Easy Transition From Previous Payroll Company
Valiant made it a very easy process to change payroll companies. They came to out office on more then one occasion to ensure that everyone was trained properly. And they are always available by phone and quick to access and to assist in any way necessary.
CONSI don't know that I have anything in general that I like least about this software. The only difference between this payroll company and the previous one that we had that may be a downfall is that we are invoiced by them on a weekly basis as opposed to the monthly basis we were used to

Best scheduling program yet!
It was really easy to learn! My whole work team had 2 over the phone conference calls with a support member of Valiant to walk us each individually through the scheduling process. Its really easy to use and really easy to schedule, especially when there are 400 plus employees to schedule.
CONSMy least favorite thing about Valiant is not being able to schedule guards on the open schedule tab. The Open schedule tabs show all areas on your schedule missing an employee, however, if you click to schedule an employee in the open schedule tab it will not allow you. Instead, you have to the click back on the regular schedule tab and open the location of the empty shift and then schedule. Other than this issue I still rate aliant one of the best scheduling systems yet.

Not flexible or responsive enou
The system is not flexible or reponsive enough to work at organizations with more than 100 excellent employees or 20 undependable employees. It would best be described as looking for Waldo in a stadium full of people through a coffee stir stick. It holds a lot of information on hundreds of pages but very little is linked and you can only have one screen up. Example: Employee is lost and does not know where they are going. They do not know their Division as that is a notational system so they do not know it. The system will not let you search via employee number through multiple divisions. They know their name though so you bring up the employee roster which takes 10-60 seconds type in their name and wait 10-20 seconds then find the correct name among dozens of similar names. This is if you have heard and typed their name correctly, the system does not have a similarity search like modern search engines in google, so if they say their name is Dayvid and you type in David they will not show up. Finally you get their name right and see where they are supposed to be. Now you need the post information which isn't on the screen. So you delete the specific employee screen (remember you cannot have more than one working screen up at a time), the general employee screen, you bring up the correct weekly screen then look for the post they are supposed to be at as there is no bar search function. You finally find it and you bring up the note screen which tells you where it is actually at you type it into Google maps as well as the employees location and viola you guide them into their post. If everything goes well from beginning to end it takes 5-10 minutes. Nothing ever goes well so it can take as long as 30 minutes to help one employee. My company had about 5-10 post changes per hour and dispatch was running themselves into exhaustion. Which is why at 4 months I was the most senior employee doing it. Another problem is the security settings. If you have a supervisor that is a micro manager the system can be setup to allow the users to do only the most rote actions. Like scheduling. If you have a new site for example and dispatch a patrol driver to it you are declined because they are already working. If you need to schedule approved OT you are declined because it is OT. To further complicate matters the system does not have a popup that tells you why it is declined and you can spend 30 minutes trying to figure out why they are declined or kick them upstairs.
PROSIt gathers a lot of information.
CONSIt crashes a lot requiring you to constantly reset the system. It is not intuitive. It is not communicative. The information is not linked to each other. The system is slow. The system updates for as long as 4 hours at midnight which is the busy time for security. Customer service have workarounds and there are a few more I have figured out but the company does not make major improvements just minor tweaks. The system is sometimes 24 hours late reporting a late employee. Probably has something to do with Arizona does not use Daylight savings time.

Great for your employees and Unnecessary Expenses
We have easily been able to transition to using technology from paper and stamps has cut down immensely on returned mail and money. The world is running off technology.
PROSVery easy to follow prompts to setup the account up for each employee. Also love how your employees can not only access thier payroll checks but their schedules. We were able to easily switch to technology with no problem, very smooth transition.
CONSNone, especially when employees think they have locked themselves out of their account they just have to wait awhile and can easily reset the password.

Its functional, It does what it says, difficult at first to find your way around.
We were able to track our members by using the app/ System as well as the device from GuardTek. We could also monitor each patrol that was made.
PROSThe Functionality , The look of the system, The adaptability and the staff that is always willing to assist.
CONSNavigation - There are to many drop downs and this does confuse a person somewhat. It does get a bit confusing, navigating around the system at times.

A 5 start review of a recent purchase! - Incredible Team @Trackforce/Silvertrac
We just purchased the program for our ever growing Security Company here in Canada; I can say I am beyond excited to get this into the hand of my team! This deal has been A LONG TIME COMING, [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and I have been in regular communication for genuinely a year! (That is insane to fathom). Tell me when was the last time you worked a sale on a regular basis with someone for a YEAR! and held the same positive and outgoing nature the entire way? [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] is the reason we took this software on, his genuine commitment to making sure we where looked after, is stand alone. His demeanor is what shows me Trackforce is the company that will be there to support us as we continue to grow. Whatever your paying him - Double it, the guy is a legend and will be a massive asset to any team! I am excited to get into the program and know [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] has set us on the right path for success! * I will do another review down the road *
PROS* Just purchased * From what I see the Pros are CLEAR -STAND OUT SALES TEAM A+ I've genuinely never praised a person that has sold me something until now - [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] is beyond exceptional. -Your one stop Security Management software -Clear visions of growth -Guard Management -HR module -Payroll and Invoice capable (Better Payroll options coming) -Mobile Security capable (Better Mobile options coming) -Guard tour capable -Reporting capable -No ridiculous list of add on modules - This is the full pie sold at one price/ not a series of slices sold at individual prices The list goes on!
CONS* Just purchased * Simple but will be overcome: Payroll and Mobile specific modules are in the works (canada) I look forward to seeing the outcome!

Overall good - they are almost at par with their industry colleagues/competitors.
We were able to use the guard tour system and different report features.
PROSThe most I liked about this software was its ease of use, both the web-based version as well as the mobile version.
CONSI found that the software is great with regards to guard tour and reporting, however found that it was pretty much only limited to that.

Great product, easy to program and use, and quite rugged.
Ease of use Ease of customizing the software Ease of customizing the reports
PROSThe fact that the software can be quickly and easily customized to suit your specific requirements depending on the needs for the specific site. The automatic reporting function is great, especially as the user can choose exactly what he wants to receive in the reports.
CONSThe reporting feature lacks information in certain reports if you choose to not publish it to PDF, and the file is too large to e-mail to a client if you do publish to PDF to get all the information stored.

poor, constantly making changes
the ability to change reports to suit what we need them to do. customising reports and features is a big part of what we need to do.
CONS1) constant changes without been notified. 2) changes effect reports that are already set up. it would seem the changes are been made without testing the changes first 3) Very difficult to be able to talk to anybody when faults are found. 4) features that we were using regular were taken off us so we now have to go to then to ask them to make changes, this means changes that we could of made straight away co no longer be made.

Your product is an absolute "Must have" for our security company.
Accountibility of my officers on the graveyard shifts. Because of your app., my officers can not sleep at their post but have to get up every hour to 90 minutes to make there perimeter checks, hit the tags and thus ensure the area is secure and free of unwanted inividuals who might be up to no good.
PROSAs a manager I am responsible for training my subordinates with the Guardtek patrol app. Your app. is so user friendly, all of my officers are able to easily retain the training info. to properly navigate the app. to fulfill the expectations of our management staff. Very easy to set up the tags as well.
CONSNo negatives regarding the app. Our company has set up 9 new individual accounts with Guard-Tek just this year and that number will be getting larger. The only negative feedback I have is coming from our Financial manager who wants more of a "Break" in the pricing.

Valiant for Payroll Needs
Valiant Payroll Processing is efficient and easy to use. If you want a user friendly system that you can train your employees to use then this is the way to go.
PROSI've been using Valiant for 14+ years. It's extremely user friendly. It's almost goof proof. The customer service that you receive and the response from the technicians is awesome. They fix any issues very quickly.
CONSAt times you can get logged out if another user in your company accidentally logs into your division.

The software is very helpfull and a must have for the Security Industry.
Standing out from Competitors in the Security Industry, Doing away with paperwork. But there is definetly home for improvement
PROSWriting standard reports from the web application is very handy,setting up patrol routes and monitoring them is easy and user friendly.
CONSThere is a lot of functions that does not permit the user to customize the application to fit in with the South African market, Time and Attendance not very helpfull - using this function to determine the shifts worked is a nightmare, the option of max hours per 12hour shift must be added(the option not to calculate over time must be added as an option) The Company home screen can be colour coded with different site colours to make reading easier. There is no automated monthly payment method(Debit order system)??
