Cloud Cameras / Cloud Access Control / Smart Home

The cloud is the new way of doing business. First we used the web to connect to each other, then we used the internet to connect to things, now we use the cloud to access servers. This gives us Gmail, GSuite, Dropbox, Quickbooks Online, Salesforce, Yardi Breeze and thousands more applications in the cloud – and many of them can connect to each other.

Brivo

Access control refers to electronically locking and unlocking a door. Once we hook up a cpu to the door we can do all kinds of things. Door unlock schedule is a normal way to leave a door unlocked during the day and having it lock at a specific time. This can get kind of complicated when you consider weekends and holidays.

Cards and fobs can be used as a credential instead of a key. The big benefit is that each card or fob is unique and can be deactivated without effecting others. Mechanical keys are all identical, if you need to change one key you need to change them all. Once you have over 10 employees it often makes sense to hand out cards instead of keys.

These systems can also gather data. They have a log of when people scan their card or fob and other events depending on the system.

Brivo in the cloud

Once you add in the power of the cloud access control truly becomes amazing. Distances disappear. You can have access doors in different buildings or even different cities, your card with get you access to the doors that you have permission to enter.

Second, you can plug-in other cloud application. Eagle Eye cameras can appear in the Brivo log, giving you an image to confirm that the person presenting the access card or fob is the right person. Other cloud applications that you are already using may be able to connect to Brivo to share databases – translate that to you don’t have to type in peoples names five times into five different programs.

Third, you get enterprise in the cloud. The same software, the same security and the same features that enterprise level users pay for you get as well.
