Our verdict on GuardStarTech
GuardStarTech is security management software for security companies and agencies. It brings together guard management, scheduling, geofenced clock-ins and clock-outs, GPS tracking, patrol logging, digital checkpoints, incident reporting with photo evidence, client reporting and in-app messaging. Guards use the EZ Guard mobile app for field workflows, while administrators manage guards, sites and operational data. Its feature set fits small firms that want core coverage operations in one product without a high starting price.
Pricing is structured around team size and operating needs. The Basic plan costs $5 per guard per month and includes guard management, clock in and clock out, incident reporting, the EZ Guard app, editable daily reports and auto-generated daily reports. Pro costs $10 per guard per month and adds GPS tracking, guard scheduling and management, automated daily reports with scheduled sending, monthly reporting and in-app messaging. Unlimited Monthly costs $249.90 per month and includes unlimited guards, unlimited sites, all Basic and Pro tools, plus priority support. A 30-day trial is available, and the pricing page says no credit card is needed to start; the homepage trial form displays credit-card fields and says Stripe integration is pending.
The strongest case for GuardStarTech is its focused operational workflow: field staff can record time, patrol activity and incidents, while administrators can create reports and send updates to clients. The EZ Guard app extends those workflows beyond the office, and photo evidence supports incident documentation. The trade-off is that the published product details emphasize core guard operations rather than a wider platform ecosystem. Small firms prioritizing scheduling, patrol visibility, reporting and low per-guard pricing should find the positioning clear. Larger operations may prefer the Unlimited Monthly plan for its flat pricing, unlimited guards and sites, while teams that need broader ecosystem connections should evaluate fit carefully.
