"Was anyone actually on post?"
Calls at 2 a.m., guards who say they were there, no way to prove it to the client.

A live picture of every site for your dispatchers.
Build the week across sites and guards, then publish it to everyone's phone.
Guards can only start duty and take breaks on site, and clock-outs away from site are flagged. Timesheets build themselves, with pay rates and CSV/XLSX export for payroll.

You protect people and property. Your software should protect your data, your clients' data and your guards' records.
Start your free trialForceVera is security guard software for guard companies, also called security workforce management software. It brings scheduling, a geofenced time clock, QR patrol tours, incident and daily reports, dispatch with a live map, a client portal and client invoicing into one platform, with a mobile app for guards and supervisors.
Basic and Pro start with a 14-day free trial. You enter a card when you start, and nothing is charged during the trial. Cancel any time before it ends and you pay nothing; otherwise your plan starts and the card is charged when the trial ends.
You pay one flat monthly or annual price per company, sized by the number of guards. Admins, dispatchers, supervisors and client users are not counted, so adding office staff or giving clients access never raises your bill.
When you reach your plan's guard limit you can still add a few guards (10% of your limit, at least 2) for 7 days. Before then, add 10 more guards for $49 a month or move up a plan; both take a minute and are prorated. After that, new guards wait until you fit your plan again. The guards you already have always keep working, and we email you at 80% and 100% of your limit. Enterprise is never stopped: it includes 500 guards, and each guard above that is $2 a month.
Yes. Every plan includes SMS credits each month for shift alerts and reminders: one credit per 160-character text. Push notifications in the app and email alerts are not counted. If you use more, extra credits are $0.03 each up to a monthly limit you set ($25 unless you change it); past that limit texts pause until the next month, and every alert still reaches the app. Nothing is charged during the free trial, so trial texts pause when the credits are used up.
Basic and Pro have no setup fee and bill month to month; cancel any time. Enterprise includes guided onboarding for a one-time fee. Annual billing is optional and saves about 17%.
Yes. Daily reports can be compiled and emailed to clients automatically, and on Pro and Enterprise clients get their own portal with reports, sites and invoices. You control which client users see which sites.
Yes. Your company name, logo and colours appear across your workspace, client portal and emails, so clients see your brand. The web app also has a dark mode, with a dark version of your colours worked out automatically or chosen by you.
Your workspace becomes read-only at the end of the paid period. Your data is kept, and you can resubscribe at any time to pick up where you left off.
Each company works in its own workspace with role-based permissions. Admins can turn on two-step sign-in, sensitive actions are recorded in an audit log, photos and documents such as guard licences are stored privately and open only through expiring links for your own team and clients, and card payments are handled by Stripe, so we never store card numbers.
