Compare Pulcify and When I Work. When I Work handles shifts and time tracking; Pulcify adds SIA/BS7858 compliance, facial-recognition check-ins, incident reporting and an AI assistant built for UK security firms.
When I Work is a popular general scheduling and time-tracking tool. But security guarding has needs it never addresses — SIA compliance, BS7858 vetting, incident reporting and proof-of-presence. Pulcify covers all of it, plus an AI assistant and WhatsApp alerts.
Pulcify tracks SIA licences and runs full BS7858 vetting with expiry alerts. When I Work has no concept of security licensing or vetting.
Pulcify verifies identity with liveness-checked facial recognition plus geofencing. When I Work relies on standard GPS/clock-in.
Pulcify captures photo incident reports and proof-of-presence for client audits. When I Work has no incident workflow.
