Choose a deployment that fits your operation: web, iOS, Android, Windows, API or self-hosted. Platform support differs by listing.
Check the platform names before buying, especially when staff need mobile access or an API connection.
Review doors and access rules
Compare the published door limit for the system you are considering. The limit helps match a tool to the size of your site.
Check support for mobile credentials and access schedules. These fields show how people can enter and when rules can apply.
Check records and directory links
Review audit log retention to understand how long entry records remain available. Compare the stated period before selecting a system.
Directory sync can connect access records with an existing directory. Check whether the listing supports the directory connection you need.
