Our new App allows a designated operative to access a virtual permit process in order to monitor and effectively control parking within designated schemes in their patrol area. The virtual permit process is generally used in parking areas where normal permit systems will not work. Often where there are hundreds of authorised users that tend to park on a random, sporadic basis, i.e. gym users, patients from a doctorβs surgery. This App is free to use for Parking Control Management UK Ltd operatives, working in conjunction with the virtual permit business panel allowing the operative to identify genuine authorised users or drivers that are abusing parking.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: IQBOOK at every 11 days against OperativePCM's every 3 months. OperativePCM's advantage is iOS requirement (12.4 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
