How Brivo Mercury Solutions Makes Cloud Migration A Breeze

Enterprise organizations everywhere are looking for solutions to modernize their physical security, break down security silos, and embrace a frictionless user experience. This urgent need is why cloud-based security is outpacing and outperforming traditional on-premise systems. Unlike outdated systems that require constant manual updates, costly hardware, and dedicated IT resources, cloud-based security offers continuous up-to-date protection, unified management, and significant cost savings.

Why Cloud-Based Security?

Moving your physical security systems to the cloud offers a range of benefits that give businesses the power to operate more efficiently, securely, and intelligently:

Despite the many benefits, there are some who still are hesitant about cost. However, the transition to a cloud-based environment can actually lead to cost-savings. Brivo Mercury Solutions allow you to bring your existing access control hardware into the cloud, preserving your investments and preparing your security for the future.

Brivo’s Solution: Leverage Your Existing Hardware

One of the biggest concerns with upgrading security is the cost and disruption of replacing existing hardware. Enterprise organizations know their security is outdated, but they may not have the time, budget, or staff resources to completely replace their legacy systems. Brivo Mercury Solutions minimizes the need for a complete rip and replace.

With an estimated 5 million Mercury panels in use today, globally, Brivo enables you to easily convert existing on-premise security solutions to cloud access control. The Brivo Mercury Provisioning Tool is a cloud-hosted service that makes it easy to convert control panels in minutes. Brivo Mercury Solutions meet users where they are by offering physical security solutions that deliver the power of Brivo Security Suite, without locking users into one hardware manufacturer.

Brivo Mercury Solutions provide users a path to easily transition existing Mercury control panels
from competitive systems, while also allowing the expansion of existing Mercury-based systems
with Brivo OEM Mercury panels.

Access control is the necessary foundation to any physical security strategy. That’s why prioritizing the migration of your access control to the cloud first with Brivo Mercury Solutions is so vital. By establishing a robust cloud-based access control solution first, you create the essential framework for a unified dashboard that connects all your security solutions into a single pane-of-glass for faster, more informed decision making.
