What It Is

SiteTour is a desktop 360° inspection documentation tool designed for engineering sites, asset inspections, and handover archiving. Its core positioning is not as a cloud collaboration platform, but as an offline inspection-record system where “data stays on your own machine.” Users can create panoramic walkthroughs, add hotspots, log defects, and export formal reports or self-contained HTML files.

Core Features and Deployment

The product supports 360° panoramic viewing, multi-scene navigation, photo hotspots, annotations and measurements, multi-visit project management, and before/after inspection comparisons. On the reporting side, it can export DOCX files with sequential numbering, embedded panoramas, and defect records, making it suitable for client handover or regulatory archiving. For deployment, SiteTour runs as a desktop app on Windows and macOS, with no server, cloud account, or external service required. Exported HTML files can be distributed via USB, an internal network, or a delivery package, and can also be embedded via iFrame into SharePoint, Confluence, or internal portals.

Pricing and Trial

Pricing is seat-based subscription: Starter is £10/user/mo; Professional is normally £15/user/mo, with a first-year introductory price of £10/user/mo; Enterprise requires contacting sales. Professional adds the full feature set, including custom themes, inspection comparison, face blurring, and white-labeling. The page shows both a “14-day free trial” and an FAQ statement saying there is currently no free trial but that short-term evaluation licenses may be requested, so the actual trial policy should be confirmed directly.

Security, Collaboration, and Integrations

SiteTour’s biggest advantage is its lack of cloud dependency: inspection photos, panoramas, and report data are written only to local disk. There is no telemetry and no licence phone-home; licences can be validated locally, making it suitable for air-gapped networks. GDPR-related face blurring is performed in the client-side browser, with no facial data uploaded. The main weakness is limited information about team collaboration and permission controls: there is no visible SSO, role-based access control, centralized project workspace, or API. Integrations mainly rely on lightweight HTML/iFrame embedding.

Pros, Cons, and Best Fit

Its strengths are strong data sovereignty, offline usability, portable deliverables, transparent pricing, and no usage-based billing. Its weaknesses are limited disclosure around cloud collaboration, automatic sync, open APIs, and enterprise-grade permission capabilities. It is better suited to teams in rail, utilities, civil engineering, and facilities inspection that are sensitive about data leaving their environment and need local audit trails plus report handover. It is less suitable for organizations seeking real-time multi-user collaboration and large-scale cloud-based project management.

Access from China and Alternatives

The collected text does not show information about access from mainland China, payment methods, or localization support, so its accessibility status is unknown. If procurement may be affected by cross-border network conditions, GBP payments, or compliance requirements, you may also evaluate Matterport, OpenSpace, Cupix, SiteScape, and domestic digital construction-site or engineering image-inspection systems.
