    Where the two scopes differ

    These records describe different jobs. The 1Life record covers mobile safety forms with photos and signatures, controlled documents with version history, employee training and certificate tracking, routed incident and corrective-action workflows, scheduling and subcontractor administration. The LONEALERT record is a legacy and migration profile: the official site says customers have moved to Peoplesafe Nexus and the service will shortly cease, so alarm response, check-in timers, fall detection and location features belong to current Peoplesafe products and depend on the migrated contract. One record covers a current paperwork product, the other a migration notice about a lone-worker service.

    Commercial evidence is shaped differently. 1Life shows a free plan, employee-based paid tiers and a trial the record marks as verified, but its public pages differ on amounts, employee ranges and administrator limits, and its terms default to annual advance invoicing with professional services separate; the accepted order should decide. LONEALERT shows no amount, and the record warns that older price and trial buttons on the legacy site are not a current offer. Neither record lets a buyer set one figure beside the other.

    Connectivity and data handling need separate checks. The 1Life record treats offline forms as conditional on caching and synchronisation, and does not assume that dictation works offline. The LONEALERT record points out that an alarm cannot reach anyone without a working communications route, and treats location aids such as GPS, Wi-Fi and What3Words as no substitute for mobile data. For data, the 1Life terms state Canadian storage and processing, while the LONEALERT record asks for transferred personal data, access permissions and retention to be reviewed with the current provider. The 1Life record found no public API or named connector, and neither record lists a certification.

    When each is the safer first demo

    Start with 1Life when

    Ask 1Life first when the pain is paperwork and training expiry rather than a person's safety on a lone shift. Request a procedure revised within its document record, published to a prepared phone and signed by one worker while another stays overdue, and a certificate uploaded with and without a recertification date.

    Start with LONEALERT (Peoplesafe migration) when

    Start with the LONEALERT migration conversation when you already hold devices or contacts on the legacy service. Ask Peoplesafe to match each worker, device, contact and record to its Nexus profile, then agree a planned alarm window so a test does not trigger a real emergency response.

    A two-week evaluation plan

    Ask 1Life

    • Which pricing page governs the order, the Canadian-dollar page or the homepage, and how are employee count, minimum charge, administrator allowance and renewal stated?
    • Which of implementation, form customisation and training are priced apart from the subscription?

    Ask LONEALERT (Peoplesafe migration)

    • What written evidence shows that the migration is complete, and which legacy contract has been superseded?
    • Which Peoplesafe subscription, app or device covers each worker, and which legacy devices, contacts and records did not transfer?

    Week 1: set up one test worker in each setting. In 1Life, build a hazard form with an annotated photo and dictation, then fill it in on the intended phone with the connection off and synchronise. In Nexus, agree the alarm window first, then raise an SOS or a missed timer from a representative app or device and check the identity, audio and location context that reaches the response centre. 1Life advertises a free 14-day trial; no current LONEALERT trial should be assumed.

    Week 2: in 1Life, replace a controlled procedure and confirm the earlier version remains traceable, then check which people are notified before a certificate expires. In Nexus, log in as a User, a Manager and an Administrator and compare maps, history, devices and reports against your notice to workers. Finish with a first-year total from each vendor in the same currency, listing hardware, monitoring, training and professional services as separate lines.

    Worked evaluation scenarios

    These scenarios are hypothetical. They show how to turn the record facts into a demo test and what outcome would change a choice; they are not case studies or customer results.

    Hypothetical: a 25-person landscaping firm deciding what problem it has

    A landscaping firm with twenty-five staff has crews working alone on remote estates and also drowns in paper job sheets. The 1Life record describes mobile forms, training records and corrective follow-up, and does not describe monitored alarms or timed check-ins. The LONEALERT record describes a legacy lone-worker service whose own notice points customers to Peoplesafe Nexus. Write down what should happen when a worker alone on a site fails to check in, and ask each vendor to show it. If one side can only record the failure afterwards, and the other can only raise an alarm, the firm has two separate problems and should price them separately.

    Hypothetical: comparing a first-year total in two different shapes

    A thirty-employee firm wants one first-year figure for each option. The 1Life record shows a Canadian-dollar page with a free tier and a per-employee Basic rate with a monthly minimum, a homepage with different amounts, and terms that invoice annually in advance and leave implementation and customisation outside the subscription. The LONEALERT record shows no amount and says any migration or replacement must be quoted by Peoplesafe, with hardware, monitoring, training, records, term and renewal as separate parts. Request both in writing, in one currency, with every line itemised. If the 1Life order does not state which page governs, or the Peoplesafe quote omits replacement hardware, the totals cannot yet be compared.

    Hypothetical: a data-protection lead asking where worker data goes

    A UK employer's data-protection lead asks where worker data is held and who can see a worker's position. The 1Life terms place storage and processing of customer content in Canada, with affiliates or subcontractors able to handle it, and the record asks for subprocessors, retention and export to be confirmed. The LONEALERT record says current Peoplesafe location access can be restricted by role and asks for collection mode, retention and worker notice to be settled. Ask both vendors for hosting locations, subprocessors and retention in writing, then compare what a User, a Manager and an Administrator can open. If a role sees more than your notice to workers promises, change the configuration before go-live.

    What the records do not establish

    1Life

    • Which currency, employee-count rule and administrator allowance govern a paid order, since the public pages differ.
    • Offline dictation, or recovery after a failed synchronisation.
    • A public API or a named production connector.
    • A required independent closer, a root-cause method or a later effectiveness check in the incident workflow.

    LONEALERT (Peoplesafe migration)

    • A current standalone LONEALERT offer, price or trial.
    • That each legacy device, record and setting transferred unchanged to Nexus.
    • Alarm delivery without any working communications route.
    • That every current Peoplesafe feature is enabled in the migrated contract.

    Neither product

    • Which product is safer or cheaper for your workforce: the two records cover different work and no outcome data was reviewed.
    • Customer satisfaction with either vendor, as both records leave legacy ratings out.
    • That either tool meets a legal duty or audit scheme: the 1Life record says its records do not guarantee COR, OSHA or ISO acceptance, and the LONEALERT record says monitoring does not replace the employer's own lone-worker risk assessment.

    Written from the profile records and the decision guide above, not from a hands-on test. Where a record is silent, the page says so instead of filling the gap.
