Gate Booker vs Arrivy
Arrivy for Field Crews. Gate Booker for Un-Onboarded Vendors.
Arrivy is a capable field-service and warehouse dock scheduling platform when you enroll your own drivers and crews. Festival and arena gates fail that model: caterers, AV, and local haulers show up once and never join your fleet app.
Where Arrivy excels
- Field-service style tracking for enrolled drivers and crews
- Warehouse dock scheduling when the operator controls the fleet
- Ops visibility for companies that already manage their people in-app
Where Arrivy breaks down for events
- Closed enrollment model — independent vendors will not install your ops app
- Wrong architecture for one-night third-party freight at a pop-up perimeter
- Not a lightweight SMS booking link for un-onboarded vendors
- Field/yard ops ≠ temporary festival gate control
The Gate Booker difference
- Open web booking — no driver app, no corporate account
- Optional SMS QR passes for people who only work your site once
- Mapped temporary staging zones shared with every vendor
- Built for gate supervisors, not only enrolled field crews
Running a festival or arena load-in next month?
Do not force independent vendors through a two-week enterprise onboarding portal. Self-serve temporary gate logistics — pin, link, book, verify.
