Alternatives

Silvertrac alternatives in 2026

Silvertrac now sits under the Trackforce brand, next to TrackTik. You do not have to move, but a brand change is a sensible moment to check whether the product still fits. This page lists the realistic options, staying put included, using what each vendor publishes about itself. Patrol Tech, our parent company, is on the list with its cons.

Do you actually need to move?

Probably not today. Trackforce has owned Silvertrac since January 2020. In 2026 it unified TrackTik, GuardTek and Silvertrac under the Trackforce brand, and silvertracsoftware.com now redirects to trackforce.com. For existing customers, Trackforce says there is nothing to migrate or reinstall and that current agreements stand.

What changes is who decides where the product goes. Trackforce describes "one roadmap" across its platforms and says branding and product names may change behind the scenes, with notice. The old Silvertrac pricing URL now lands on the TrackTik quote page.

The reasons to look elsewhere are practical: you need something Silvertrac does not do, you want published pricing, you operate outside the US, or you would rather not tie your patrol records and your renewal to a roadmap you do not control. If none of those apply, staying is a reasonable answer.

The options

  • Stay on Silvertrac (Trackforce)

    Best for
    Small security companies whose Silvertrac setup covers guard tours, reporting and dispatch, with nothing forcing a change
    Strengths
    No migration: Trackforce says existing environments keep running and agreements stand. Unlimited checkpoints with step-by-step instructions, GPS and geofencing, automated Daily Activity Reports, dispatch tasks, parking management and a client portal. No contracts, monthly payments and a personal success manager.
    Cons
    The roadmap is now shared across Trackforce products and product names may change. No price figures on the Silvertrac page. Offline operation is not described. Certifications are stated at Trackforce level; confirm they cover Silvertrac.

  • TrackTik (Trackforce)

    Best for
    Silvertrac customers who have outgrown it and want scheduling, payroll, billing and business intelligence from the same vendor
    Strengths
    Offline-capable guard app with GPS, NFC and QR checkpoints; dispatch and command center; AI-assisted scheduling; payroll preparation; billing and contracts; ReportPro AI for incident writing. SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 & 27017 listed. Priced by sites, not seats.
    Cons
    Quote only, no published figures. A different product from Silvertrac, so plan for implementation and data migration, which Trackforce lists as services. Same owner, so it does not reduce vendor dependence.

  • Patrol Tech (our parent company)

    Best for
    Operators who only need patrol proof and want published pricing, a free tier that does not expire, and patrols that keep working without signal
    Strengths
    Pricing published in full: Free $0, Pro $29, Business $79 per month. Officers unlimited on every plan; billing is per checkpoint. Permanent free tier: 5 checkpoints, 1 site, 2 dashboard users, 30 days of history. QR and digitally signed NFC checkpoints, incident capture with photo. Offline end to end, syncing when coverage returns. An AI agent in WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack or Microsoft Teams that answers questions and takes actions, included on the free plan, plus MCP access. Time and attendance, visitor management and a client portal. SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 and ENS certified. Self-serve, no demo required.
    Cons
    No invoicing and no parking module; dispatch and scheduling are workforce management, in beta on the Business plan only, as are Man Down and facial verification. Bluetooth beacons are on the roadmap. Disclosure: Patrol Tech publishes this site.

  • Belfry

    Best for
    US guard companies that want scheduling, timekeeping, payroll and billing in one system, plus help chasing missed clock-ins
    Strengths
    Scheduling with shift offers, timekeeping with geofencing, payroll with direct deposit and tax filing, billing with ACH and card payments. Guard tours on NFC tags or geofences, post orders confirmed at clock-in, client portal, closest-officer dispatch. Belle AI Dispatch follows up missed clock-ins and other shift exceptions; Belle AI Assistant answers questions about your own Belfry data.
    Cons
    No price figures published; billed per employee per month, so the bill follows headcount. Demo-led, with no free plan or self-serve trial advertised. Belle AI Dispatch and Belfry Recruiting are paid add-ons. QR checkpoints and offline operation are not mentioned on the pages reviewed. Payroll, tax and ACA features are built for US employers.

  • GuardsPro

    Best for
    Contract security companies that want dispatch, invoicing and a client app, with per-user prices they can see before calling
    Strengths
    Published per-user pricing: Essential $5, Advanced $8 and Professional $10 per user per month on monthly billing, lower on annual billing, starting at 3 users. 30-day free trial. Add-on modules for scheduler, payroll, dispatcher, vehicle patrol, visitor manager, invoicer and parking manager. Client app, GPS tracking history and geofencing.
    Cons
    Billed per user, so the bill follows the roster. Add-on modules are priced separately from the base plan. The free offer is a trial, not a permanent tier. Offline operation is not mentioned on the pages reviewed.

  • QR-Patrol

    Best for
    Operators who want QR, NFC and Bluetooth beacon checkpoints, lone-worker safety features and an AI assistant they can also reach from Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini
    Strengths
    Published per-guard pricing: Base from $3.20, Pro from $6.15 and Gold from $11.10 per guard per month. QR, NFC and beacon checkpoints on every plan. Man Down alerts, welfare check and face verification on Pro and Gold. Built-in AI Assistant that answers questions and performs supported actions, plus MCP access from Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini.
    Cons
    Billed per guard in brackets, so the bill follows headcount; the smallest bracket (1-3 guards) is 59 USD per month on Base, billed monthly. Time and attendance and the Actions Log are Gold-only. Offline operation is not described on the pages reviewed.

  • GuardMetrics

    Best for
    Operators who want reporting, patrol proof, scheduling, timekeeping and dispatch in one platform, and are comfortable getting pricing from a demo
    Strengths
    Positions itself explicitly as a Silvertrac alternative. Its comparison page lists incident reporting, Daily Activity Reports, patrol proof, dispatch, scheduling, timekeeping, compliance, post orders, supervisor review and client-ready reporting in one connected platform.
    Cons
    No pricing on the pages reviewed. Offline operation is not advertised. The breadth means more to configure than a patrol-only operation needs.

Which one, by situation

Silvertrac still covers what you do and nothing is forcing a change

Stay on Silvertrac

Trackforce says there is nothing to migrate. Ask for the renewal terms and the product's future in writing.

You need payroll, billing and scheduling, and want to keep the same vendor

TrackTik

Same owner, broader product, SOC 2 and ISO 27001 listed. Quote only.

You need payroll, billing and scheduling, and want to leave Trackforce

Belfry or GuardsPro

Belfry if payroll with tax filing matters most and you employ in the US; GuardsPro if you want the price per user up front and a 30-day trial.

You only need patrol proof, and want the price before any call

Patrol Tech

Published pricing, unlimited officers, a permanent free tier, plus a client portal and time and attendance. It has no parking module, and its dispatch is still in beta on the Business plan.

Lone workers, man-down or Bluetooth beacons

QR-Patrol

Man Down is generally available on Pro and Gold, and beacons are on every plan. Patrol Tech has Man Down in beta on the Business plan and beacons on the roadmap.

Sites that lose signal

Patrol Tech or TrackTik

Patrol Tech documents offline end to end; Trackforce describes the TrackTik guard app as offline-capable. The others do not describe offline on the pages reviewed — ask.

You want an AI assistant for your operation

Belfry, QR-Patrol or Patrol Tech

Belle AI Assistant answers questions inside Belfry; QR-Patrol's answers and changes records in its web app or from Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini via MCP; Patrol Tech's agent answers and takes actions from WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack or Microsoft Teams, free plan included, and is also reachable via MCP.
