(See how AC Security Solution helped Infinite EPC Sdn Bhd transition to Cloud Access Control. Reduce IT costs, save office space, and streamline HR management.)
Transforming Traditional Access Control into a Cloud‑Based Solution
AC Security Solution recently completed a cloud access control system upgrade in Malaysia for our valued client, Infinite EPC Sdn Bhd (https://www.infinitemne.com), helping them transition from a mixed traditional setup to a modern, cloud-based access control solution. The upgrade significantly improved operational efficiency, reduced IT maintenance costs, and freed up valuable office space.
As more Malaysian companies move toward smart office security and digital workplace management, cloud access control is becoming the preferred solution for businesses looking to modernize their security systems while simplifying HR operations.
Client Background
Infinite EPC Sdn Bhd is an established engineering company that previously operated a combination of centralized and standalone access control systems. While functional in the past, the system gradually became inefficient as the company grew.
Challenges Faced by the Client
During our consultation with the client’s HR team, several key challenges were identified:
- HR personnel had to physically visit individual door readers to register, update, or remove users
- The existing centralized access control server/PC was slow and approaching end‑of‑life
- The server occupied a workstation space, reducing seating capacity for staff
- System maintenance required IT expertise, making daily management inconvenient
- Ongoing hardware and maintenance costs continued to increase
These issues resulted in lost productivity, inefficient HR processes, and unnecessary operational expenses.
AC Security Solution’s Recommendation: Cloud Access Control
After evaluating the client’s needs, AC Security Solution recommended upgrading to a cloud‑based access control system.
Unlike traditional server‑based systems, cloud access control eliminates the need for on‑site servers and dedicated PCs, allowing access management to be handled securely via the internet.
Cloud vs Traditional Access Control: What’s the Difference?
Traditional access control systems typically rely on:
- On-site servers or dedicated PCs
- Manual software updates and maintenance
- Physical presence to register or remove users at access readers
In contrast, cloud access control systems provide:
- Secure remote management from any location
- Automatic system updates without IT intervention
- Centralized control over all doors and users via a web platform
This shift from hardware-dependent systems to cloud platforms is a key trend in modern workplace security and commercial security solutions.
Why Cloud Access Control Was the Right Choice for a Growing Malaysian Business
The proposed cloud solution addressed all of the client’s concerns:
- ✅ No physical server or PC required
- ✅ No IT personnel needed for system maintenance
- ✅ User access can be managed anytime, anywhere via a secure cloud platform
- ✅ Faster user registration and access changes
- ✅ Reduced long‑term costs with no server replacement or upkeep
- ✅ Office space saved, allowing better staff seating arrangements
After understanding the operational and cost benefits, the client agreed to proceed with the cloud access control upgrade.
Results & Benefits Achieved
Following the implementation, Infinite EPC Sdn Bhd experienced immediate improvements:
- ⏱ Significant time savings for HR in managing employee access
- 💻 Elimination of slow and outdated access control servers
- 💰 Lower maintenance and IT support costs
- 🪑 Optimized office space with no server occupying a workstation
- 🔐 A more reliable, scalable, and future‑ready access control system
The cloud solution provided a cleaner, simpler, and more efficient way to manage access control across the organization.
This project demonstrates how cloud technology is transforming traditional access control systems into scalable, cost-effective, and HR-friendly security solutions. For growing companies, removing the dependency on on-site servers not only improves system performance but also supports more flexible and efficient workplace operations.
Cloud access control is now a core component of smart office security and a strategic upgrade for organizations aiming to future-proof their commercial security infrastructure.
