By: Brian Rhodes, Published on Nov 06, 2014

Access giant Lenel has announced a new version of their management platform OnGuard 7.0 [link no longer available].  

With the update, Lenel announces expanded support for third-party access controllers, fire alarms, and elevator systems. They also are claiming quicker routing of cardholder verification details and overall tighter integration with customer IT environments.

However, what impact will this have? We address that question in this note.

Another feature change is in the Forms Designer. When a change is made to teh form where a new data field is added or modified in most cases it required a full download to all regions. In Onguard 7, A specific forms download is featured meaning that the long tedious process of full download is no longer required. A complete forms change to region servers can occur in minutes.
