STRATIS Sets IoT Benchmark, Installing More Than 100,000 Units in MultiFamily in a Year

STRATIS Sets Groundbreaking Milestone by Installing STRATIS Sphere, Access, Energy, and Automation Management and Control Platform across 45 States.

PHILADELPHIA, PA — August 2016

Just three short months after announcing their installation of 75,000 units, STRATIS hits another major milestone. STRATIS, creator of the award-winning STRATIS Sphere Access, Energy, and Automation Platform for MultiFamily and Campus Communities, has announced its 100,000th installation. The STRATIS Sphere platform is installed in more than 100,000 units, from luxury Class A facilities to dormitories to public housing, across 45 states. The STRATIS Sphere platform is the most widely installed Internet of Things platform in MultiFamily.

“This milestone is impacting for several reasons,” said Felicite Moorman, CEO and Co-Founder of STRATIS. “We have simultaneously created and cornered the market, creating the standard by which access, energy, and automation platforms are judged. This is no longer theory or even pilot; this is over 100,000 units up and running on STRATIS.”

The MultiFamily market has changed. Residents expect smart technology as an amenity in their homes.

“Nearly 5 million more families occupy multifamily than single family homes in the U.S.,” Moorman said. “By successfully adding and supporting 100,000 of these units on our system in a year, we’ve shown that STRATIS can provide to MultiFamily the technology that’s been available in single family for a decade, with real return on investment for property owners and managers, our decision makers, as well as residents.

The STRATIS access management and control platform enables property managers and staff to quickly and easily provide new and replacement credentials, maintenance and vendor access, and full audits, without ever leaving the management office. The benefits include increased security and efficiency, and the cost-savings of eliminating rekeying and replacing traditional door locks.

In addition to access management and control, STRATIS provides advanced demand response capable energy management and control. Building owners and managers can begin with either access or energy, and expand their STRATIS Sphere platform to engage additional automation modules as fits their budget and objectives. STRATIS uses wireless, pre-commissioned, rapid install hardware that reduces the amount of time and expense of installation for either new construction or retrofit.

“Working with STRATIS is one of the easiest programs I've worked with when it comes to lock programs,” according to Kevin Billings, Leasing Consultant at 19Nineteen Clarendon. “The interface is super user friendly and if there are ever any issues, the techs on the support line are easy to get ahold of and walk you through any issues you may be having. It has saved us so much time when it comes to programming doors, since we no longer have to go to the actual unit anymore to program keys for residents.”

STRATIS also supports the newly released Schlage Control Bluetooth-enabled door locks, created specifically for the multi-housing industry and compatible with the STRATIS Smartphone App for Residents.
