Know every post is covered—across every site and shift.
Schedule gates, lobbies, rovers, supervisors, and overnight posts. Surface unassigned coverage before the shift handoff begins.
The guard staffing demo opens in Builder without signup. Pro helps supervisors respond when posts or assignments change.
A single open post can put the whole site plan at risk.
Coverage crosses many posts
Guard schedules often span client sites, posts, supervisors, and overnight coverage.
Open posts need attention
An unassigned gate, lobby, or rover shift can be difficult to spot in a spreadsheet.
Field teams need mobile clarity
Guards need clear shift times, locations, roles, and updates while away from a desk.
See every site, post, and relief gap before the shift starts.
Organize coverage by site and role
Review supervisors, officers, rovers, and gate posts in one schedule.
Spot open shifts sooner
Make unassigned work visible before it becomes a last-minute coverage problem.
Coordinate after publishing
Pro connects schedule changes, staff access, notifications, confirmations, and messaging.
Scan every site for open guard posts.
Review gates, lobbies, rover assignments, supervisors, and unfilled posts together so the next coverage gap is visible before handoff.

Security staffing scheduling questions
What is security guard scheduling software?
Security guard scheduling software organizes guards, supervisors, posts, and shift times across client sites so managers can see assigned work and open coverage in one schedule.
Can I schedule guards across multiple sites?
Yes. Schedules can be organized by worksite, position, personnel, and assigned or open shifts.
Can guards see available shifts?
Pro can surface open shifts for staff to review and claim when claiming is enabled.
Can guards view site, post, and schedule changes on mobile?
Pro gives guards mobile access to current shift details and supports live updates, notifications, reminders, confirmations, and messages when an assignment changes.
What is the difference between Builder and Pro for security teams?
Builder is for creating, printing, and sharing a schedule from the browser. Pro adds cloud workspace storage, staff accounts, mobile access, open-shift claiming, and ongoing team coordination.
Does ShiftDispatch include guard-tour or incident reporting?
No. ShiftDispatch focuses on scheduling and workforce coordination, not patrol tracking, incident reports, or time clocks.
