American Time, a synchronized time solutions provider, announces the launch of inCloud, a management portal that allows customers to more quickly and easily manage American Time IoT-enabled networked products.
Ideal for network clock systems in a building or across an entire campus, inCloud allows facility directors, building managers, and maintenance and IT professionals to work more proactively to ensure network device uptime and efficiency, says the company.
“When operating or managing a building, you’re always pressed for time,” said Chuck Olson, vice-president of cloud-based products at American Time. “With the inCloud management portal, you can harness active clock management to better control synchronized time. Our customers can stay ahead of maintenance issues, troubleshoot faster, and maximize their devices to keep their people and buildings running smoothly.”
American Time products currently supported by the inCloud portal are Power over Ethernet (PoE) clocks and the latest series of Wi-Fi clocks, in addition to the EverAlert Communication System, a multi-functional communication platform that delivers digital messaging, emergency notifications and synchronized time across facilities.
