Last month we blogged about the importance of having a scalable camera system. Since growing your businesses is what we start our businesses for, having a scalable access control system is just as important.
When selecting the correct access control system for your business, you’ll want to assess your needs, determine the type, consider the features, know about future trends, and ensure the access control system you choose can adapt to your growing needs. Let’s review 5 potential growing needs:
User Capacity
As your business grows, your team will grow. Make sure you select a system that will allow you to add additional users. If not, the need for an expensive hardware upgrade might be required, and you’ll want to avoid that.
Remote Management
Scalable systems should support remote access, allowing you to manage new locations or teams without being on-site.
Modular Expansion
With more people, you’ll need more room to put them. Adding onto your building will include new doors and entry points that need to become secure. Opt for a system that allows for these additional entry points to be added.
Integration Capabilities
Select a system that integrates with other business tools like HR management software, visitor management systems, or IoT devices. We talked about future trends in a previous blog, and that includes integration technologies like AI-powered analytics and advanced biometrics.
Licensing and Fees
Understand the licensing model—some systems charge per user, while others offer flat fees. Avoid systems with hidden costs for adding users or features.
In 2023 a record-breaking 5.5 million applications were filled for new businesses across the U.S. Now that you’ve prepared yourself to have access controls installed, are you able to select a scalable system?
