Data protection first: VC-Cloud solution.
Reliability, security and DSGVO compliance are the be-all and end-all of modern software solutions. Because no company or private individual wants to deal with failures and security gaps. That's why we rely on a modern cloud service for our VC-Core software.
Data security and the up-to-dateness of the software are guaranteed by professional support from the ISO 27001 certified data centre. The connection between the facility and the cloud is direct and encrypted via the integrated LTE router. This makes it impossible for third parties to intercept data.
Cloud solutions are significantly less susceptible to disruptions. If the worst comes to the worst, they are quickly remedied. You get a secure, AES256 encrypted, reliable and cost-effective solution.
Interfaces to your systems.
Our open interfaces (API) allow the smart lockers to be connected to existing software solutions, e.g. sharing economy platforms, purchase management systems and property management apps.
Combine Variocube applications on one system.
Several Variocube software applications can be easily combined on one system. This way you get a multifunctional, smart locker system with which you can e.g. hand over keys of car sharing vehicles, offer services of dry cleaners and much more.
