Genetec Launches Cloud Access Control (Synergis SaaS)
Genetec's cloud everything expansion continues, with their announcement of Synergis SaaS edition, joining their cloud video offering Stratocast, cloud LPR, cloud federation and more (see Genetec Cloud Tested).

- Which Locks And Controllers Are Supported
- Federation With Other Genetec Platforms
