How Does Active View Improve Active Track’s Functionality?

The rise of technology has made it easy for many industries. Some rely on better hardware, others use best-in-class software to complete tasks quickly & more efficiently.
However, the best-implemented technology is usually a combination of hardware & software that work in harmony to massively improve the current functioning of the business.

Following this vision, we at Guard Patrol Products created the Active Track (hardware) & Active View (software) to take proof of presence reporting & lone worker protection to greater heights.

Active Track

Active Track is our hand-held device capable of real-time guard monitoring and proof of presence reporting. It has features like two-way voice communication and GPS functionality to improve guard systems with specific ones like a panic button to aid lone workers.
With the push of a button, lone workers can call in support from the control room or directly from a designated mobile. This is where software support comes into action.

Active View: The Perfect Support

Active View is a web-based management portal that works in close contact with Active Track. One can even dub it the perfect software support for the Active Track device. Once set up, you can view all the deployed Active Track devices with their location and preset notifications. You can also configure it according to personnel or projects where they are used.

There are many benefits to using Active View, let’s go over a few of them below.

• Quick & Easy Deployment

  A few software have a bad reputation for taking too long to set up because of the multiple steps involved.

  Active View doesn’t need any special infrastructure or a static public IP address, enabling fast deployment speed. Installing it is a breeze with clear on-screen instructions. Post-installation, you can quickly connect all your available Active Track devices along with their names & custom instructions/settings.

  It is also user-friendly and relatively easy to use. Features like support from multiple internet browsers and Google maps add a sense of familiarity to the experience.

• Real-time Monitoring

  The bigger the area, the more guards you need to patrol. One must have the option to track the movement of all guards in one place.

  Active view enables that and takes this a step ahead with real-time monitoring of events and alarm messages. It also lets the person in the control room track other metrics like connection status, battery level indication, and GSM signal strength. This makes the task of intra-communication & coordination easy and accessible.

• Reporting & Automation

  A patrol system is as good as its ability to report correctly & accurately. Improper reporting leads to haphazard management with unsatisfactory results.

We understood the importance it holds and integrated Active view with a report generator. It reads & analyses the stored information and computes a report in CSV format. Automation is the way of the future which is why, Active view offers a report scheduling feature with which you can configure to send reports on a daily, weekly, monthly or quarterly basis. These can be sent out to the management or straight to the client depending on the need.

In conclusion, while Active Track is an amazing stand-alone product, using it with Active View brings out a whole set of useful features, helping you unlock the next level.
