StaffWizard StaffWizard is an all-in-one mobile and web-based security platform that efficiently staffs and monitors hired Security Officers allowing them to work for private and public entities while off duty. This is done by selecting available shifts in the app. Clock-in and clock-out is done through the StaffWizard app making it easy for Guards to submit their information to the appropriate client to get paid. StaffWizard also has a built-in invoicing and payroll software that saves time and money. Learning Management System StaffWizard allows users to create account quizzes, certification tests, and general quizzes for security officers. StaffWizard supplies a library of tests for ongoing training. Quizzes are sent out daily to the officers ranging from common scenarios and how to handle them to rules and regulations. This ensures that your company will have the smartest officers in the field. Messaging Center StaffWizard utilizes a built-in messaging system that allows communication with employees in real-time. Eliminating the need to use other forms of contact while maintaining a record of conversation and the ability to check-in on every post in a timely manner. Scheduling StaffWizard's advanced time management features make scheduling fast and easy. Just add new officers in the app and StaffWizard does the work while taking overtime into account to auto-generate schedules. StaffWizard also has a feature that determines if more guards are needed to be hired to prevent future overtime. Attendance monitoring Clock-in and out is done through the StaffWizard app. This prevents time theft and ensures that not only do our guards clock-in on time but clock-in on time at the right location. The Guard’s current location is visible via the app while they are logged in making it easy for the supervisor or client to monitor their actions. StaffWizard also contains check-in and check-out reminders as an additional precaution. Finding replacements StaffWizard utilizes a special algorithm developed by our engineers that determines if a replacement is needed. The guard's current location is shown while they are in the app as well as the distance from their assigned post. If the time it would take for them to get to their destination exceeds the specified time they were assigned to be there preemptive measures are taken by releasing the guards shift making it available for pickup. Dispatch StaffWizard takes the stress off your dispatching team. With StaffWizards system, drastically change the number of people needed to operate dispatch. What used to take an entire team now takes one person. Human Resources StaffWizards human resources department provides easy access to active employees, certification reports, disciplinary reports, injury reports, and more. All of which can be accessed through the app. Dashboard StaffWizard dashboard is the command center for the app. Showing an overview of your company with items that need immediate attention as well as most recent accounts, the newest employees, and guards as well as their upcoming birthday or anniversary.
