ACCESS CONTROL Gallagher security for SMB – App based business security at your fingertips
For small to medium business owners, there is a growing demand for cloud-based security solutions that are flexible enough to be managed remotely through an app, while also offering control and user management capabilities.
Gallagher security for SMB is a cloud-based solution designed to satisfy the needs of small-medium business owners by providing the freedom to manage their security from anywhere, anytime, with an easyto-use app.
“Gallagher’s cloud solution is uniquely positioned to offer customers the high level of security and performance that wired systems provide, with the added benefits of cloud hosting,” says Brad Small, Regional Manager for NZ and the Pacific Islands. “With Gallagher SMB, businesses can enjoy the advantages of automatic firmware updates, instantaneous deployment of new features, built in cyber security, and secure storage of site configuration.
Gallagher SMB gives customers complete site security control at their fingertips. From one smartphone app, they can arm and disarm alarms, manage unlimited users, control doors, receive alarm notifications with video verification, as well as an optional guarding service when hands-off security is required. As a mobile-run solution, the app can utilise the built-in security of the device – fingerprint, passcode, or face recognition - to prevent use from unauthorised people, increasing the level of security. In addition, flexible guard service functionality and the ability to provide unlimited credentials presents a considerable cost-saving for businesses.
Customers can also manage multiple premises, whether both business and home security, from one place and through one provider. By simply installing a system in each location, several sites can benefit from and be managed through the same Gallagher SMB app.
Large complex sites have different requirements to small and medium business owners for validating and responding to access control and alarms. Gallagher security for SMB puts the control in the hands of the customer to manage their site to the level they require, providing them with real-time information to make an informed decision and respond depending on the situation. Through real-time incident management, users can see which sensors have activated and where, and view video to confirm whether further action is needed. False alarms can be quickly silenced and closed, and if a guard is required to check out the situation first-hand, one can be requested directly from the app.
Selected installation partners are fully trained by Gallagher to install and service the SMB product, mirroring the model that Gallagher chose for its wellknown Command Centre solution.
“Gallagher SMB has been developed out of a clear need and will help shape the new norm and expectation around SMB customers,” says Mike McKim, Provincial Manager at Aotea Security, and Install Partner for Gallagher security for SMB. “It gives a secure environment for our customers information and configurations, an evolving eco-system of small to medium business specific enhancements, and a platform from which we can provide confidence to customers through ongoing research and development.”
