Read full descriptionHide full description
The SAGE Guard App is built specifically for the SAGE Access Control System for giving the administrators, guards and operators the ability to look up residents and allow their guests entry into the community once approved. This application is a utility to be used only by the community managers, on-site guards and virtual/remote guards from a call center. This is app not for the consumer side of the SAGE System.
