Proptech, or property technology, is revolutionizing the commercial building and real estate sector. In recent years it has significantly improved operational efficiency, tenant experience and energy management across multifamily housing, commercial real estate and hospitality industries. However, several challenges hinder the adoption of proptech, including regulatory hurdles, cost concerns and a general reluctance to embrace new technologies. In a recent article by SDM Magazine, industry leaders discuss the need for security integrators to adopt a strategic approach that aligns technology with specific client goals and context-specific requirements—moving away from traditional systems to more standardized solutions that enhance both operational efficiencies and resident experiences.
The future of proptech heralds transformation for the security industry, particularly as integrated and data-driven systems become more standard. Market forecasts predict significant growth in the proptech sector, with advancements in AI, IoT and cloud-based solutions. To capitalize on these developments, security integrators must rethink their traditional roles by enhancing building automation, improving customer experience, and integrating physical and cybersecurity measures. Alert Enterprise’s solutions help integrators lead the charge with robust, scalable security systems that not only protect assets but also seamlessly integrate with proptech innovations to drive efficiency and enhance user experiences.
