What do you like best about Avigilon Alta?

Excellent security feature that can be used across multiple websites. The application is simple to install and has easy to follow instructions for users to get started with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Avigilon Alta?

Openpath is a great system. I honestly have nothing bad to say. I have used it across multiple jobs and even for website security when trying to obtain my global entry card. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Avigilon Alta solving and how is that benefiting you?

Building security is very important to me as a female employee who works 12 hr shifts sometimes at odd hours. With Openpath, I feel good knowing that not just anyone can gain access to the building where i am working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Avigilon Alta?

Easy to have an app on my phone rather than a keycard (that I'd probably forget at home) to get into my office building. It's super simple to get set-up and rolling on your first day of work! User experience is pretty good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Avigilon Alta?

The only thing I dislike is that in order to use the wave function to unlock doors, you have to have bluetooth and location services "Always On" (which can drain your phone battery). It tracks where you are and how many times you've used Openpath in the past. The alternative is turning location services off, which means you have to open up the app on your phone and tap on the "Unlock" button to open the door. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Avigilon Alta solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to remotely control access to our office building, giving front door access to the building to all employees, making it easier to limit the access employees have to the office at various times (ie, on the weekends/late at night). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Avigilon Alta?

Earlier, we used to carry our badges everywhere in our office and hit on the locks to get access. I am so glad that my company implemented Openpath. One of the best features of the open path is that it provides access through proximity sensors on my mobile phone, and I no longer have to carry the badges in my hand. It is super user-friendly and reliable. The watch access method is an excellent feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Avigilon Alta?

Although it is feature rich and super practical, I am yet to find a solution to access my office door in case of my phone’s battery drainage. Since Openpath is not fully matured, we get to see bugs sometime. However, reopening or reinstalling the application gets the job done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Avigilon Alta solving and how is that benefiting you?

Openpath provides my company with a robust and reliable access control system for employees. Since it is cloud-based software, it is super easy with Openpath to grant and revoke access and remotely control it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Avigilon Alta?

The ease of scheduling sites/zones is very helpful and creates flexibility for the numerous changes that need to be made to our system each week, makes this program ideal for our organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Avigilon Alta?

One thing that I'd like to see changed is the ability to add zones to more than one schedule. I cannot enter zones on more than one schedule and have to modify them multiple times each week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Avigilon Alta solving and how is that benefiting you?

Openpath puts all of our access needs and door/gate control into one system. Openpath creates the ability to schedule areas to open areas automatically and lessens the workforce needed to run our programs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
