# Welcome to SONAR

### Welcome to SONAR

Before you begin, please read through this introduction and then proceed with the Quick Start guides.

### What is SONAR?

SONAR is a **Safety & Compliance Management System** that empowers organisations to proactively manage regulatory requirements - with confidence.

Licensed by established **SaaS (Software-as-a-Service)** development company, [Everyday Digital](https://www.everydaydigital.co.za), SONAR is built on tried-and-trusted tech.

As a subscriber of SONAR we set you up with a platform account, as well as a linked web app & native apps.

### The Command Centre: Your SONAR Account

The [Command Centre - or “backend” ](https://everyday-digital.gitbook.io/sonar/command-centre-and-app-overview#command-centre)- simply means the **access-only, desktop-only area of your account**; this is where you add key team members, such as Safety and QA Officers, with clearly defined roles.

{% hint style="info" %}
Team members with a registered account can access the backend hub using their desktop browser. Since SONAR is a SaaS - it is available on the web. When your account is set up, you will be given a link that looks something like this: <https://yourcompany.sonarcompliance.com/hub&#x20>;
{% endhint %}

### The SONAR App(s)

**Your SONAR account includes both** [**web and native apps - the "frontend"**](https://everyday-digital.gitbook.io/sonar/command-centre-and-app-overview#your-app) **interface.** Team members can use the app to report findings, log flights and incidents, and to respond to any requests submitted by the team.&#x20;

[Team members](https://everyday-digital.gitbook.io/sonar/account-and-access/manage-team) with a registered account can access the web app using a web app (via desktop and/or mobile browser), or a native app (via app stores).
