ProdataKey (PDK), manufacturer of the cloud access control platform built for mobile and InvictusXP, developer of a community technology platform for residents and building managers, have joined forces to create an all-in-one mobile solution for multi-tenant properties.

Residents, guests and visitors can now interact with PDK access control readers throughout their buildings using the same Invictus mobile app that they use for community notifications, virtual concierge services, visitor video intercom communications and other technology-aided lifestyle conveniences.

PDK mobile credentials within the Invictus app will permit unlocking of building entrances and doors to common spaces, including parking garages, clubhouses, playrooms, fitness centres, pools, mailrooms, laundry and other secure areas.

ProdataKey system

When residents move in, building managers will register them within the ProdataKey system. Permissions are set based upon each resident’s access needs.  These will be determined by unit location, parking privileges and other factors.

Once that occurs, synchronisation between the ProdataKey and InvictusXP databases make the Invictus interface the only app necessary. In addition to mobile credentials, residents will receive a randomly-generated 4-digit PIN code for PDK PIN readers, which they can change to a code of their choice. When residents move out, access control credentials are deactivated along with their Invictus user log-in.

Invictus app

Through the Invictus app, residents can unlock doors for visitors remotely

Through the Invictus app, residents can unlock doors for visitors remotely. They can also issue temporary credentials to their guests, granting them access permissions that match their own.

For example, this feature allows adult children visiting their parents to use their phones to enter and move about the building during their stay. Residents can set an expiration date for the temporary passes they have issued.  

Temporary passes will automatically time out after one week, but are easily renewed through the Invictus app. For security monitoring, activity logs document all PDK reader events initiated by residents and their guests.

The convenience of access control

PDK’s open API gives dealers the ability to offer customers the convenience of access control nestled seamlessly within other applications and our integration with InvictusXP is a prime example, as it simplifies, centralizes and enhances the user experience throughout multi-tenant properties.”

Through a single interface, residents and system administrators can control security, scheduling, community postings and more. At the same time, the integration offers synergistic capabilities not possible through either the stand-alone solution,” Brach Bengtzen, Director of Marketing at ProdataKey, explained.
