Ratings and reviews

Features don't work as intended. Knock and motion notification features do jot work at all. The video recording when there is motion is delayed. Had an open ticket with gate lab that was closed because the assumption the system /app update should resolve the issue, knock feature to allow you to open door through the app, but it did not. Great concept and I would recommend it for family use for keyless entry but not sure about guest for temp vacation rental (but I am not in that business.)

I've been using Gate for almost 2 years now for my vacation rental and it's the only keyless entry I've ever had. Overall I love it when it's working which is most of the time. The best features are notifications as people come and go and video so I can see if they have all their suitcases with them so we can get housekeeping in early. Love that guests can only enter during their booking. Buy a 2nd battery. It can run out in less than a week. Sometimes wifi takes forever to update new codes

Good app, would be 5 stars if there would be an option to monitor live audio/video/microphone any time, not just when motion has been triggered or call button pressed, and integration with Nest products. Currently modifying to add a solar panel for constant recharging, with sliding contacts on rotating dial. Optional IR light would be nice for darkness. Also, sign-in window has a bug where keyboard doesn't pop up.
