Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
6.2 s · 813 KiBAbout 813 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 6.2 s faster on a phone.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Google CDN and Other Google APIs/SDKs and others), adding 1.8 MB and 1.1 s of main-thread time.
Mobile performance score: 54
54/100Your mobile performance score is 54. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Render-blocking requests
700 ms2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 700 ms.
Google Tag Manager adds 525 ms
525 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 525 ms of main-thread work and 738 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Google CDN adds 449 ms
449 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 449 ms of main-thread work and 736 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Improve image delivery
200 ms · 287 KiB4 images could be 287 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 200 ms faster on a phone.
Main-thread work: 2.8 s
A phone's processor spends 2.8 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Reduce unused CSS
150 ms · 58 KiBAbout 58 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
150 ms · 15 KiB5 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (15 KiB).
16 long tasks on the main thread
16 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 154 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Server response: 4 ms
4 msYour server sent the HTML in 4 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 16.8 s
16.8 sYour largest element takes 16.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “SENTRY RMS”.
Time to Interactive: 17.7 s
17.7 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 17.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Speed Index: 6.6 s
6.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 6.6 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Total Blocking Time: 547 ms
547 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 547 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.
2 checks passed
First Contentful Paint: 1.7 s
1.7 sThe first text or image appears after 1.7 s, inside the 1.8 s “good” threshold.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.052
0.052The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.052, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.0 MB in 77 requests
3.0 MBYour homepage downloads 3.0 MB in 77 requests on a phone: scripts 1.6 MB (22), images 571 KiB (15) and fonts 376 KiB (12). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image in older formats
1 image (108 KiB) is JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 0.9 g of CO₂ per visit
0.86 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.86 g of CO₂e: 102.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
All page content should be contained by landmarks (8 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 8 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
8 links without text
8 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 14 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
28 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 33 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 28 passed and 5 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
14 H1 headlines
There are 14 <h1> headlines (“SENTRY RMS”, “CAD/RMS” and “OTSOLVED”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (174 characters)
Your meta description is 174 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
4 links with vague text
4 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
21 internal links, 18 external
The homepage links to 21 pages on sentryrms.com and 18 external pages.
6 checks passed
Title: 60 characters
Your title is a healthy 60 characters: “Public Safety CAD & Records Management Software | Sentry RMS”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://sentryrms.com/.
Structured data in place
Structured data found: BreadcrumbList, Organization, WebPage and WebSite.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://sentryrms.com/index.php/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
4 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Organization data: 5 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo, description and contact details; sameAs (social profiles) would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (294 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://sentryrms.com/llms.txt (8 KiB, 25 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
11 pages without a meta description
https://sentryrms.com/solutions, https://sentryrms.com/computer-aided-dispatching-solution, https://sentryrms.com/records-management-systems, https://sentryrms.com/police-software, https://sentryrms.com/permitting-software and https://sentryrms.com/public-works and 5 others have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page without an H1
https://sentryrms.com/news has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.
6 pages with very little text
https://sentryrms.com/solutions, https://sentryrms.com/permitting-software, https://sentryrms.com/public-works, https://sentryrms.com/services, https://sentryrms.com/news and https://sentryrms.com/contact-us have under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
Local business without LocalBusiness data
Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
No map or directions link
There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.
No risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
About 260 words of copy
The homepage carries about 260 words of visible text.
4 checks passed
6 calls to action
The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Contact Us”, “Download Brochure” and “Subscribe”.
1 short form
A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage.
Privacy and tracking
4 trackers load before any consent
4Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager and LinkedIn Insight (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.
6 cookies set on arrival
6Opening the homepage sets 6 cookies, 1 of them by other companies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected
No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.
13 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 13 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at sentryrms.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
