What is a Small Business Intercom System?
Intercom systems have been a crucial part of offices for decades. A small business intercom system is a communication device that allows two people to speak to one another. Initially, phone intercom systems were solely meant to allow office tenants to communicate with one another from different suites or rooms. Some businesses still use these intercom systems. However, many businesses are taking advantage of modern business intercom systems that serve multiple purposes. Intercom systems for businesses allow tenants to communicate with visitors at the building’s front door to allow them access remotely. There are several types of business intercom systems. You only need to choose the right one for your business and Access Control can help you with that.
BENEFITS OF SMALL BUSINESS PHONE SYSTEM WITH INTERCOM
In any workplace setting, employee safety and security are a priority. Intercom systems provide other benefits in addition to enhancing safety and security. The right intercom system enables a business to improve efficiency, minimize expenses, and decrease overhead. Below are the main benefits of business phone systems with intercoms:
- Efficient Visitor Management Intercoms give businesses an efficient way of managing visitors, making it easy to support access for personnel ranging from cleaning staff to clients. Video intercoms are useful in monitoring and keeping track of the people in a building when they have access to the building, and whether their access is authorized.
- Programmed Temporary Access Intercom systems allow administrators to create QR codes, PINs, and other unique IDs for intermittent visitors that frequent the building, including maintenance and cleaning staff. The administrators can program this access on a scheduled basis to allow remote access control 24/7.
- Contactless Sign-in In the current COVID era, intercom systems provide a professional and COVID- safe way of allowing visitors into the building without face-to-face contact with the building staff.
- Access Event History Intercom systems enable administrators to access event history, which is crucial, especially in high-traffic buildings. This enables administrators to manage compliance and regulatory matters and be proactive in case of irregularities at certain access points or in access events.
- Enhances Secure Delivery Intercom systems ensure that delivery staff has safe access to a building when delivering packages. Businesses and offices receive many confidential business-related deliveries. These could be internal business documents or client documents. Package theft could be detrimental to an organization since it could lead to the leakage of confidential information. Intercom systems reduce this risk by keeping track of anyone who accesses a building.
- Built-in Access Control With inbuilt access control, it is easy for businesses and offices to manage visitors’ and employees’ access under one platform. It is more secure to manage access from one platform instead of using multiple platforms that operate independently from each other. Using one platform increases data security. It also enables security teams and administrators to retrieve better data and report access events and activities.
FEATURES TO LOOK FOR IN SMALL BUSINESS INTERCOM SYSTEMS
- Package management solution. It is advisable to invest in an intercom system that integrates with a package management solution. This allows you to manage all packages being delivered into your building. With a proper package management solution, couriers can drop off packages without the need to involve tenants and building staff. You just need a dedicated space or room to store the packages and an intercom system that allows access to the building.
- Built-in access control. To reap the best benefits from an intercom system, invest in a system with built-in access control. Tenants prepare lists of their employees and use programs like Google Workspace to integrate this information into the intercom’s operating system. Upon syncing the tenant and company information with the intercom, every employee will receive access credentials. All changes made to the employee database are reflected in the intercom system and updated in the control settings.
- Mobile app feature. You no longer have to install multiple substations in a building to enjoy an intercom system for businesses. A smartphone can serve as an intercom substation. You should invest in a smartphone-enabled intercom system to allow tenants to video chat with visitors before opening doors from a mobile app. The mobile app feature offers multiple ways of opening doors and gates and comes with door release logs.
- Integrations with other property technologies. Always invest in an intercom system that integrates with other property technology, including smart locks, property management software and more. When you integrate all your building technologies with the intercom system, you make property management easier. You also make accessing the building convenient for employees and visitors. With so many intercom systems in the market, you can find the best for your business.
