Verkada, a pioneer in cloud-managed enterprise building security and management, announced a new way for organisations to transition to the cloud with its Command Connector, which enables third-party cameras to connect to Verkada’s Command platform. It also announced a range of new additions to its platform, including a next-generation door reader.

"As we continue to expand our footprint we want to provide customers with a seamless transition to our cloud platform,” said Brandon Davito, Senior Vice President of Product and Operations at Verkada. “The new products and features we’re introducing today underscore our commitment to innovating on behalf of our now 25,000 customers globally.”

Verkada’s Command platform

Command Connector is a new hardware device that provides an on-ramp for third-party cameras to Verkada’s cloud-based Command platform. For customers with large legacy systems, Command Connector offers a migration plan as they transition to Verkada’s Command platform.

Command Connector delivers the same easy-to-use Verkada Command interface as well as basic People and Vehicle Analytics, remote management, and powerful enterprise user administration. 

Next-generation door reader

Verkada’s new AD34 door reader builds on Verkada’s commitment to providing secure and convenient access control systems, with improved scan performance, OSDP v2 security, and Intent Unlock, a powerful new Bluetooth unlock experience. Verkada customers can access new software features and functionalities on August 15, 2024. Hardware availability varies by device.
