Why Brivo Access Control Is Transforming Modern Facility Security

Modern facilities—from commercial offices and warehouses to multifamily buildings and schools—require security solutions that are flexible, scalable, and easy to manage. Traditional on-premise access systems can’t keep up with today’s cloud-first expectations.
This is where Brivo access control, one of the most trusted names in cloud-based security, stands out.

As a leading integrator in Los Angeles, SmartConnect L.A. helps businesses and property managers implement Brivo to strengthen safety, improve efficiency, and modernize building operations.

What Is Brivo Access Control?

Brivo is a cloud-managed access control platform that allows administrators to manage users, doors, schedules, and events from anywhere in the world. Its cloud architecture eliminates servers, reduces IT overhead, and provides real-time visibility across single or multi-site facilities.

With secure mobile credentials, open API integration, and enterprise-level encryption, Brivo has become a top choice for organizations seeking a modern, scalable, and cost-effective access solution.

Benefits of Brivo for Modern Facilities

1. Cloud-Based Access Control You Can Manage From Anywhere

Brivo provides instant, browser-based access to door events, user lists, and system settings—no dedicated servers required.

Facility managers can:

• Grant or revoke access remotely

• Adjust schedules in seconds

• Monitor security events in real time

• Manage multiple properties in one dashboard

This makes Brivo one of the most powerful cloud-managed access control systems on the market.

2. Mobile Credentials for Convenient, High-Security Access

Mobile access is rapidly replacing traditional keycards. With the Brivo Mobile Pass app, a user’s smartphone becomes a secure, encrypted credential.

Advantages include:
