About Gate Sentry
Gate Sentry is a hybrid-cloud security system for gated, guarded residential properties to manage and track visitor check-ins. Designed for use by home owner associations, protection firms and property management companies of any scale, Gate Sentry provides mobile app support for popular platforms and can operate "offline" without power or internet connectivity. Residents are able to modify customizable permanent or temporary guest lists, adding or deleting visitors within the system in real time, while receiving automatic arrival notifications to the app or email. Histories of guest, contractor or employee visits are all recorded and viewable, with the built-in total recall reporting feature detailing visitation dates, time, guest name etc. In addition, a community portal provides a password-protected site open to resident communities for carrying out communal administrative and operational actions.
The Gate Sentry mobile app provides access to the system for residents. Available for iOS and Android devices and capable of operating "offline" when web connectivity is compromised, the app promises to link guarded property residents directly to security staff. Promising to eliminate traditional methods such as outdated paper logs or expensive additional hardware, residents are empowered to curate their own guest lists in real time from anywhere and at anytime, while ensuring that security staff are updated with the latest and most accurate visitor information.

So far with all of the gate software products that I have used, I have found this product to be the most efficient, most user friendly model I have used to date. I will continue to use the software for my property.
Pros
This software is so easy to manage. With this program you are able to manage who comes on and off your property immediately so you get less calls from security. You can even customize your list for temporary guests and permanent guests and it updates immediately so your and your security team will be on the same page. You can even add and delete users at any time directly from your cell phone which is GREAT if you have a vendor that needs access but you're not available at the property. You can also view the history at any time. Another great feature is that when a guest shows up that you've been waiting for, you will be notified right away. This program really helps you to stay up to date with visitors, vendors, and also your permanent guests.
Cons
This is a really great program so there's very little that I dislike about the software. I would like it if they were able to come up with a few more levels of security for certain users to be able to perform certain fuctions vs. having just a couple levels of administration. IF they could incorporate a user level and you could click exactly which functions you would like those specific users to preform, it would be very helpful. Please note that if this software already has this function, I am having a hard time finding it.

Speed up gate access and achieve 100% authorization / identification of visitors
Pros
Streamlines guest and vendor access at the gate as it should. It speeds the entry process and lets the gate focus on processing instead of calling. The ability to keep a list of visitors and vendors is very useful. Great to get a ding and an email when someone arrives. Nice to have history. Much better than the manual phone process. Much!
Cons
Several warts and functional shortcomings.
User Interface:
-I am an android user
-Must 'multitask' out of app vs a simple button or swipe exit as most accept
-Primitive look and feel
-On entering app you see profile info when instead it should likely be action or action selection oriented
-Many vendors are used by many neighbors. It would be nice for the app to offer a user to add a known name to his list.
Integration
-Would like to be able to directly integrate with HOA Neighborhood apps like Nabr and Accounting
-Better (or queryable) reporting on usage etc
Rare but occaisional processing failures
-Sometimes names go missing or comeback, occaisional gate issues -trouble is we never know where the problem really is but the reputation of the tool suffers when it happens.

Overall a nice product that allows us to easily add and remove guests visiting our house in a gated community.
Pros
I am part of an HOA that uses Gate Sentry to manage visitors into our gated community. I like the fact that I can have separate areas for my guest (temporary or permanent) and vendors that visit my house. I do like getting notifications on my phone when guests have been cleared by the Security guards to enter our community.
Cons
There have been 2 occasions when all of my guest and vendors disappear. I am not sure if it is a issue with Gate Sentry or my HOA/Security company deleting everything. There doesn't seem to be a way to backup your guest lists to recall them in this event.

This would be a good service if security gate personnel used it correctly. Often I would add a guest but security didn't bother to see if they were on the list and would call me anyway to ask if the guest should be let in, basically rendering the app useless. If used correctly, the service is useful.
Pros
It provides an easy way to add guests for your permanent list as well as temporarily for certain dates. Also nice to receive notifications when guests arrive at the gate.
Cons
Guests listed on my permanant list would occassionally disappear. Customer Service was unable to help.
