Cloud-Based Software Services: IZCloud

IZCloud is a modular, cloud-based suite of Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR) services that provides customers with the solution to their specific needs. It is the backbone of Inex solutions for automated parking and car wash operations, as well as of Inex vehicle access control solutions. Unlike one-size-fits-all offerings, IZCloud’s à la carte approach enables businesses to select the exact ALPR capabilities required for their applications, ensuring a highly personalized and efficient solution. The sections below explain the function set of various IZCloud product options:

IZCloud: Access, Security and Visitor Management

These configurations of cloud services are built around the needs of security and access control applications. The security service records license plates, allows searching by license plate numbers, and it broadcasts alarms on wanted vehicles. The access control solution controls vehicle entry to various facilities such as campgrounds, gated communities, campuses or corporate parking lots. The visitor management service of IZCloud allows tenants of gated communities or employees of corporations to independently create vehicle access requests for their visitors or temporarily used vehicles.
