Overview

Frontlion (formerly Qtrac) is a queue management, appointment and check-in platform for retail, banking, public sector and healthcare, priced per location with module add-ons and a one-time deployment fee.

Frontlion is a queue management, appointment and check-in platform sold by Qtrac, Inc., a company based in the United States. The vendor site says Qtrac is now Frontlion. The product targets retail, banking, education, transportation, public-sector and healthcare sites, and it is catalogued here under retail and public service, healthcare and walk-in queues. It is not a restaurant waitlist tool.

Customers join a line by text message, QR code, kiosk or a greeter, can leave the lobby, and follow position and estimated wait on a mobile view. Digital signage shows queue status. Messaging runs over SMS, WhatsApp, RCS and email in the customer’s language. Appointments share the same line as walk-ins, and a multi-location view compares sites. The data also records customer feedback surveys, a public API with webhooks, and SSO.

Pricing is built around the deployment: locations, channels, integrations and support. Add-on modules have published per-location monthly rates that drop at higher tiers, but the Core platform has no listed rate, and an example estimate adds a one-time deployment of $11,000 to $14,000. Billing is quarterly or annual. There is no self-serve signup; the pricing page leads to a quote or demo request. The only named integration channel in the data is WhatsApp.

Who it's for

Best for

  • Multi-location operators in retail, banking, public sector or healthcare that need queue rules, routing and network-wide reporting source
  • Organizations that need SSO and a SOC 2 claim alongside walk-in queuing source
  • Teams that want walk-ins and booked appointments in one line, with the Appointments module source

Not ideal for

  • Single-site businesses that want a published entry price, since no Core platform rate is listed source
  • Buyers who want to start without talking to sales, since signup is by quote or demo request source
  • Restaurants looking for reservations or table management, which the data does not record source

  • Messaging covers SMS, WhatsApp, RCS and email, with multilingual guest messages recorded source
  • SSO, a public API and multi-location analytics are all recorded as available source

Cons

Frequently asked questions

Does Frontlion publish pricing?

Partly. Its pricing page lists per-location monthly rates for add-on modules (for example Appointments at $59 for 1 to 5 locations and $49 for 6 to 24) and an example one-time deployment of $11,000 to $14,000, but no rate for the Core platform. Above 100 locations pricing is negotiated.

Does Frontlion have a free plan or trial?

No. The data records no free plan and no free trial. The vendor offers a demo and a Service Value Assessment, which is an ROI estimate rather than a trial.

Is Frontlion the same product as Qtrac?

Yes. The vendor site states that Qtrac is now Frontlion, and the terms are with Qtrac, Inc., which provides the service under the Frontlion brand.

What contract terms does Frontlion list?

Billing is quarterly on a 12-month term or annual, with 10 percent off for annual billing and a further 10 percent for a 36-month commitment.
