Germany verdict (TL;DR)
Verified 2026-05-23Germany physical security assessment buying is shaped by BSI (Bundesamt fuer Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik) guidance, KRITIS critical infrastructure regulation under IT-SiG 2.0, DSGVO data-residency expectations, and Betriebsrat consultation requirements under BetrVG §87. SafetyCulture leads German mid-market field-inspection-heavy operations on EUR-billed per-user pricing with DSGVO compliance. Circadian Risk is gaining at German security consultancies and DAX 40 corporate security teams. Genetec has substantial German enterprise PSIM presence. Resolver wins German DAX 40 integrated risk management. Omnigo serves German private healthcare and selected German higher education. No German-built pure-play physical security assessment SaaS platform competes at scale. German physical security industry maturity is notable through Bosch Security Systems and Siemens Smart Infrastructure for hardware integration, but software platforms are dominated by international vendors. KRITIS operators in German energy, water, healthcare, finance, and transport are active buyers.
Picks for Germany
- German retail, hospitality, and multi-site enterprise field inspections (Aldi, Lidl, Edeka, Rewe, Marriott Germany): safetyculture SafetyCulture iAuditor wins German mid-market field-inspection-heavy operations on EUR-billed per-user pricing with DSGVO DPA included. Used at German retail (Aldi, Lidl, Edeka, Rewe field operations), hospitality (Marriott Germany, Maritim, NH Hotels), and multi-site enterprise (DHL Germany, Deutsche Bahn station audits). German language product UI available. AWS Frankfurt residency.
- German enterprise PSIM-class operations (airports, transport, large corporate campuses): genetec Genetec has substantial German enterprise PSIM presence through Genetec Germany office and German integrator network (Securitas Technology Germany, Bosch Security Systems implementation, Siemens Smart Infrastructure). German airport references (Frankfurt Airport, Munich Airport), German transport (Deutsche Bahn station operations, Hamburg public transport), and German corporate campuses. German-language product UI.
- German security consultancies and DAX 40 corporate security teams: circadian-risk Circadian Risk is gaining at German security consultancies (Result Group Munich, BDO Germany security advisory, KPMG Germany cyber and physical advisory) and German DAX 40 corporate security teams. Floor-plan-native vulnerability and threat assessment fits German enterprise security operations maturity. EUR-equivalent pricing. DSGVO compliant. AWS Frankfurt residency available.
- German DAX 40 integrated risk management (BMW, Mercedes, Bosch, Siemens, Allianz): resolver Resolver wins German DAX 40 integrated risk deployments. German enterprise references include German banks, German insurers (Allianz, Munich Re, ERGO), and German industrials. Kroll DACH presence supports German enterprise advisory bundled with Resolver Integrated Risk Cloud. EUR billing. EU data residency. German-language enterprise support via DACH team.
- German private healthcare and selected higher education: omnigo Omnigo serves German private healthcare groups (Helios Kliniken, Asklepios, Sana Kliniken) for healthcare-specific security workflows. Limited German university adoption; German public university security typically operates on internal tooling under Bundeslaender (federal state) hospital and university systems. Healthcare vertical depth is the differentiator. EUR billing via DACH reseller.
- German security operations centers wanting SOAR-anchored physical-cyber convergence: d3-security D3 Security SOAR-anchored physical security incident response. German DAX 40 SOCs convergent on physical-cyber operations adopt D3 for unified incident response across security domains. Less common than US deployment pattern; selected German financial services and German automotive SOCs.
How the physical security assessment software market looks in Germany
Germany physical security assessment is the most compliance-constrained EU market alongside CNAPP and other security software categories. The market structure reflects three German specifics: BSI guidance on protective security across federal agencies and CNI; KRITIS critical infrastructure regulation under IT-SiG 2.0; and Betriebsrat consultation under BetrVG §87 as a standard procurement step for platforms affecting employee-facing workflows.
German DAX 40 (BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Bosch, Siemens, SAP, Allianz, Deutsche Bank, Munich Re, Bayer, BASF) operates substantial corporate security programs with physical security risk assessment as a core function. German DAX 40 corporate security teams typically combine commercial platforms (Resolver, Riskonnect at enterprise integrated risk layer; Circadian Risk for floor-plan-native assessment; SafetyCulture for field inspections; Genetec for PSIM operations) with German consultancy delivery (Result Group, BDO Germany, KPMG Germany security advisory).
German Mittelstand (medium-sized German industrial enterprises) is the second buyer segment. Mittelstand physical security assessment investment patterns are conservative; SafetyCulture EUR per-user transparent pricing fits Mittelstand procurement, Genetec PSIM-class operations win at Mittelstand industrial sites with substantial electronic security infrastructure, and Circadian Risk gains at Mittelstand wanting modern SaaS UX.
German B2B SaaS scaleups (Personio, Celonis, Contentful, N26, GetYourGuide, HelloFresh, Trade Republic) have growing physical security risk assessment needs as they mature; SafetyCulture and Circadian Risk are the most-cited platforms at this segment.
KRITIS regulation under IT-SiG 2.0 applies to German operators in energy, water, IT and telecommunications, healthcare, finance, transport, food, and waste management above sector-specific size thresholds. KRITIS operators must implement state-of-the-art technical and organizational cyber-security measures including physical security of cyber-critical infrastructure (data center physical access, substation physical security, water treatment facility physical access). Physical security assessment evidence feeds KRITIS biennial audits by BSI-approved auditors and KRITIS incident reporting to BSI.
NIS2 transposition into German law via NIS2UmsuCG (expected to enter force in 2025 with phased implementation through 2026) expands cyber and physical security obligations to additional German essential and important entities including some manufacturing, food production, and waste management organizations not previously covered under KRITIS.
DORA (effective January 2025) applies to German financial entities (Deutsche Bank, Commerzbank, DZ Bank, Allianz, Munich Re, ING Germany, N26, Solaris, Trade Republic, Scalable Capital). DORA includes physical security of ICT infrastructure within operational resilience scope; BaFin is the German DORA competent authority.
Bosch Security Systems and Siemens Smart Infrastructure are notable German physical security hardware leaders (access control, video surveillance, intrusion detection) but neither operates a commercial SaaS physical security risk assessment software platform. German physical security industry hardware integration leads the world; software platform adoption is dominated by international vendors. The implication: German enterprise buyers typically integrate Bosch or Siemens electronic security hardware with US/Canadian/Australian SaaS assessment platforms.
Betriebsrat consultation under BetrVG §87 No. 6 is required for any platform that monitors employee behavior or performance. Physical security assessment platforms processing employee access records, incident reports identifying employees, or guard force activity data trigger Betriebsrat consultation requirements at German enterprises with works councils. Standard procurement step at German DAX 40; surprise to US-headquartered physical security assessment vendors entering German market. Factor 2-4 month Betriebsrat consultation timeline into German rollout planning.
DSGVO plus BDSG (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz) raise compliance review burden for US-headquartered physical security assessment vendors processing German personal data. AWS Frankfurt (eu-central-1) data residency is the standard German procurement requirement; verify vendor support before procurement. Datenschutzkonferenz (DSK) guidance on workplace surveillance and visitor management applies.
Verified pricing data: German mid-market deals typically €22K-€58K annually for SafetyCulture or Circadian Risk; German DAX 40 Resolver, Omnigo, or Riskonnect deals €130K-€420K annually.
DSGVO (German GDPR): physical security assessment platforms processing personal data of German data subjects (visitor logs, employee access records, incident reports identifying named individuals) fall under DSGVO scope. AWS Frankfurt (eu-central-1) and Azure Germany data residency satisfy DSGVO data-localisation expectations. BDSG (Bundesdatenschutzgesetz): supplements DSGVO with German-specific provisions including stricter requirements on employee data processing under §26 BDSG. BSI (Bundesamt fuer Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik): German federal cyber security authority. BSI publishes protective security guidance for federal agencies and CNI; physical security assessment platforms supporting BSI framework alignment fit German federal and CNI procurement. KRITIS (under IT-SiG 2.0): German critical infrastructure operators in energy, water, IT and telecommunications, healthcare, finance, transport, food, and waste management must implement state-of-the-art technical and organizational cyber-security measures including physical security of cyber-critical infrastructure. Physical security assessment evidence feeds KRITIS biennial audits. BSI is the lead authority. NIS2 (transposed via NIS2UmsuCG, phased implementation 2025-2026): expands cyber and physical security obligations to additional German essential and important entities. DORA (effective January 2025): German financial entities must identify critical ICT third-party service providers including physical security assessment vendors where they support operational resilience; BaFin is the German DORA competent authority. Betriebsrat (BetrVG §87 No. 6): German works council consultation required for any platform monitoring employee behavior or performance. Physical security assessment platforms processing employee access records, incident reports identifying employees, or guard force activity data trigger consultation requirements; factor 2-4 month consultation timeline into German rollout planning. Datenschutzkonferenz (DSK) guidance on workplace surveillance and visitor management: German DPA guidance on lawful basis for workplace surveillance under DSGVO Article 6 and §26 BDSG; physical security assessment platforms must support documentation of lawful basis. Datenschutzbeauftragter (DSB, mandatory DPO under §38 BDSG): German enterprises with 20+ employees processing personal data automatically must appoint DSB; physical security assessment platform procurement requires DSB review. DSGVO Article 35 DPIA: data protection impact assessment required for systematic monitoring of publicly accessible areas on large scale; CCTV-integrated physical security assessment platforms trigger DPIA requirement. Mitbestimmung (German co-determination): broader employee participation framework beyond Betriebsrat consultation; relevant at large German enterprises and DAX 40. VdS Schadenverhuetung guidelines: German insurance industry technical reference rules including physical security; VdS-certified physical security assessments fit German insurance underwriting expectations. SicherheitsleistungsG and German private security law: German private security operators face specific legal requirements; physical security assessment platforms used by German private security operators must align with German private security law.

Germany-built or Germany-strong vendors worth knowing
Not yet ranked in our global top 10, but credible options for Germany buyers and worth a shortlist.
Bosch Security Systems
Visit ↗Grasbrunn-headquartered (Munich area). German global leader in physical security hardware (access control, video surveillance, intrusion detection, fire detection). Not a SaaS physical security assessment platform but the dominant German physical security hardware vendor; integration partner for Genetec, Resolver, and other commercial assessment platforms at German enterprises. Subsidiary of Robert Bosch GmbH.
Siemens Smart Infrastructure
Visit ↗Zug-headquartered (with substantial German operations). Siemens physical security technology including access control (Siveillance suite), video surveillance, and integrated security operations. Not a pure-play SaaS assessment platform; sells integrated electronic security with selected software integration to commercial assessment platforms. Major German DAX 40 and industrial reference base.
Result Group
Visit ↗Munich-headquartered German security consultancy. Operates physical security risk assessment practice for German DAX 40 and Mittelstand. Not a SaaS platform but the most cited German security consultancy delivering TVRA engagements alongside commercial assessment platform implementation. Relevant context for German buyers evaluating consultancy-delivered versus in-house assessment programs.

Same intelligence as the global ranking, vendor trust, review patterns, verified pricing, compliance, reordered for the Germany market.
SafetyCulture (iAuditor)
Mobile-first inspection platform with the only transparent pricing in the category.
SafetyCulture is the wildcard on this list. It was not built specifically for physical security assessment, it was built as a generic mobile inspection platform (originally branded iAuditor) for any field-based audit workflow, from food safety to construction QA to retail compliance. But its template engine is flexible enough that thousands of security teams use it for site walks, perimeter inspections, access control audits, and post-incident reviews. And it has the only transparent published pricing in this entire category at $24/user/month. For teams whose primary need is mobile site walks rather than full risk-scoring workflows, it is wildly more accessible than the dedicated platforms above.
Smaller corporate security teams, multi-location retail/hospitality security ops, and consulting firms whose primary workflow is mobile site walks with photo evidence and corrective actions.
Regulated-industry buyers needing pre-built ASIS/NIST/ISC frameworks, or anyone who wants out-of-box threat/vulnerability/impact risk modeling.
Strengths
- Transparent published pricing: $24/user/month Premium plan, billed annually, only platform on this list with self-serve pricing
- 30-day free trial, no credit card required, actually evaluate before buying
- Best-in-category native mobile apps (iOS, Android) with offline mode and photo/video capture
- Drag-and-drop template builder; convert paper checklists or Excel spreadsheets into smart digital inspections in hours
- Real-time analytics dashboards across thousands of inspections
- Used by 1M+ users globally across many industries, strong feature gravity from cross-industry feedback
- Strong corrective-action workflow ties findings to assignees and due dates
Weaknesses
- Not purpose-built for physical security risk assessment, no built-in ASIS, FEMA, NFPA, or ISC frameworks (you build your own)
- No floor-plan-based vulnerability mapping like Circadian Risk
- Risk-scoring is checkbox-based, not threat/vulnerability/impact modeled
- Limited compliance library compared to RiskWatch, DIY for regulated-industry customers
- Generic platform means physical security UX is whatever templates your team builds
- Per-seat pricing scales linearly with team size, can exceed dedicated platforms at 50+ users

Genetec Security Center + Mission Control
PSIM-class operations with assessment via Security Design Center.
Genetec is one of the two dominant unified physical security platforms (the other being Milestone), used by airports, transit systems, casinos, universities, and Fortune 500 corporates for video, access control, and operations. The assessment story has two parts: Security Design Center is a free design-tool used during planning and audit phases to model camera coverage, access control deployment, and infrastructure layouts; Mission Control adds incident workflow and decision-support to operational events. Combined, this is the right answer for organizations that have already standardized on Genetec hardware and want one vendor to handle the whole operations + assessment lifecycle. For organizations that haven't made that bet, the lock-in is significant.
Organizations that have standardized on Genetec hardware and want unified VMS, access control, and operations on one vendor.
Multi-vendor environments, dedicated assessment use cases without operations needs, or buyers wanting transparent SaaS pricing.
Strengths
- Tightest integration with Genetec Omnicast (VMS) and Synergis (access control)
- Security Design Center (free) for camera coverage and access control planning during assessment
- Mission Control adds structured incident workflows with decision-support and audit trail
- Genetec Stratocast SaaS option reduces on-prem infrastructure burden
- Best for transit, airport, casino, and university operations centers
- Mature partner ecosystem; certified integrators in every major market
- Battle-tested at extreme scale; runs city-scale deployments globally
Weaknesses
- Assessment capability is bolted onto an operations platform, not a dedicated assessment workflow
- Strongly proprietary ecosystem; integration with non-Genetec VMS/access control is limited
- Pricing is hardware/license bundle, not transparent SaaS, expect 8–16 weeks of vendor + integrator engagement
- On-prem deployments require significant IT infrastructure investment
- UX optimized for control-room operators, not assessment-focused security analysts
- Mission Control workflows are limited compared to dedicated incident platforms; operators "can only acknowledge and forward" per IPVM analysis

Circadian Risk
Floor-plan-native physical security risk assessment.
Circadian Risk is the most modern dedicated physical security assessment platform. Where competitors retrofit risk modules onto generic GRC engines, Circadian Risk was built from day one for the specific workflow of a physical security professional walking a facility, marking vulnerabilities on a floor plan, scoring them against threats and impact, and producing a defensible report. The product feels purpose-designed in a way the rest of the category does not. The trade-off: smaller company than RiskWatch or Resolver, narrower integration breadth, and pricing that requires a sales conversation.
Corporate security teams and security consulting firms doing periodic, in-depth, floor-plan-based assessments at 5–500 facilities.
Buyers who need a 24/7 operations platform, sub-$10K annual budget, or fully transparent self-serve pricing.
Strengths
- Floor-plan-based vulnerability mapping, drop pins on visual building plans, link them to standards-based risk frameworks
- Industry-specific compliance modules: data centers, healthcare, K-12, higher ed, government, banking, retail
- Modern web UX, most reviewers cite "feels like 2026 software" vs. competitors that feel like 2010 software
- Strong out-of-box risk frameworks: ASIS, ISO 31000, FEMA P-1000, NFPA, ISC, CPTED
- Multi-site dashboard with portfolio-level views and trend analytics
- White-glove onboarding included; most customers are operational in under 30 days
Weaknesses
- Pricing is fully opaque; reported deals range $20K–$100K+ annually depending on site count and modules
- Smaller integration ecosystem than Resolver or LogicGate, works as a stand-alone, not a hub
- Younger company (founded 2016), less category gravity than 30-year incumbents
- No PSIM-style real-time operations features; this is an assessment tool, not a 24/7 SOC platform
- Mobile experience is web-responsive, not a native iOS/Android app, slower than SafetyCulture for field use

Resolver (a Kroll Business)
Integrated risk intelligence with mature physical security workflows.
Resolver is a full-stack integrated risk management platform that happens to have one of the most mature physical security modules in the market. Founded in 2001 in Toronto and acquired by Kroll in 2022, Resolver brings the credibility and resources of a Big 4-adjacent advisory firm to its product. For organizations that already think about risk in an integrated way, physical, cyber, brand, third-party, Resolver is the most natural home for the physical security workflow. For organizations that just want a focused physical security assessment tool, it can feel like overkill.
Enterprises with established integrated risk management programs (1,000+ employees, multi-function risk teams) where physical security is one risk vertical among several.
Pure physical security teams with no broader GRC needs, or anyone needing fast self-serve onboarding under $20K.
Strengths
- Mature physical security risk module covering assessments, incidents, investigations, and threats
- Kroll backing (since 2022) provides advisory depth and threat intelligence integration
- Integrated platform: same data model spans physical security, ERM, third-party risk, internal audit
- 728+ employees; serves 1,000+ global enterprise customers safeguarding $6.5T market cap
- Configurable drag-and-drop dashboards for executive reporting
- Strong incident management with case linking to vulnerability assessments
- Available in multiple languages with regional data residency options
Weaknesses
- Pricing is opaque; cited as "costly for small or startup companies" across G2 reviews
- Implementation runs 8–16 weeks for full IRM deployment; faster for narrower physical-only configurations
- Configurability cuts both ways, can become a custom-build project requiring ongoing admin time
- Mobile experience is functional but not a differentiator
- Reporting capabilities are powerful but require admin training to fully exploit
- Post-Kroll integration roadmap continues to evolve; legacy customers occasionally cite shifting priorities

Omnigo
Vertical-specialized security software for healthcare, gaming, and education.
Omnigo (formerly Report Exec) has built a deep moat in specific verticals where physical security is heavily regulated and operationally distinct, healthcare (Joint Commission, hospital security), gaming (state gaming boards, casino security), higher education (Clery Act compliance), and K-12. The product covers incident management, dispatch, investigation, and assessment, all configured for the regulatory peculiarities of each vertical. For an organization in those specific industries, Omnigo will hit the ground running where a horizontal platform will require months of customization. The trade-off: outside those verticals, the value proposition is weaker.
Hospitals, casinos, universities, K-12 districts, and law enforcement agencies that need vertical-specific compliance baked in.
Buyers outside the core verticals (corporate security, manufacturing, retail), or anyone seeking a consistent, modern UX.
Strengths
- 2,700+ customers concentrated in healthcare, gaming, education, hospitality, and law enforcement
- 600+ law enforcement agencies, 400+ hospitals, 350+ casinos, 500+ K-12/higher-ed institutions
- Vertical-specific compliance built-in: Clery Act (higher ed), Joint Commission (healthcare), state gaming regs
- Unified incident, dispatch, investigation, and assessment workflows
- Strong report generation with redaction for legal and regulatory contexts
- Configurable to capture the unusual data fields each vertical needs (gaming pit incidents, Clery geography)
Weaknesses
- Customer support quality has reportedly declined post-acquisition; recent reviews flag slower response times
- Outside core verticals, the platform is competitive but not the default choice
- UX shows its age compared to modern platforms like LogicGate and Circadian Risk
- Pricing is opaque; reports of significant variability based on rep negotiation
- Implementation runs 6–12 weeks for vertical-specific configurations
- PE ownership has prompted product-roadmap uncertainty noted in customer reviews

D3 Security
Security operations platform with native physical assessment.
D3 Security pre-dates the term "SOAR", the company has been building security operations and incident management platforms for over 20 years and has gradually expanded into both cyber SOAR and physical security. The unique angle is that D3 unifies dispatch, guard tour, incident reporting, and physical assessment in one platform, which can replace what older organizations stitch together from a PSIM, a guard management tool, and an assessment tool. Customers report this consolidation produces 80–90% reductions in mean-time-to-respond for incidents tied to assessment-identified vulnerabilities.
Critical infrastructure (utilities, energy, transit), in-house corporate security teams running 24/7 ops, and organizations that want assessment-to-incident-to-response on one platform.
Pure-assessment buyers with no operational needs, small consulting firms, anyone who wants modern self-serve onboarding.
Strengths
- Unifies physical assessment with active operations, incident, dispatch, guard tour all share data
- Mature 20+ year platform with strong critical-infrastructure and utilities customer base
- Used by major utilities for site assessments on 30/60-month recurring schedules with automated reminders
- Strong report generation with ability to redact sensitive information for third-party reviews
- Database-of-repeat-offenders pattern: link incidents to entities, surface trends across assessments
- API-first architecture, strong fit for teams with engineering resources to extend the platform
- Customer support is well-rated for technical depth on complex deployments
Weaknesses
- Brand awareness is lower than Resolver in physical-security-only contexts
- UX is functional but not a differentiator; not the platform you pick to delight end users
- Pricing is opaque; expect quote ranges aligned with mid-market enterprise GRC
- Heavy feature set means longer learning curve for new users
- Implementation runs 6–12 weeks; not a fast self-serve product
- Recent strategic emphasis on cyber SOAR; physical security feature investment less visible

RiskWatch (SecureWatch)
Three decades of compliance-heavy physical security assessment.
RiskWatch, sold under the SecureWatch product brand, has been doing physical security assessment software since the early 1990s. The company's longevity and customer roster (Fortune 100, US Department of Defense, federal agencies) buy real category authority. The product itself is automation-heavy: data collection, risk scoring, and report generation are templated against 35+ pre-built compliance frameworks, which is what enables the platform's headline claim of 74% time reduction vs. spreadsheet-based assessments. The trade-off: the UX shows its age, the brand recognition outside government and large enterprise is modest, and pricing is opaque.
Defense contractors, federal agencies, banks, healthcare networks, and Fortune 1000 with deep compliance frameworks (ISO, NIST, FFIEC) and 100+ sites.
Mid-market without compliance pressure, buyers who want modern UX over deep compliance, anyone under $25K budget.
Strengths
- 30+ year track record; one of the few vendors that has survived multiple GRC market cycles
- 35+ pre-built compliance libraries: ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, NIST 800-53, FFIEC, ASIS, FEMA, more
- Used by Fortune 100, US DoD, federal civilian agencies, strong gov/regulated-industry credibility
- Heatmap and Google Maps integration for visualizing risk across geographically distributed sites
- 24/7 chat support with live representatives
- Cloud architecture is mature; deployments run reliably at 1,000+ site scale
Weaknesses
- UX feels like enterprise software from a previous decade compared to Circadian Risk or LogicGate
- Pricing is fully opaque; quotes vary widely; expect 4–8 weeks of sales cycle
- Brand recognition is concentrated in defense and Fortune 100; less known to mid-market buyers
- Implementation is more involved than Circadian Risk; expect 4–8 weeks for a 50-site deployment
- Limited modern integration count, fewer than 50 first-class integrations listed
- Mobile experience trails best-in-class field-inspection tools

Riskonnect
Enterprise integrated risk management with physical security as one risk vertical.
Riskonnect is one of the largest pure-play integrated risk management vendors with 2,000+ customers across six continents and particularly deep penetration in healthcare, financial services, and insurance. The platform was originally built on Salesforce and has since become its own architecture. The physical security capability is best understood as part of the broader IRM proposition: the value is greatest when physical risk lives alongside cyber risk, claims management, business continuity, and ERM on a single data model. As a standalone physical security assessment tool, it is overbuilt; as part of an integrated risk strategy, it has few equals.
Enterprises with established integrated risk programs (insurance, healthcare, financial services, energy) treating physical security as one risk vertical alongside claims, BCM, and ERM.
Pure physical security teams, organizations under 1,000 employees, or anyone primarily evaluating physical security tools without a broader IRM program.
Strengths
- 2,000+ customers across 6 continents, largest integrated risk customer base on this list
- Deep penetration in healthcare, financial services, insurance, and energy, verticals where physical and operational risk converge
- Strongest claims management and insurance-related workflows of any product on this list
- Mature business continuity and crisis management modules
- Extensive integration breadth driven by Salesforce-native heritage
- Strong reporting and dashboarding for executive risk committees
Weaknesses
- Pricing is opaque and skewed enterprise; rarely a fit under $75K annual
- Implementation runs 12–24 weeks for full IRM; physical-only configurations faster
- Configurability requires significant admin investment, not a turn-on product
- Outside insurance/healthcare/financial-services, the value proposition is weaker
- PE ownership has driven multiple product-line consolidations; some customers report transition friction
- Physical security is a smaller share of the platform's total feature surface than at Resolver or RiskWatch

LogicGate Risk Cloud
No-code GRC with custom physical security applications.
LogicGate is the modern, no-code answer to legacy GRC. Where Resolver brings depth from 20+ years and Riskonnect from heavy enterprise integration, LogicGate brings speed: customers build their own physical security application using drag-and-drop workflow design, often in days rather than the months a traditional GRC implementation requires. LogicGate was named a Leader in The Forrester Wave™: Third-Party Risk Management Platforms, Q1 2026, the platform sits at the intersection of GRC and physical security as a do-it-yourself solution.
Mid-market security teams with strong process design skills who want a platform they can shape, not one that constrains them.
Teams that want a pre-built physical security application out-of-the-box, or organizations without admin bandwidth to maintain configurations.
Strengths
- Forrester Wave Leader for TPRM Q1 2026; strong category recognition
- No-code platform: build custom physical security workflows in days without engineering resources
- 40+ purpose-built apps including risk, compliance, vendor risk, audit, and policy
- AI-driven workflows with anomaly detection and auto-categorization
- Real-time dashboards for executive risk reporting
- Active community of customer-built apps shared across the platform
- Strong integration story: ServiceNow, Jira, Slack, major IDPs, and SIEMs
Weaknesses
- No pre-built physical security application, you (or LogicGate PS) build it from primitives
- Best ROI requires investing in admin training; not a self-running product
- Pricing is opaque; mid-market customers report $50K–$150K+ annual contracts
- Younger company than Resolver/RiskWatch, less category gravity in physical-security-first conversations
- Configurability cuts both ways, implementations can drift into custom-build territory
- Smaller customer base in pure physical security; stronger in cyber and third-party risk

Trackforce Valiant
Guard force management with bundled assessment workflows.
Trackforce Valiant is the result of a multi-year roll-up of guard management software companies, Trackforce, Valiant, TrackTik, GuardTek, and Silvertrac all live under the same umbrella now. The product's natural center of gravity is guard scheduling, tour management, and incident reporting for security service firms (the companies that provide guards to retail, residential, and corporate clients). The physical security assessment capability is real but secondary, most useful when assessments are part of a larger guard service contract. If you need pure assessment software with no guard ops, Circadian Risk or RiskWatch are better fits.
Contract security service firms (those who provide guards to clients) and large in-house security operations with significant guard headcount that also need site assessments.
Pure-assessment buyers with no guard force, small security consulting practices, or buyers who want unified UX across all modules.
Strengths
- Strong guard force management bundled with assessment, best when both workflows live together
- Mobile guard tour and check-in with NFC/QR/GPS verification
- Real-time incident reporting from guards in the field
- Used by major contract security firms; battle-tested at scale
- Roll-up history means broad feature breadth across guard, tour, scheduling, payroll, billing
- AI-powered route optimization and anomaly detection on tour data
Weaknesses
- Assessment is secondary to guard management, not the depth of a dedicated platform
- Feature consolidation across acquired brands is uneven; some legacy modules feel disconnected
- Pricing reported $8–$15/guard/month for guard ops; assessment add-ons priced separately
- UX inconsistency across acquired product lines (TrackTik, GuardTek, Silvertrac all have different UIs)
- Limited fit for in-house corporate security without a guard contractor model
- Reporting is strong on guard ops, lighter on risk-scoring methodologies
