Idis Video Solution For Anytime Fitness Benelux
An integrated video surveillance and intercom solution from Idis is boosting profitability and supporting expansion for Anytime Fitness health clubs in Belgium and the Netherlands. Part of a global franchise of more than 5,200 gyms, all 130 Anytime Fitness clubs in the Benelux region now benefit from Idis video surveillance which allows efficient and flexible remote management of the gym facilities on phones and tablets, via the Idis Mobile Plus App. In addition, the latest system – installed by Idis integration partner Spie Fire Protection & Security - also now include integration with award-winning the Idis Video Intercom (DC-I6216WRX), making it easy to provide smooth but secure access for club members, 24/7.
A key attraction of the Anytime Fitness brand is that members enjoy a consistent, high quality experience wherever they are worldwide, with any club accessible with just one key. Now, for enhanced user convenience and security, at the new location in Dongen on-duty staff including physiotherapists and instructors can use the Idis system to see who is at the door without having to interrupt what they are doing, preventing tailgating and ensuring a warm welcome for members.
Crystal clear images from the intercom can be viewed on staff phones or tablets and the door opened remotely with a simple tap on the screen. In the event of any incident or query, images can be easily retrieved along with the ID of any members who were using the premises at the time.
The Idis end-to-end approach which has proved so successful at Anytime Fitness - with a combination of Idis 2MP dome and bullet cameras, NVRs, VMS software, intercoms units, and system accessories, all instantly compatible - reduces cabling and installation time and ensures efficient system use.
Lars Bijleveld, Anytime Fitness franchise owner in Dongen and Made, praised the quality of the video footage captured by the Idis system, including the video intercoms:
“The added value of the Video Intercom quickly becomes apparent,” Mr. Bijleveld said. “When someone rings the doorbell, you can quickly see on your phone or tablet who is there, communicate and open the door if necessary. The physiotherapist also no longer has to leave his treatment room. And if a prospective member is at the door during unmanned hours, I can immediately schedule an appointment.”
“We are delighted that Idis video technology is contributing to the profitability and success of Anytime Fitness in the Netherlands,” said Carlo Kuijer, CEO, Idis Nederland. “Working with our partners Spie Fire Protection & Security we have created a seamless integrated video solution that combines outstanding performance, ease of use, and low total cost of ownership (TCO).”
