“Broad adoption of Genetec Synergis demonstrates that our focus on offering a unified enterprise-class access control platform is putting us in a strong, leadership position. Genetec is capturing market share based on innovative technology and this is resulting in strong organic growth of our access control business worldwide”, said Thibaut Louvet, Product Group Director, Access Control.
In Australia and New Zealand, Genetec’s rankings are expected to be boosted by the recent launch of Synergis™ IX, hybrid Access Control and Intrusion Hardware which work with Genetec Security Center software to unify access control and intrusion functions with video surveillance, communications and more. Officially introduced in July 2019, Synergis™ IX is designed specifically for the ANZ region to address regulatory and practical requirements for access control and intrusion detection to be combined in one device.
