9 HITEC Product Spotlight ProAccess SPACE Jump Ahead With SALTO s ProAccess SPACE Software ProAccess SPACE, which is not only user friendly and simple to use, brings a superior level of flexibility and capability to access control management. Recent mobile access integrations have added superior efficiency and convenience. Designed to build on the established SALTO ProAccess and HAMS software family, SPACE is web-based software with an easy to install SQL database engine embedded inside. SPACE s modular design has customer-specific activation codes at its center, letting users choose and pay for just the features and functions they need now, with the flexibility to upgrade accordingly at a later date as their needs grow. Importantly, this scalable philosophy also means that current SALTO customers with ProAccess or HAMS software can upgrade easily to SPACE in order to take advantage of SPACE's additional features and functionality. And because it has a web-based, user-centered interface, it means the system can be managed or operated from different workstations simultaneously without risk of database corruption. No need to install the software in all operator PCs, but rather simply install SALTO ProAccess SPACE Service on one server or computer, and then give access to other authorized computers inside the network. SPACE works with all standard web browsers and can be used with Windows tablets. Please visit the SALTO HITEC 2016 Booth 1339 for a live demo. ### HITEC 2016 Press Kit / Page 9 of 10
