About

HOOC Compact

Read full description

Was für den Gebäudetechniker die Client-App und für den Immobilienverwalter die Collab-App ist, das stellt die Compact-App für den Endanwender dar. Getreu ihrem Namen verbindet sie in vereinfachter Form die wichtigsten HOOC-Funktionen in einem handlichen Format. So wird auch bei der Compact-App einfaches Nutzermanagement ganz grossgeschrieben. Kein mühsames Eingeben von Benutzerdaten mehr (Einladung via QRCode), Webzugriffe erfolgen schnell und unkompliziert dank Secure Proxy und sämtliche Nachrichten sind auf einen Blick im Message Center ersichtlich. Statt wie der Systemintegrator, der alle von ihm überwachten Steuerungen in der Client-App aufgelistet hat, sieht der Endkunde nun einzig seine eigene Anlage auf dem Display. Und sollte diese einmal ausfallen, erhält er dank HOOC Alert direkt eine Push-Nachricht aufs Handy gesendet. So dass auch er – oder sie – die eigene Anlage fest im Blick bzw. Griff hat.
