Comparing security radio systems
Looking at a security radio system? Here is another option
RevoNet runs team voice, live GPS, and incident logging over mobile data on the Android phones your officers already carry. No terminal hire, no RF site survey. Dedicated PoC handsets are on the roadmap for teams that want purpose-built hardware.
Where a traditional radio system still wins
This is not a pitch that radio is obsolete. A surveyed RF system you already own, in a coverage footprint you already know, is a real asset.
If your sites have a working radio repeater and headcount rarely changes, there may be little reason to switch. RevoNet fits best where officers are spread across sites with no shared radio infrastructure, where contracts start and end, or where a hired fleet of handsets is the actual pain point.
What changes if you move to RevoNet
The comparison is not just cost per handset. It's what a controller can see without leaving the desk.
No terminal hire per site
Add a new site or contract as users in the admin console, not a new line of hired handsets and programming.
A map that comes with the voice channel
Traditional radio systems rarely include GPS. RevoNet shows live position and presence on the same screen as the talkgroup list.
Incidents tracked, not just spoken
Radio traffic is not a record. Incidents created in RevoNet are timestamped and assignable, and stay as a record you can hand to a client.
Per-user pricing, not a hire contract
Pay per active user each month rather than a fixed hire term. Free for the first 2 users while you test it.

A sensible way to switch
Most firms run both systems for a season rather than dropping radio on a single date.
Walk the routes and sites you actually cover and note where mobile data fails. If it holds up, pilot RevoNet on one contract for 30 days, running radio in parallel if the client expects it. Drop the hired handsets once coverage and habits are proven, or keep radio permanently in the one corner of a site with no signal.
