Today’s crowded real estate market relies on strategic solutions to elevate guest experiences and simplify operations for property managers, owners, and tenants. As technology continues to revolutionize so much of the condo experience, modern intercom systems, like Salto’s XS4 Com iGO leverage new tech like smartphones and QR codes to allow for convenient two-way communication and simplified access. As a hardware-free solution, XS4 Com iGO facilitates secure visitor access and communication for a seamless, superior resident and guest experience.
Along with improving day-to-day condo living, modern tools like this one provide a tech-forward impression of the building that can raise perceived value, save time, and attract a greater number of tenants.
“XS4 Com iGO iGO is a practical solution for properties looking to enhance visitor access without the need for costly video panels or new cabling infrastructure,” explains Preston Grutzmacher, Residential Business Leader, Salto North America. ” Visitors use their smartphones, while residents have the XS4 Com iGO app, ensuring an incredible and secure access experience.”
How does XS4 Com iGO better serve condo owners?
By integrating a video door intercom system with the latest in access control technology, XS4 Com iGO makes life easier for owners.
Convenience: The system makes communication effortless with hassle-free access. Using your smartphone instead of a dedicated intercom panel inside your unit means that no physical installation is required. There’s also no need to pay for replacement keys, fobs, or a locksmith fee for emergency lockouts, so it’s simpler all around.
Remote access management: Managing access to your unit is easy, even when you’re not home. This system allows owners to answer door calls, receive notifications when someone is at the door, let in visitors for package deliveries, cleaning services, or maintenance workers, and share temporary access with guests without needing physical keys or fobs.
Enhanced security: Rather than relying on the traditional intercom voice access, video verification is complete before allowing access, granting you complete control over who is coming and going into the building as approved guests. Not only can you see guests, but historical data is available for your reference with a complete audit trail showing who accessed the building and when.
XS4 Com iGO saves property managers time and money
Modernizing your building with smart solutions like the XS4 Com iGO means simplifying your life, increasing perceived value, and saving time and money. Here’s how:
Simplified management: Along with easily adding or removing residents through the cloud platform, this system streamlines managing multiple entrances from a single system and configuring different access levels for various users (residents, staff, visitors), saving property managers precious time.
Reduced infrastructure costs: Without expensive wiring required throughout the building and no need to maintain traditional intercom hardware in each unit, XS4 Com iGO iGO requires significantly lower installation costs compared to traditional systems.
Professional appearance: The condo market is competitive and first impressions matter. Modern technology like XS4 Com iGO creates an upscale impression and a clean, minimalist entrance without bulky hardware.
Enhanced building security: The system offers heightened security by eliminating unauthorized key duplication and a complete digital audit trail of all visitors, along with swift and simple deactivation of access for moved-out residents.
Emergency services access: Emergencies happen, and property managers want to be able to act swiftly and efficiently. This system allows property managers to grant immediate access to emergency responders remotely for critical situations where quick entry is needed.
How does XS4 Com iGO simplify short-term rentals?
XS4 Com iGO is particularly valuable for condos used as short-term rentals by speeding up check-ins, making management easier and limiting the time it typically takes for administration with features like:
Seamless check-in: Eliminating the need for physical key handoffs and easily sending digital access credentials directly to guests enhances the experience for everyone. To further simplify the operations, time-limited access can be controlled after the rental period, offering a worry-free way to manage the process.
Remote management: Managing rentals can be demanding when you need to oversee guest access and monitor entry on-site. This system is accessible remotely, even allowing managers to provide assistance via video call if guests have trouble entering. And with the audit trail that monitors exit and entry, all bases are covered for seamless remote management.
Operational efficiency: Saving time benefits all parties and eliminating key management between guest stays, remotely coordinating check-ins, and preventing lockouts reduces the amount of staff required, allowing better time management and labour allocation.
Technology is vital to today’s condo living. The XS4 Com iGO system transforms condo building entry from an outdated, hardware-dependent process to a modern, smartphone-enabled solution that benefits managers, owners, and tenants while enhancing security and convenience.
