Centrale D’Alarme De Bromont resellers provide security services including intrusion, fire, and gas alarms; video surveillance; intercoms; medical alert; and leak detection to thousands of homes across Quebec.
New and existing customers will have access to the OliverIQ’s SHaaS platform, integrating smart home devices and security solutions in a single app with 24/7 remote support and troubleshooting.
OliverIQ setup involves simple and swift detection and commissioning of smart devices in the home.
According to the company, the ShaaS platform supports controls from brands including Amazon, Google, Sonos, Roku, Leviton, Lutron, Fortune Brands, and many more.
Following initial setup, homeowners use the OliverIQ app to control and automate the smart devices in the home.
Based on the devices present, the app can suggest automations called Experiences, like Wake-up, Welcome Home, Good Night, and Away, that can be enabled with a few taps.
These macro scenes complement and enhance home security systems by simulating occupancy when users are away, managing access for trusted parties, improving energy efficiency, and more, according to the company.
