Special Event | Ajax systems: Comfort Zone
Ajax Systems has surprised their customers once again in its fourth Special Event: Comfort Zone.
In this event the company introduced a new line of products, as well as new devices and improvements that will provide greater comfort to the user.
Comfort Zone was broadcasted online in 19 different languages around the world and in person in cities in different countries such as Paris and Barcelona, bringing together hundreds of industry specialists, where we could see firsthand their impressions and share ideas about new products.
Here are some of the new software and app enhancements and new devices presented during the fourth special event.
PRO Desktop 3.4
The new Ajax PRO Desktop 3.4 software update allows company accounts to create security system reports in a matter of seconds and remotely, avoiding unnecessary travel and maintenance. The report will have information about the system's safety devices and fire detectors. And what is very convenient: a brief conclusion stating whether the system needs maintenance or not. You can see the hub status, battery levels, connection status and other key parameters.
Co-branding App for Ajax Partners
Ajax Ajax has developed the co-branding App for security installation and monitoring companies where customers have quick access to contacts and billing information. This replaces calls and payment reminders, as the company is connected directly to the customer through the app.
New software features for better comfort
With the release of version 2.13.1:
- Keypad codes for unregistered users: Allows a person or company to be assigned an individual access code in the hub settings, without creating an Ajax account.
- Photos per alarm of any device: The PhOD detectors can take pictures per alarm of any device: an opening detector, a panic button, or another motion detector.
Another new feature to be released with version 2.14:
- Temperature scenarios: Ajax devices that indicate the temperature in the app can trigger a temperature scenario and turn on the heating if, for example, the temperature of three detectors in the room drops below 15 degrees.
