CheckpointGuard review
A low-cost patrol platform with free checkpoint tools and an Android guard app.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
CheckpointGuard is security operations software for security companies, hotel and resort teams, mobile patrol operations and multi-site organizations. It combines a web administration workspace with an Android guard app for QR and NFC checkpoint verification, GPS activity, schedules, attendance, operational messages and SOS alerts. Supervisors can monitor active guards, review historical trails and prepare client reports with configurable email delivery. Small patrol teams get a clear starting point through the free plan, while larger operations can scale through paid guard ranges.
Pricing is structured around guard capacity. The Free plan costs €0 forever and supports one active site, two active guards, five QR/NFC checkpoints and 30 days of basic patrol history. Pro for 1–3 guards costs €40 per month with monthly billing or €34.17 per month with annual billing. Pro for 4–9 guards costs €77 monthly or €64.92 with annual billing, while Pro for 10–24 guards costs €124 monthly or €105.08 with annual billing. The listed 25–49 guard Pro price is €176 per month. Prices exclude VAT and are flat totals for the selected guard range rather than per-user prices. A 14-day Gold trial is also available, after which the Free plan continues.
The strongest fit is a team that needs checkpoint verification, location oversight and client reporting without starting with a paid subscription. Paid plans add live GPS, geofences, scheduling, time and attendance, guard pay and labour-cost reporting, while the Aegis operational assistant is available on enabled Platinum workspaces. The platform combination is focused: web administration plus an Android patrol app. Teams that require iOS patrol coverage should choose an alternative, while Android-based patrol teams and organizations managing multiple sites can use CheckpointGuard's monitoring and reporting workflow as their operational base.
