Access Control: It’s Not As Complicated As You Think 

Whether through key cards, pin codes, or even biometric scanners, access control systems use smart technology to verify who can and cannot enter your business. It’s infinitely more convenient than issuing physical keys for every staff member—and is much safer than forgoing entry management altogether. 

Yet, some business owners still hesitate to adopt a physical access control system due to several misconceptions. So, let’s debunk some of those myths floating around. Learn how remote access control really works and can benefit your Texas organization.

Myth 1: Access Control Is Difficult to Use 

A common misconception is that access control systems will be a hassle to manage. However, modern cloud-based systems are user-friendly and highly functional, even for advanced methods like biometric authentication. Through a single interface, you can create rules for groups of people, issue or revoke permissions, and even print new ID cards—all in one platform.   

Myth 2: A New Access Control System Will Require All-New Technology 

If you already have security technologies in place, we can integrate them into your new access control system so that everything works in tandem. Many systems are capable of integrating third-party devices so that everything effectively communicates. 

Myth 3: Access Control Requires On-Site Management

Some believe that an access control system will require constant on-site supervision. Contrary to this, cloud-based solutions allow remote management from anywhere with network access, offering ease of use, flexibility, mobility, and enhanced security. As long as someone on your security team has a smartphone, tablet, or computer with them, they can remotely access the system and review alerts and logs. 

Myth 4: Access Control Will Require High Upfront Costs

It’s a common misconception that upgrading to an efficient access control system is expensive. Instead, moving to a cloud-based system can often be more cost-effective in the long run than maintaining legacy on-premises systems or old-fashioned lock-and-key methods. 

Myth 5: On-Premises Systems Are Safer Than Cloud Solutions

Contrary to a common misconception, it’s untrue that on-site access control systems are inherently safer than cloud-based solutions. In reality, cloud-based access control systems offer robust security features and advantages, such as encryption, authentication protocols, and secure data storage, ensuring that sensitive information remains protected. 

On-premises servers can always be tampered with and will require consistent maintenance from your IT team. In contrast, a cloud-based access control provider has it in their best interest to protect your data.
