Protecting your business with smart access control

As your business starts to grow and evolve, there is an increased need to improve security and control who can access your property. Navigating the door entry systems market can be difficult. That’s why it is important that early investments in site security are open – not proprietary – so you can add new hardware and software as your business needs change, without being tied to the technology of any one vendor. Security that is open.

Access control systems are largely driven by which software and hardware solutions will best serve the needs of a business. Where one vendor may excel in best-of-breed facial recognition software, for example, they may not produce the most effective door station or surveillance for your business needs.

An open management platform means all components of your network can interact with one another. Using an open platform to manage your security network offers many benefits like cost savings, ease of use and scalability.
