I am a resident in a community that uses this software for access of visitors and vendors. I am not involved in a business that uses this software. > > **Cons**: Editing existing guests/visitors isn't as easy as it should be. Sometimes it is just easier to delete and start over than to try to edit (i.e. a name, etc.) > > Love its ease of use. Saves a lot of time ----- ### "Easy Access" — 5.0/5 > **Sandra** | *March 2, 2020* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: no need to have to wait for someone to answer my call or get the spelling of a name wrong, I simply add the guests name myself and the length of their stay and voila\! it is done. More time is saved, And the added feature that I am notified when a guest arrives is a bonus. > > **Cons**: forgot password and it took us a few days to figure out how to reset it, but once we were sent an email it was easy. ----- ### "Gate Sentry" — 3.0/5 > **Cory** | *February 28, 2020* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ability to add guests from my phone with ease > > **Cons**: The alerts only comento my email text would be better ----- ### "The Woods Community Gate Guard System" — 5.0/5 > **Kathleen** | *February 20, 2020* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy to add guests, both temporary \& permanent as well as vendors coming to the house to do repairs or services > > **Cons**: Can't think a thing that I would change with the site ----- ### "Great App, a little clunky" — 4.0/5 > **Garrett** | *August 27, 2019* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The app is intuitive and reliable. It consistently notified me of a visitors entry to the neighborhood and adding visitors and vendors was easy. > > **Cons**: The interface, while easy to use, is admittedly clunky and appears it could use a UI update. > > Overall my experience with Gate Sentry has been a positive one. I would recommend the app to any community looking to improve their entry process. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/114569/gate-sentry?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/114569/gate-sentry) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | ----- ## Structured Data
