本文討論了門禁系統(tǒng)在后經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退時(shí)代的未來發(fā)展趨勢(shì)。

　　在后經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退時(shí)期，其它安防產(chǎn)品市場(chǎng)發(fā)展減緩的同時(shí)，門禁控制市場(chǎng)已經(jīng)激發(fā)了新的趨勢(shì)。隨著亞洲對(duì)最新技術(shù)的持續(xù)需求，以及智能卡的采用在EMEA(中歐東歐地區(qū))的不斷增長，美洲已經(jīng)成為了SaaS和基于Web的門禁控制系統(tǒng)的先驅(qū)。根據(jù)來自IMS Research的最新統(tǒng)計(jì)，全球門禁控制市場(chǎng)預(yù)計(jì)到2010年超過180萬美元。

　　該報(bào)告的作者，市場(chǎng)分析家Blake Kozak評(píng)論說：“門禁控制的未來趨勢(shì)是集中在靈活性、可擴(kuò)充性和集成的思想。軟件及服務(wù)，基于Web的門禁控制和電子汽缸鎖一定會(huì)在從市場(chǎng)衰退中復(fù)蘇中走在前列?！?/P>

　　Kozak繼續(xù)指出，“整合是一個(gè)已經(jīng)拋出了數(shù)年的老話題。雖然整合邏輯和物理訪問控制已經(jīng)最終成為現(xiàn)實(shí)，尤其是在醫(yī)療部門保護(hù)病人的記錄方面，但真正在市場(chǎng)上獲得拉動(dòng)的趨勢(shì)是SaaS、基于web的系統(tǒng)和電子氣瓶，所有這些都是利用了IP基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施的能力”。

　　基于Web的門禁控制可以連接到互聯(lián)網(wǎng)以進(jìn)行遠(yuǎn)程配置，或者通過內(nèi)部網(wǎng)來進(jìn)行獨(dú)立訪問控制。為了使面向小型企業(yè)的門禁控制更佳簡(jiǎn)單更加實(shí)惠，市場(chǎng)上不斷看到SaaS和基于Web的門禁控制系統(tǒng)涌入。這兩種方法有著共同之處，它們都是可擴(kuò)展的，并且可以減少或消除與基于PC的系統(tǒng)相關(guān)的成本。但是，基于web的門禁控制系統(tǒng)要么使用基于PC的軟件，要么在SaaS平臺(tái)中使用嵌入式web服務(wù)器，一切都通過“云”來設(shè)置，升級(jí)和管理，并且升級(jí)是自動(dòng)的，無需用戶控制。

　　Kozak繼續(xù)指出：“基于Web的門禁控制系統(tǒng)將繼續(xù)獲得市場(chǎng)的認(rèn)可，特別是在美洲有著對(duì)’開箱即裝即用’型解決方案的偏好。隨著市場(chǎng)的復(fù)蘇，客戶的注意力轉(zhuǎn)向ROI(投資回報(bào)率)，在長時(shí)間內(nèi)，供應(yīng)商持續(xù)提供靈活的和適應(yīng)性強(qiáng)的解決方案看起來可以獲得主要的拉動(dòng)力?！?/P>

IMS Research Press Release - Access Control Emerges from Recession with New Outlook

　　The following release discusses the future trends for access control, post recession.

　　Austin, Texas (October 1st, 2010) –The post-recession access control market has inspired new trends, while others have slowed. As Asia continues its quest for the latest technology, and smart card adoption continues to grow in EMEA, the Americas has emerged as the forerunner for SaaS and web-based access control systems. According to the latest statistics from IMS Research, the global access control market is forecast to reach over $1.8 million in 2010.

　　Report author and market analyst Blake Kozak comments, “Future trends in access control are centered on the ideas of flexibility, scalability and integration. Software-as-a-Service, web based access control and electronic cylinder locks will certainly be at the forefront as the market emerges from the recession.”

　　Kozak continues, “Integration is an exhausted topic and one that has been thrown around for a number of years. While the idea of integrating logical and physical access control is finally a reality, most notably in the healthcare sector to protect patient records, the true trends gaining traction in the market are SaaS, web-based systems and electronic cylinders, all of which utilize the capability of an IP infrastructure”.

　　Web based access control can be connected to the Internet for remote configuration or through an intranet for standalone access control. In an attempt to make access control easier and more affordable for smaller businesses, the market continues to see an influx of SaaS and web-based access control systems. Both approaches share similarities in that they are both scalable and can reduce or eliminate costs associated with PC-based systems. However, web-based access control systems use either PC-based software or embedded web servers in panels while with SaaS, everything is configured, updated and managed via the “Cloud” and updates are automatic and not controlled by the user.

　　Kozak continues, “Web-based access control systems will continue to gain market acceptance, particularly in the Americas where there is a preference towards “out-of-the-box” type solutions. In the long-term vendors offering flexible and adaptable solutions are likely to gain major traction as the market recovers and customers turn their attention to ROI (return-on-investment).
