HYBRID ENTRY

The smartest communities don’t choose between QR and video. They use both.

Hybrid entry deploys QR speed where volume demands it and video verification where trust requires it — on one platform, with one dashboard, and one resident app that handles everything.

WHY HYBRID

Every entry point in your building has a different job. Your access system should know that.

The main lobby is where unknown visitors arrive. It needs visual verification — a resident who sees a face before opening a door. That’s video intercom.

The resident parking gate handles 200 entries every morning. It needs speed — a credential that works in under 10 seconds without stopping. That’s QR access.

The service entrance handles contractors and couriers on scheduled windows. It needs time-bound codes that expire automatically. That’s also QR.

A single-technology system forces every entry point into the same workflow — regardless of whether that workflow fits. A hybrid system gives each entry point exactly what it needs. One platform runs all of it.

THE HYBRID MODEL

Right technology. Right entry point. Every time.

LOBBY · VISITOR ENTRANCE Video intercom

Visitor presses call. Resident sees their face. Resident decides. Gate opens.

Trust where trust is required.
RESIDENT · PARKING GATES QR entry

Resident scans in under 10 seconds. No call. No wait. No friction.

Speed where speed is required.
SERVICE · DELIVERY ENTRANCES Time-bound QR

Contractor enters during scheduled window. Courier delivers with a one-time code. Pass expires the moment the window closes.

Control where control is required.
ONE SYSTEM

One credential. Every entry point. One dashboard.

01

One app. Every access method.

Residents manage video intercom calls, QR credentials, guest passes, and amenity access from the same Vivo app. No switching between platforms. No separate systems to learn.

02

Entry point determines the workflow

Vivo detects which type of entry is occurring — video call, QR scan, or timed code — and routes it correctly. The resident’s experience adapts to the entry point automatically.

03

Every event logged uniformly

Whether entry is via video verification or QR scan, every event is logged with identity, timestamp, method, and entry point — in the same unified audit trail.

04

One dashboard manages everything

Property managers see video intercom activity, QR entry logs, visitor passes, and contractor access — all in one place. No switching between systems. No reconciling separate logs.

FEATURES

Everything a hybrid system delivers that a single-technology system never can.

01

Video intercom at primary entries

Full HD video call from lobby panel to resident smartphone. Sub-second connection via WebRTC. Remote gate release from anywhere.

02

QR entry at high-volume gates

Residents and pre-registered visitors scan in under 10 seconds. Encrypted, device-bound, automatically logged.

03

Time-bound contractor codes

Service providers receive QR codes valid only during their scheduled window. Automatically blocked outside that window. Every entry logged with identity.

04

Unified resident app

One app handles video calls, QR credentials, guest pass issuance, amenity bookings, and community communications. No switching. No confusion.

05

Single audit trail

Every entry event — regardless of method — logged uniformly. One exportable record covering your entire property.

06

Modular deployment

Start with QR at the main gate. Add video intercom at the lobby six months later. Expand to elevator control when the building grows. Same platform. No rearchitecting.

DEPLOYMENT

Hybrid starts wherever you are. Grows as your building needs it.

PATH 01

Start with QR

Deploy QR entry across all gates and access points. Video intercom added at the lobby when the budget or timeline allows. No rearchitecting required — it’s already on the same platform.

PATH 02

Start with video

Deploy video intercom at primary visitor entries. Add QR at resident gates to reduce lobby queue times. Both run on the same dashboard from day one.

PATH 03

Start with both

Full hybrid deployment across all entry points simultaneously. Recommended for new construction and larger properties where both workflows are needed from move-in day.

TRUSTED

Properties that run hybrid — and why they wouldn’t go back.
