Inside, we examine the offering:

  • LenelS2 Elements Positioning
  • Includes Connector To OnGuard
  • Uses Web Portal Interface but No Client or App
  • Requires New LenelS2 Dealer Agreements
  • System Pricing
  • Uses BlueDiamond Touchless, Mobile Access
  • Versus Brivo, Feenics, and Openpath
