If you live in a gated society, you have probably heard of the app, MyGate. If you haven’t, today, I am going to tell you all about MyGate, because it is the ultimate app for gated societies and apartment complexes. For the uninitiated, MyGate is India’s No.1 Security and Community Management App that makes communities secure while also bringing convenience to its residents. In this article, I will talk about MyGate, its features, and everything else. But first, let’s start with why do we need the MyGate app?
Why Do We Need MyGate?
If you ask me, MyGate is an app that every gated community needs. The biggest reason for this is security. Modern-day societies and gated-communities still have outdated security methods with good old security guards, register-based entries, and analog telecom. So it’s hard to keep track of who is entering and leaving your community, especially for the residents. Also, while security guards probably try their best on the job, their one mistake could result in something catastrophic. That’s where MyGate comes in.
The biggest highlight of MyGate is verified and validated entry and exit so that absolutely no one can enter the society without your approval or passcode.
For example, daily visitors like a maid, cook, driver, milkman, newspaper boy, laundry person, car cleaner, etc., get a unique passcode-based entry, so only the right person can come in. The same also applies to all society maintenance staff like gardeners, sweepers, electricians, plumbers, and other workers.
COVID Management with MyGate
In addition to security, MyGate also has COVID protection features, perfect for the new normal. It shows you the health meter of the people entering your society, and your society’s committee can mark flats where residents are in quarantine. Once the flats are marked, no visitor of any kind will be allowed to enter the house till the time it is marked as quarantine. This helps stop community spread to a great extent.
Now let’s move on to convenience or community management features – the most interesting one is Local Services. As you can see in the screenshot below, you can get in touch with a driver, a housemaid, a milkman, a car cleaner, or even a dog walker through this option here. You can check out their ratings shared by other residents, their available free slots and then, get in touch with them directly. This feature is especially useful when new residents move into the society. It helps them in settling down and get easy access to local service providers.
Every Gated Community Needs MyGate
Overall, MyGate is a super useful community management app that I think is a must-have. Ever since I have started using it, my gated community living experience has become a lot easier. I can keep track of people who come to my house and don’t have to answer calls on the intercom. MyGate also helps in following the COVID protocols, and it lets me get in touch with other people and services more easily. Thanks to MyGate, I am more connected not only with my community but also with my neighbourhood. So yes, as I said, MyGate is the ultimate app for gated communities.
