Novico Group · Identity & Access

Modern access.Without replacing everything.

Existing access systems work. But organisations have new demands: central control, automated onboarding, compliance, mobile access. NoviConnect makes it possible, without replacing your hardware.

01Sound familiar?

Modern demands. Existing systems.

Many organisations are stuck: the hardware works, but no longer fits what's needed today. That costs time, money, and raises risk.

  • 01

    Manual onboarding and offboarding

    Adding new employees across multiple systems. Former staff who still have access by mistake.

  • 02

    Multiple locations, multiple databases

    Every site has its own environment. One badge doesn't work everywhere. Central oversight is missing.

  • 03

    No audit trail for compliance

    Unable to prove who had access to what and when during a NIS2 or ISO certification audit.

  • 04

    Hardware written off, functionality outdated

    System still works, but lacks cloud management, mobile access and HR integrations. Replacement feels wasteful.

  • 05

    Siloes that don't communicate

    HR, access and identity management don't talk to each other. Everything is manual, and errors creep in.

  • 06

    Replacing everything at once is not an option

    Budget or operations don't allow a big-bang migration. Moving in phases was not possible, until now.

The same working day. Once without, once with.

On the left, two sites as they run today. On the right, the same two sites connected to your HR system (HR software such as AFAS or SAP, where joiners and leavers are recorded. It becomes the single source for access rights.) — on the same access hardware (The locks and readers you already own: SimonsVoss, Salto, Nedap, Paxton, DOM, iLOQ. They stay exactly as they are.).

One employee, one identity, every door.

02How it works

Three steps to central control.

1

Manage access and identity in the cloud

Users, roles and permissions in one place. Connect your HR system or Active Directory, and employees are onboarded automatically and instantly blocked when they leave.

2

NoviConnect synchronises automatically

Users, cards and permissions are pushed in real-time to existing access systems. No manual action. No delay. Your hardware just keeps working.

3

One identity for every door

One badge or smartphone works across all locations and systems. Add new sites or technology whenever it suits — without writing off existing investments.

The same platform. Four reasons, depending on who is asking.

Another system for me to run?

No. NoviConnect runs as a synchronisation layer between your identity stack and the hardware already on the wall. No new servers, no second user directory, one set of permissions.

  • One source of truthAFAS or Entra ID decides who goes where. Everything else follows automatically.
  • No new hardwareReaders, cylinders and controllers stay in service unchanged.
  • Sync, not a nightly runChanges travel immediately instead of waiting for the overnight batch.

What happens when HR clicks “leaver”?

Two sites, two access systems, one click. Step through it yourself, or let a whole working day play out.

    Automated onboarding & offboarding

    Employees receive the right permissions instantly via your HR connection. When they leave, access is revoked automatically across all linked systems.

  • Technology

    Mobile access on existing hardware

    Add smartphone, QR code or biometrics to existing doors, without replacing hardware. One badge works everywhere.

  • Flexibility

    Phased migration, no big bang

NoviConnect comes out of the day-to-day practice of two established providers of access, time registration and identity — not off a drawing board.

  • Connect rather than replace: the platform's founding principle
  • An audit trail that runs from the first connection onward
  • Five languages: NL · EN · DE · FR · ES

What decision-makers want to know before the call.

Do we have to replace our access hardware?

No. NoviConnect sits as a synchronisation layer over your existing systems. Readers, cylinders and controllers stay exactly as they are.

Which systems can be connected?

The common access systems — SimonsVoss, Salto, Nedap, Paxton, DOM, iLOQ, Axis — plus HR and identity platforms such as AFAS, SAP, Microsoft Entra ID and Active Directory. Yours not listed? Ask us.

How does NoviConnect help with NIS2 and ISO 27001?

Every grant and revocation is logged with time, person, door and triggering source. The audit trail exports at any moment — the example above shows what it looks like.

How does the rollout work?

In four steps: an inventory of your hardware, a quote based on door count, a pilot on one system, then onboarding and go-live — site by site, without downtime.

What does NoviConnect cost?

As an add-on to the cloud platform subscription, per connected legacy system and based on its door count — from €156 a month, plus a one-off €1,500 implementation. The calculator above shows your case.

Can we start with one site?

Yes, that is what the platform is built for. One system or one site first, the rest when budget and operations allow. No big bang, no write-offs.
