The Access Group
Discover how The Access Group uses Onics’ devices to create a high-quality and low-maintenance care solution that enables individuals to live safely and independently at home while giving peace of mind to their relatives or carers.
The need for reliable and long-lasting Zigbee sensors for behavioral monitoring
The Access Group is one of the largest UK-headquartered providers of business management software to small and mid-sized organizations in the UK, US, Ireland, and Asia Pacific. They are trusted by 100,000+ customers including the UK NHS to solve their biggest software challenges.
For their care solution, Access Assure, The Access Group was looking for reliable and high-quality Zigbee sensors to provide their customers with behavioral monitoring services. Based on this behavioral data, the Access Assure solution can recognize deviations from usual behavior that can indicate potential illnesses and emergencies and enable residents to live at home safely and independently.
The sensors needed to have a long battery lifetime and use standard batteries as frequent battery changes are very costly and require technicians to visit customers in person – resulting in high maintenance costs for their customers. The Access Group was further looking for a smart plug with energy-monitoring capabilities to track the usage of home appliances.

A perfect fit: mature plug-and-play Zigbee sensors

Onics provided The Access Group with high volumes of Motion Sensors, Entry Sensors, and Smart Plug Minis in Onics’ frient brand.
The products use AA and AAA batteries that provide a lifetime of +3 years for the Motion Sensor and +9 years for the Entry Sensor and are easy to replace if necessary.
With the Smart Plug Mini, The Access Group found a smart plug that can monitor the energy consumption of individual electrical appliances and thus determine the usage of various household appliances. For instance, they can tell whether a microwave is in use or if it is only the clock that is consuming power.
What the customer says:
“We wanted a Zigbee sensor partner which was trusted, high quality and just worked and that’s what we found using Onics’ devices.”

Person-centric and proactive care at home
With the devices from Onics, The Access Group can deliver a care solution that provides person-centered and proactive care and support for those living at home.
The solution is easy to set up and can quickly start recognizing activity patterns and deviations from those patterns so that preventative action can be taken, and earlier interventions can occur.
Easily integrated with 3rd party gateway
The devices were easily integrated with Access Assure using the technical manuals and documentation provided by Onics, making them work out of the box with the system.
High customer satisfaction & low maintenance costs

Together with Onics, The Access Group created a care solution that resulted in high customer satisfaction and low maintenance costs due to the long battery life of the devices.
Customers were also impressed with how easy it was to use the solution.
