Comparison

ShiftsGo vs Silvertrac

Two guard management platforms, two philosophies: device-based pricing vs. flat plans, shift replay, and a self-serve rollout.

Silvertrac (part of the Trackforce family) is a reporting-centered guard management tool with device-based pricing. ShiftsGo is built around a proof-of-patrol core: scheduling, GPS attendance, QR/NFC patrols, a per-site log book, and shift replay in one platform — priced by shift volume, not by how many guards you employ. Here's how the two differ.

What Silvertrac focuses on

Silvertrac centers on an issue-monitor workflow: incident reporting, client dashboards, and a parking module. It's a reporting-first tool — scheduling and attendance live elsewhere in the Trackforce ecosystem, so operators often end up running multiple systems to cover the full operation.

Where ShiftsGo takes a different approach

  • Pricing model. Silvertrac's public pricing starts around $249/month for up to 10 devices — cost scales with headcount. ShiftsGo plans start at $49/month and scale by shift volume, not devices, so adding guards doesn't raise your bill.
  • Shift replay. ShiftsGo records the full GPS telemetry of every shift and lets supervisors scrub back through it like a recording — route, speed, checkpoint progress at any moment. Useful for disputes and incident investigations beyond what a checkpoint history shows.
  • Scheduling in the core. ShiftsGo treats recurring shift series, attendance verification, and coverage-gap alerts as first-class features alongside patrol tracking, with AI-assisted guard recommendations on Growth plans.
  • Site log book with accountability. Guard entries keep full version history with supervisor review, and AI Polish turns rough field notes into client-ready text without losing the original.
  • Self-serve rollout. Sign up, import sites and guards from CSV, and run a site the same day — a 14-day full-featured trial, no demo call required (though we're happy to give one).

How to decide

Every operation weighs these trade-offs differently — the fastest way to decide is with your own data. Import one contract's sites and guards into the ShiftsGo 14-day trial, run a week of real shifts with verified patrols and a live log book, and compare the client report you get at the end of it against what you're producing today. No credit card, no sales call required.
