With one third of residential burglaries starting at the front door, the continued seamless integration of Glovent’s estate management platform with Impro access control software is welcome news for the over 130 000 South Africans calling Glovent-managed estates home.
One leading SA armed response provider notes that of the five most common ways criminals gain entry into our homes, the top two involve access through front doors and security gates.
Anton Potgieter, Glovent Solutions’ CEO.
“Criminals prefer the most direct route and this makes the real time integration of estate access control systems with estate management platforms critical,” says Anton Potgieter, Glovent Solutions’ CEO.
By successfully integrating Impro with its system, estate managers can rest assured that the Glovent smartphone-based estate management app will always provide an accurate single view of who is allowed entry into estates.
When a resident’s status changes (for example, if they move or their membership expires), the Glovent Community Management System (CMS) automatically updates both the estate database and the Impro access control system.
Further, if a member is deactivated in Glovent, their access credentials will be immediately deactivated in Impro, preventing any potential security risks.
“It is vital for everyone that estates do not compromise when it comes to security, and the highest priority of estates should be providing a trusted ‘single source of truth’ regarding who is allowed through the front gate,” explains Potgieter.
Impro is a leading access control software widely used across estates in South Africa. With its ability to connect to various forms of resident identification (such as fingerprint and wave access systems, remotes, UIF tags, physical cards, and more) Impro’s primary function is to monitor and manage who enters and exits an estate, ensuring that only authorized individuals are granted access.
Glovent’s smartphone-based app is
a community management tool designed to assist management committees with the efficient day to day organisation of their community while also providing a single instant interface for community members to interact with their estate and its facilities and services.
Most leading estates across South Africa use Glovent to centralise their management function, offering a streamlined experience for both administrators and residents.
As technology continues to evolve, integration between different systems has become a game-changer for estate management. With theintegration between Impro and Glovent, information flows seamlessly between the two systems.
In conclusion, the days of mismatched access records and outdated estate databases are long gone, replaced by a system that seamlessly enhances both security and operational efficiency.
