Top 5 Complaints Residents Have About MyGate and NoBrokerHood (And How VantaGate Solves Them)

From slow visitor approvals to ad-filled apps, Indian residents are growing tired of so-called “smart” society apps. Here’s what users hate the most—and how VantaGate delivers what they actually need.

🔍 Why This Blog Matters

If you're part of a Resident Welfare Association (RWA), you’ve probably heard complaints like:

  • “The app keeps crashing.”
  • “My parents can’t use QR codes.”
  • “Why is the app showing so many ads?”

These aren’t minor issues—they’re security problems.

Let’s explore the top 5 complaints that users of MyGate and NoBrokerHood share every day, and how VantaGate fixes all of them with a security-first approach.


🚫 Complaint 1: “Too Many Ads in the App”


🧨 The Problem:

Both MyGate and NoBrokerHood run on an ad-driven business model. That means:

  • Pop-up promotions for groceries, real estate, services
  • Banners covering important notifications
  • Constant upselling during gate operations

Residents feel more like customers than homeowners.


✅ VantaGate’s Fix:

  • Zero ads. Ever.
  • The interface is 100% focused on security—not selling things
  • Guards and residents see only what they need to


🐢 Complaint 2: “Visitor Approval Is Slow and Confusing”


🧨 The Problem:

  • QR codes don’t scan in poor lighting
  • OTPs take too long or don’t arrive
  • Seniors or guests without smartphones are stuck at the gate
  • Guards don’t know what to do if the app fails

This causes delays, frustration, and even security loopholes.

✅ VantaGate’s Fix:

  • Every flat gets two 6-digit codes: one for visitors, one for deliveries
  • No QR, no OTP, no app dependency
  • Code is valid once, time-limited, and can be shared via WhatsApp, SMS, or even voice call
  • Works in low-light and offline conditions


🧓 Complaint 3: “My Parents Can’t Use the App”


🧨 The Problem:

Many seniors don’t use smartphones, or struggle with:

  • Installing/using the app
  • Approving entries
  • Navigating English-only interfaces

✅ VantaGate’s Fix:

  • No app required for residents to approve guests
  • Hindi and Gujarati support for guards
  • Senior-friendly code system—easy to share and understand
  • Built for real Indian families, not just tech users


📉 Complaint 4: “Guards Are Confused or Not Trained”


🧨 The Problem:

Societies often face:

  • High guard turnover
  • Poor tech literacy
  • Overcomplicated guard apps or panels

Result: visitors wait, mistakes happen, and gates stay open longer than they should.

✅ VantaGate’s Fix:

  • A guard-friendly dashboard that uses visual cues (Green = Go, Red = Deny)
  • Hindi/Gujarati language support
  • Minimal training required—works from Day 1
  • Also logs vehicle entries via AI-powered ANPR

Even new guards understand it in minutes.


🔒 Complaint 5: “It Feels Like a Marketplace, Not a Security App”


🧨 The Problem:

Residents didn’t sign up for:

  • Browsing real estate listings
  • Receiving marketing calls
  • Seeing their gate app double as a bazaar

This shifts focus away from safety, and toward sales.

✅ VantaGate’s Fix:

  • Built solely for gate security
  • No distractions
  • No third-party listings
  • Just smart, fast, accountable entry control

Your gate shouldn’t be a shopping app.

With VantaGate, it never will be.
