If running payroll and tax filing inside your guard platform is the feature you'd switch for, Belfry's built-in payroll is a genuine draw. If you'd rather keep payroll in the system you already use and put your money toward the security operation itself — verified tours, reporting, live tracking, scheduling — at a price you can see today, PatrolWizzard is the cleaner fit. Especially for smaller operators who want every feature included rather than packaged.
Yes. Both cover GPS tracking, NFC checkpoint tours, incident reporting, and scheduling. PatrolWizzard's difference is published per-guard pricing you can calculate yourself, with every feature included rather than packaged — and it's built by working security operators.
