Nedap and Milestone have announced a strategic partnership and at Security Essen they showed Nedap’s AEOS Access Control platform integration with Milestone’s XProtect Video Management System on their mutual stands. The integration enhances usability and offers ultimate choice of freedom.
“In the past 35 years, we’ve seen the world changing,” says Jeroen Harmsen, technology partner manager at Nedap. “From our experiences in 72 countries and systems ranging from one to tens of thousands of doors on multiple sites, we know end-users need flexibility to respond to that relentless change. That’s why we developed AEOS as an open platform. We offer our own, very powerful access control systems topped off with state of the art integrations with biometric, wireless locking, elevator and video management systems, such as Milestone’s xProtect.
The integration offers end-users one clear, real time overview. Via a map display with icons, they can view events and alarms as they happen and execute the desired action quickly. The integration combines powerful authorisation management, unlimited scalability in the number of doors and cardholders and freedom of choice in third party integration possibilities of AEOS with the advanced video functionality of Milestone. This adds value for end-users as they can put together a security system that fits their needs, now and in the future, without suffering from vendor lock-in and incompatible systems.
“This integration is more proof that interoperability and community focus are the keys to success. Integrated systems like this based on true open platform technology are a very important focus area for us.” says Thomas Lausten, Vice President of EMEA at Milestone Systems. “This integration provides value to our ever growing partner community as it enables them to deliver the highest quality systems based on true open platform technology.”
