key features

Flexible deployment

Cloud, on-prem, or a mix of both

Whether your organization wants an on-premises or full cloud deployment—or a mix of both—our access control solutions give you the flexibility to choose. You can use your current hardware, add direct-to-cloud devices, and connect on-prem sites to cloud deployments.

Cybersecure

Secure by design

Our access control solutions are engineered with cybersecurity at their core. This gives you the power to secure your system from end to end. Advanced encryption and authentication functionality protects cardholders’ identities and your system’s integrity.

Unified security system

Do it all in one view

Make access control part of a bigger solution by unifying with video, license plate recognition, communications, and more, in one UI. See what’s happening, where it’s happening, and when it’s happening without missing a beat.

Scale with ease

Ready for the ride

Scale with confidence knowing you’ve got a solution that can grow with you—whether you’ve got 100’s, or 1,000’s of access points. Keep your existing hardware investments and upgrade at your own pace.

Superior reliability

Always on

Our access control system is built for continuous security, with automatic failover and redundancy that keep operations running during disruptions. Even in unexpected situations, your system stays online—so protection never stops.

Connect multiple sites

Central control. Global view.

Monitor multiple sites from a single, centralized system. Federation™ gives you a unified view of doors, cardholders, areas, and alarms, while still allowing each site to operate independently.

Web and mobile

Advanced security that fits in your pocket

Web and mobile interfaces let you lock and unlock doors from wherever you are. You can also track, manage, and take ownership of events from your web browser or mobile device. This flexibility allows operators, front desk staff, and management to work together in one digital environment.

Powerful reporting

All of the data.
None of the doubt.

Track and analyze key security data with built-in reports. Get insights on time and attendance, door events, cardholder activity, and more. Then, use that data to enhance security, improve efficiency, and support compliance—all from a single, intuitive UI.

IoT ecosystem

The systems you need.
Connected.

Integrate new systems with an intuitive interface and connect to more devices across your facility. Whether connecting intercoms, intrusion sensors, or IoT devices, you can grow your system as your needs change.

Open architecture

The freedom to choose your security tech

Built on open architecture, Genetec access control solutions give you the freedom to select the devices and software that fit your business—without locking you into a proprietary system. With broad support for third-party technologies, you stay flexible as your needs evolve.
