Newark and Sherwood Council
The housing development in question – Queen’s Court – had been experiencing issues with its existing intercom system. Tenants were finding it difficult to communicate with visitors, and property managers were struggling to track and manage the flow of visitors coming and going. Furthermore, the system was outdated, unreliable, and expensive to maintain – meaning that a more modern and efficient solution was required.
Intratone stepped in to provide a cloud-based intercom system that incorporated cutting-edge technology such as 4G and VoiP. The system was designed to be user-friendly and easily navigable – tenants could easily communicate with visitors via a video call, and property managers could remotely manage and monitor access to the building in real-time. Furthermore, because the system was cloud-based, it was far more cost-effective to maintain – reducing costs for the council and for tenants alike.
The results of Intratone’s work with Newark and Sherwood Council were impressive. Tenants reported a significant improvement in their ability to communicate with visitors, as well as increased security and peace of mind. Property managers also noticed a positive impact on their workload, as the system allowed them to easily manage access and keep track of visitors. Overall, the partnership between Intratone and the council resulted in a modern, efficient, and cost-effective intercom system that helped to improve the quality of life for residents and made the management of the development far easier and more secure.
