TDSi GARDiS Licences

TDSi licenses its access control software by user, by door and by module, so most of what a site needs in order to grow is a licence rather than a new installation.

Two platforms are represented. EXgarde, the longer-established of the two, accounts for most of the range: network user licences, software-and-licence bundles, and a SmartIntego locking integration module. GARDiS covers the newer browser-based software, with visitor management, an Assa Abloy Aperio locking licence and time-and-attendance integration. The two are licensed separately and their parts are not interchangeable, so identify which platform a site runs before ordering.

Software is specified against the hardware it manages — see Access Control Systems and Access Controllers & Panels. For the Hikvision and Ruijie ranges, see Software & Licences.
