five different places: scheduling, GPS-verified time clocks, patrol data, payroll, and billing. Managers get real-time visibility into every shift, checkpoint, and timesheet instead of piecing information together from texts, spreadsheets, and phone calls.

What features should security guard software have?

At minimum, look for automated scheduling, GPS and patrol tracking, a mobile app guards will actually open, payroll and billing that talk to each other, and license or certification tracking.

How is security guard software different from generic workforce tools?

Generic workforce tools are built to answer one question: who's clocked in right now? Security-specific software answers a longer list. Where is this guard standing? Was the last patrol actually completed? Can the client log in and see coverage for themselves?

Is security guard management software worth it for smaller security companies?

There's no minimum headcount to use Belfry. That said, companies with 10 or more officers tend to see the fastest payback.

How long does setup take?

Most teams are live within a few weeks. The exact timeline depends on how many sites and officers you're bringing over, and whether you're starting from scratch or migrating off an old system.
