Napco MVP Access vs RemoteLock

Napco MVP Access is a cloud-hosted access control platform for dealers and integrators serving schools, businesses, campuses, and multi-site organizations. Administrators and security teams use a PC browser interface alongside Android and iOS apps. It supports unlimited users and management of ten to thousands of doors and gates, with credentials, access groups, layered permissions, and schedules spanning departments, buildings, and locations. Listed credential types include BLE, mobile, NFC, Prox, MIFARE, and biometrics; NFC mobile credentials can be used through Google or Apple Wallet. Video integrations include DW, Hanwha Wave, ExacqVision, and Milestone XProtect, while BadgeHub synchronizes cardholder information and supports credential printing. Microsoft Entra ID provides single sign-on and automated user provisioning, and Microsoft and Google Authenticator are supported for multi-factor authentication. Customers moving from MVP-EZ can retain their database and installed hardware. Dealers order through Napco ComNet after signup. The maker also offers training and describes technical support and self-help options.

RemoteLock is cloud-based access control software for remotely managing property access. Its unified dashboard shows device status, recent activity, user access, issues, and alerts. Administrators can create custom roles and groups for staff and vendors, while audit logs record actions and configuration changes. Automated workflows can respond to bookings, schedules, or events, and an open API supports custom workflows. Integrations include Airbnb, AppFolio, and hardware and software partners. The Resident App uses Bluetooth Low Energy credentials that RemoteLock says work offline. It supports Android, iOS, web, and API access, along with visitor management, access schedules, audit logs, and lock and gate support. Annual Premium plans start at $6 per month. Portfolios with 10 or more multifamily doors must contact the company for pricing. There is no free plan.
