Security Guard Software for Canadian Security Companies

Guard scheduling, GPS tracking & proof of patrol for Canada

ShiftsGo helps Canadian security companies schedule guards, verify site attendance, track mobile patrols, and produce GPS-stamped proof of service for commercial, residential, construction, and industrial contracts.

Canadian clients want clear proof that their contracted guard coverage happened. ShiftsGo turns each shift into verifiable, time-stamped, GPS-stamped evidence - patrol scans, checkpoint hits, incident logs, daily activity reports - and routes missed coverage or patrol exceptions to supervisors before the client has to ask.
