ALO runs on iOS and Android, and can be used from Internet browsers on MacOS, Windows, and Linux. To replace legacy walkie-talkie radios, we are partnering with commercial hardware manufacturers.
ALO is a single tool for security and guest services providing everything from incident management to body cams and QR/SMS to radios, leading to enhanced guest satisfaction, elevated safety, reduced risk, and better staff engagement - all with lower operating costs.
