In this platform, user can monitor the door environment and even get notify when environment change.

Most Enterprises has some confidential places such as file room, operation room, data center and so on.

They need a good solution which can control and record staff who and when enters these kind of rooms. When there is something happened, they need a simple tool which can provide much more visibility and trace back easily.

The platform is base on Meriki MV, Webex Teams and MOXA DIDO hardware and our software integration platform.
The aim is provide the integration server for IOT door application.
