The vendor's pages describe a cloud service recording who is on site, with kiosk or smartphone sign-in for visitors, contractors and employees, host arrival alerts, contractor inductions with expiry tracking, and an evacuation tool for roll calls by zone. They also describe SOS and panic alerts, overdue alerts for lone workers, and integrations with access control, directories and an API.
Built from vendor sources checked ; AI-assisted drafting. Documentation review, not a hands-on test. How pages are made
Organisations with one or several sites needing visitor and contractor control, an emergency on-site list and lone worker alerts in one subscription. The pages describe presence, induction and evacuation, not other safety management functions. Offline use is not described. The visitor and pricing pages show different entry prices, and the security page cites the 2013 ISO 27001 edition, so ask for the current certificate.
Watch for: Offline operation is not described. Entry price differs between two vendor pages, and paid add-ons exist. Functions beyond presence, inductions and evacuation are not described.
Published price: USD 60 per month for one location on the Small plan, or USD 634 per year. Free trial documented. Sources checked .
Vendor visuals—not a QHSEtech hands-on test.
MRI OnLocation is the name MRI Software's pages use today for the product sold as WhosOnLocation; page titles read "Formerly WhosOnLocation" and "Was WhosOnLocation". MRI Software announced the acquisition of the New Zealand company on 4 March 2021; the release gives no terms. This profile covers the people presence applications only, not the separate Footfall Analytics module on the OnLocation Suite page. Visitor, contractor and employee sign-in, inductions, emergency roll call and lone worker alerts; excludes the Footfall Analytics module.
