RemoteLock: Modern Access Control About More Than Opening Doors
Modern access control is about more than locking and unlocking doors — it’s about remote access, the ability to configure systems at scale and integration with other systems.
RemoteLock CEO Nolan Mondrow chats with SSI Editor-in-Chief Scott Goldfine about the importance of RMR and how integrators can earn it with access control.
Today’s high-speed life demands that access control systems not only be on 24 hours a day, but that they be configurable and their data be available at a moment’s notice.
Modern access control is about more than locking and unlocking doors — it’s about remote access, the ability to configure systems at scale and integration with other systems.
Remote Access Control: Cloud-based access control solutions put you in control of your entire system by offering the ultimate flexibility for remote management and control. With such systems, there is no need for an on-premise server or panel, expensive IT infrastructure or specialized personnel to keep the system running day-to-day. You can add, delete or change access levels for properties all around the world at a moment’s notice using the Cloud.
Economies of Scale: Access control systems are constantly scaling as new users are added or removed, access levels adjusted and new doors are added. Gone are the days of guessing system future usage and buying expensive panels that may never be used to their full capacity.
Cloud-based solutions provide the freedom to reliably expand and contract your system as needed while keeping the costs aligned with actual system usage. Leveraging the Cloud also makes for easy multi-site expansion and global deployments that can be synchronized and deployed in a matter of minutes.
Integrability: Cloud solutions lend themselves to rapid evolution based on the lessons learned from the application of the software across multiple industries. Chances are the problems users may be looking to solve have been encountered before and already have been incorporated into the platform.
API protocols allow access control functionality to be seamlessly connected to other business processes such as workflow and resource management, maintenance ticking and even HR onboarding tools. Creative security applications that improve business processes represent the leading edge of tomorrow’s access control solutions — and the only way to get there is through the Cloud.
