“I was fortunate to have prior experience with Evolv and understood the differences between x-ray and metal detector technologies and Evolv’s AI-driven approach. Unlike those legacy screening systems, Evolv creates a frictionless, freeflowing ingress process.”

“We have a unique situation as we have students of all ages arriving at the school. We have a north and south entrance. The South entrance is a drop-off point for parents and buses and opens at the beginning and end of the school day, whereas the North entrance is …

“We adhere to the Illinois protocol that bans handguns in public buildings. But we never found any since we never checked anyone. Other theaters in the Chicago area had implemented Evolv Express systems and our executive management team had visited those sites and seen the Express in action. Our General …

"Since deploying Evolv, the number of metal objects that we’ve detected run into the tens of thousands. We were almost in shock at the number of weapons we found. It was the equivalent of having a Damocles sword hanging over our heads but most of us were unaware of how …

“Workplace violence has become a growing concern over the past decade. During and after the pandemic, we saw a heightening of people’s emotions. Isolation during the pandemic negatively impacted people’s behavior and conduct. Unfortunately, this translated into a rise in violence towards hospital staff.”

“The entire deployment process was outstanding. It was amazing to see the equipment arrive on site and then go through the training process with the Evolv and Convergint teams.”

“Evolv plays a huge role in helping us to feel more comfortable and confident at work, knowing there is a reduced chance we will be injured by someone brandishing a weapon. It is absolutely wonderful that we finally have security screening for weapons in our Emergency Departments.”

“When some of our patients or visitors to come our Emergency Departments, they may be having the worst day of their life. People’s emotions run high. People do stupid things. Evolv helps us prevent bad things from happening.”

“Having Evolv systems in place makes our patients feel safe, and our staff feels safe and able to deliver the care our patients need rather than worrying about their safety. We are very proud to be the first hospital Emergency Department in Canada to implement Evolv.”

“I feel very honored to be part of a hospital that is taking extra steps to protect is staff and patients. In the past, we didn’t know what we would encounter when coming to work. Evolv makes it much easier for us to do so. It helps lift that uncertainty. …

“I not only reached out to the references they gave me, but also spoke to some customers they didn’t provide me. I wanted an objective assessment—the good and the bad. The feedback was fantastic. Every reference was very positive about both the technology and the relationship they have with Evolv.”

“When we opened the doors, patrons started streaming through the Express lanes and proceeding to ticketing. The lines faded away. Within 15 minutes, there was a positive vibe across the entire staff in the building.”

“Over the past four or five years, due to the increase in violence in healthcare, we have received a lot of feedback from our doctors and nurses on the need for tighter security screening. In particular, based on the annual Culture Survey that we conduct with our staff, weapons screening …

“Would think that we wouldn’t have detected any weapons due to the demographics of our guests, but we found a handgun in an older lady’s purse that night, which really shined the light on our decision. Since that first event, we’ve found some additional handguns and knives.”

"I had experienced Evolv in other venues and knew what it was capable of doing. After we decided to implement them, I counted down the days until we went live. I knew they would transform our guest experience coming into the building.”
