Community Boss has partnered with OpenVia to offer a complete solution for multifamily building and shared space access control. When you combine Community Boss software with OpenVia technology, you can improve security and fair access to amenities without buying new hardware.

Here’s what our solution does:

  • Gives guests with parking passes access to the gates during their permitted time.
  • Gives community members access to amenity doors during their permitted time.
  • Gives visitors with passes access to building doors.
  • Controls access to main building entrances, gates, garage doors, elevators, and common spaces like fitness centers and clubhouses.

Community Boss+OpenVia will modernize your community without costly hardware upgrades. It’s almost like magic!

Is Community Boss+Open Via Right For You?

Community Boss+Open Via is a great option if you want to upgrade your security but lack the budget for new hardware. Many new buildings have modern access control solutions, but most buildings built before the late 2010s lack up-to-date hardware. This solution works well for updating mid-rise and garden-style communities.

“Steep hardware and installation costs prohibit many older garden-style communities from implementing new smart technology,” says Joel DuChesne, Co-founder at Community Boss. “We’re excited to team up with OpenVia to provide affordable, permit-based access control for both parking and amenities. Together, we can help these communities modernize their building and shared space access with minimal investment.”
