OnDuty in Practice Test: 96% Say – Work Has Become Easier
Digital solutions in the security environment must achieve one primary goal: function in the field. Not in presentations or concepts – but where time pressure, responsibility, and operational complexity come together.
As part of an employee survey of 100 employees from security companies who actively use OnDuty, 30 individuals participated. The results present a clear picture: OnDuty creates measurable added value in everyday operations.
Efficiency Gains from the Employees' Perspective
A central result of the survey is the noticeable reduction of administrative effort in daily operations.
The most frequently mentioned benefits were:
- automatic check-in and check-out processes with GPS verification
- elimination of manual timesheets and subsequent corrections
- clear overview of shifts, deployment times, and tasks
For many employees, this means: more focus on actual security work, less time for organizational tasks.
High Acceptance in Real Operational Use
The feedback from the 30 participants shows a high acceptance of the application in ongoing operations. Especially under real operational conditions, the solution was perceived as stable and reliable.
Positively highlighted were:
- intuitive operation during ongoing shifts

OnDuty is not perceived as an additional burden, but as a supportive tool in the field.

Many participants stated that through the use of OnDuty:
