7 Reasons To Consider a
Cloud-Based Access Control System
Access control systems are a way to manage who has access to an area or specific resource at any given time. They restrict access to authorized users and provide managers and business owners with a way to keep track of who enters and leaves secured areas.
In an access controlled-building, authorized persons use credentials (for instance, a physical card, a digital card via a mobile device, or biometric) to make unlock requests at readers, and these readers then send information to an Access Control Unit (ACU), also known as an access control panel or a controller. The ACU then triggers the electrified door hardware to unlock, if the user is authorized.
Lower IT Expenses
Cloud-based solutions offer more flexible pricing and help eliminate the costs of maintaining local servers, IT equipment, and secured data.
Convenience
Manage access to your facility from anywhere, anytime and on any device.
Scalability
Effortlessly add or change controls to match your evolving needs with the ability to monitor and control all access points from a single interface.
Reliability
Advanced cloud servers and powerful backup systems guarantee reliable service and data security.
Integration
Seamlessly integrate your access control system with other existing management systems, video surveillance and fire alarms for additional features, insights and workflows.
Remote Support
Remote help and support is available on-demand with cloud-based systems which allows you to avoid the costly, frustrating visits that are required any time you need assistance with an on-prem system.
Automatic Updates
Forget about expensive and time-consuming software updates and upgrades with automatic and continuous upgrades and improvements.
