Company profile

researched Aug 2026

SiteOwl operates a cloud-based platform for physical security lifecycle management, allowing organizations to design, install, and maintain electronic security systems and to oversee their security infrastructure from a single centralized dashboard. The platform is described as improving issue reporting and response times and reducing paperwork. Users upload real-world floor plans and place pins representing devices such as cameras, card readers, and alarms, editing details about each device; technicians then use those designs to install or update systems through mobile applications, with offline use supported for locations with limited wifi or cellular coverage.

The company's primary customers are system integrators and corporate physical security teams, and it states that its platform is used by security teams at large organizations. SiteOwl offers a legacy "SiteOwl Classic" version alongside a newer "SiteOwl 2026" platform. The company is headquartered in Austin, Texas, with San Antonio, Texas also listed as a headquarters location in one profile, and operates with a largely remote workforce. In August 2025, coverage reported that ASSA ABLOY, a global access solutions provider, had acquired SiteOwl; the company's own about page dates the acquisition to August 2024.

Founding story

While leading 3Sixty Integrated, a San Antonio, Texas integrator recognized in SDM Magazine's top 100 integrators, CEO Joseph Ndesandjo observed that managing the physical security lifecycle was more complicated than necessary: design and project management were disjointed, field technicians lacked real-time information and clear directives, and teams relied on disparate tools. He conceived SiteOwl as a platform to streamline the entire security lifecycle for both security teams and integrators, and the product was tested within 3Sixty Integrated before being brought to market.

Business model

SiteOwl sells a subscription-based B2B SaaS platform to system integrators and corporate physical security teams, combining a web application for design and project management with mobile applications used by field technicians.

Software-as-a-service sold to integrators and enterprise security teams; third-party profiles estimate annual revenue in the $1M-$10M range.

Traction

Third-party profiles list roughly 12-20 employees and estimated annual revenue in the $1M-$10M range. The company states its platform is used by security teams at some of the largest organizations in the world, and it received Security Today's 2020 New Product of the Year award in the Convergence & Integrated Software and Solutions category. Its outcome milestone is the acquisition by ASSA ABLOY.

Latest developments

ASSA ABLOY announced the acquisition of SiteOwl in August 2025, with executives citing reinforcement of its physical security lifecycle management offering and its support of system integrators, service providers, and end users managing access control infrastructure. The company has also introduced a newer "SiteOwl 2026" platform alongside its legacy "SiteOwl Classic" version.

Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market, geography, history, risks & controversies

Market position

SiteOwl is described in trade coverage and company materials as a provider of cloud-based security system lifecycle management software serving large organizations, and is now part of ASSA ABLOY's Americas operations. Company profiles list comparable or similar companies including MaintainX, Enertiv, Disruptive Technologies, Facteon, LogCheck, and CrowdComfort.

SiteOwl positions its platform as unifying the physical security lifecycle - design, installation, and maintenance - in one system, in contrast to disjointed design and project management processes and disparate tools. It describes its map-and-pin interface as analogous to "Google Maps for physical security systems," and supports offline mobile use at connectivity-challenged sites.

Technology

A cloud-based web application paired with mobile apps for field technicians, using floor-plan-based device mapping with pins for cameras, card readers, alarms, and other devices, and offline support in the mobile apps. Reported engineering stack includes JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Node.js, Express, Material UI, Sass, CSS, Firebase, NoSQL, Google Cloud, and GitHub; website and business tooling reported includes WordPress/Elementor, jQuery libraries, MySQL, Wistia, and Zoho CRM.

Go-to-market

The company markets through a direct sales organization led by a VP of Sales, supported by demo requests on its website, industry press announcements, and educational content such as its guide to physical security systems for manufacturing facilities.

System integrators, service providers, and corporate physical security and facilities teams, including manufacturing and other facilities-heavy organizations with large electronic security estates.

Geography

Headquartered in Austin, Texas, with San Antonio, Texas cited as an office/HQ location in some profiles; employees work largely remotely with occasional meetups in Austin. One profile reports staff across North America, Asia, and Europe.

History

The company grew out of 3Sixty Integrated, a San Antonio, Texas security integrator ranked among SDM Magazine's top 100 integrators, where the product was tested internally before being offered externally. Source dates for founding vary: a Built In Austin profile lists 2017, while acquisition coverage states 2020. SiteOwl was recognized by Security Today as 2020 New Product of the Year in the Convergence & Integrated Software and Solutions category, and expanded its leadership team with a VP of Sales, Americas (Stephanie Mayes) in November 2021, a Head of Customer Success (Chris Wilson) in March 2022, and a Chief Technology Officer (Jason Griffin) in April 2023. In 2023 it published a guide on physical security systems for manufacturing facilities. ASSA ABLOY acquired the company, announced in August 2025.

Risks & controversies

Public sources give inconsistent founding years (2017 versus 2020) and inconsistent dates for the ASSA ABLOY acquisition (August 2024 per the company's about page versus August 2025 in trade press), and headquarters is listed variously as Austin and San Antonio, Texas.
