The GDS3710 provides motion detection capability for initiating calls or activating sound alarms. It can seamlessly integrate with any third-party ONVIF Profile S compliant network video recorder.

Grandstream security devices ensure the security of a building or room by controlling access and monitoring activities, the GDS3710 is the ideal solution for you. However, in this article, we will explore the various ways in which the GDS3710 simplifies and enhances the operation and management of any business.

HR Management Solution with GDS Manager

For businesses that employ hourly wage workers, tracking employee hours efficiently is crucial. The GDS3710, when paired with the free GDS Manager software, becomes an invaluable HR management tool. Here’s how it works:

RFID Cards or Fobs: The GDS3710 supports RFID cards or fobs, which can be easily obtained from most Grandstream channel partners.

Attendance Tracking: Hourly employees scan their RFID cards on the GDS3710 when they start work. GDS Manager records this information, creating accurate attendance management reports.

Unique Programming: Each RFID card is uniquely programmed for individual employees. Additionally, the same card can grant access to other areas within the facility.

USB RFID Card Reader: If you don’t want a full GDS3710 at every location, consider integrating a USB RFID Card Reader with GDS Manager. Simply connect it to any computer for streamlined attendance tracking.

You can program each RFID card with GDS Manager to be specific to each employee, and you can even let them use the same card to enter different regions of the same facility. We also provide a USB RFID Card Reader that can be combined with a GDS3710 and GDS Manager if you don't want to install a whole GDS3710 at every location you want to track attendance or access. All that has to be done is attach this USB reader to any computer.

Effortless Office Management and Access Control

Managing the flow of people within a business can be challenging, especially in large buildings with multiple entrances. The GDS3710 simplifies this process and transforms every Grandstream endpoint into a facility and office management solution:

Visitor Access: The GDS3710 establishes a secure connection between visitors and staff. It ensures visitors reach their intended destinations while restricting access to unauthorized individuals.

Motion Detection Calls: Turn on motion detection, and the GDS3710 automatically triggers calls to designated personnel (such as receptionists or security staff) on any Grandstream phone within the business.

Streaming Video Feeds: Monitor and record video feeds from the device, enhancing security and providing real-time visibility.

Enhances the Visitor Experience

You just learned that managing access to any office securely is now simpler than ever with the help of GDS solutions. This is not only fantastic for companies, but it can be even better for their visitors and guests. It might be somewhat perplexing to visit a facility you are unfamiliar with, but the GDS3710 offers guests a clear and eye-catching guide. It provides them with a means of making connections and locating themselves. The GDS solution just enhances the visitor experience and presents a positive image of your business because it provides a plethora of alternatives for managing guests and guaranteeing they arrive at the correct location.
