Security and Safety

Face or card access control at the gates keeps only current residents inside, and should be updated the same day someone checks out. CCTV in common areas and at entrances helps with security and incidents. Fire safety, ventilation and room standards must follow the requirements of the relevant UAE authorities and your client contracts.

Wi-Fi and Network

Residents expect working Wi-Fi. Keep resident Wi-Fi separate from the camp office and booking system, with enough access points for every building, and a firewall to protect the office network.

VOW Technologies sets up camp management and booking software together with access control, CCTV and Wi-Fi, from one Abu Dhabi team. Book a free demo.
