Highly Recommend

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: I enjoy using Guardhouse and working with the GH Team.

Pros:

Given my role using Guardhouse, I particularly like the reports on offer and the skill matching feature, it ensures compliance across all our sites. The support from the GH team is also wonderful, they accept feedback and turn around time of any requests/questions is fast and helpful.

Cons:

As with most applications these days, it is online, so if there is internet issues, it can be hard to access, but that is in no way a fault of Guardhouse.

Great System and works well with the Security Industry

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: Generally really good, we have our first and main contact on speed dial and he is always happy to help and answer any queries.

Pros:

Integration into our business was smooth, we had and still have ongoing support from the team who are happy and capable to assist with any issues or changes we desire. The system is easy to use and allows us to manage the team effectively from within.

Cons:

Personally I would like to view the rosters over a two week period rather than week view only. If I was able to ask for one thing it would be a two week view.

Future Proofing, a tool for industry success

5.0 3 months ago

Comments: [sensitive content hidden] and the team at GH have gone over and above to ensure that we are supported and listen to at all times.

Pros:

Provides our business the compliance needs, within a single system, that is already aligned to several compliance dashboards. This also ensure our people are paid in real time against the Modern Award, without the compilations.

Cons:

it is a work in progress, with a Dev team at Guardhouse, willing to look at any and all business needs, to continuity improve the product, and that of its users.
