About this app

Avigilon Alta Open allows users to quickly and securely open a door connected to the Avigilon Alta Access Control system with their smartphone. The application works only with the Avigilon Alta Access Control system.
We leverage the following technology in your phone to ensure the best door opening experience possible: Bluetooth low energy, Wifi and LTE capabilities as well as location services, the microphone, phone routing, and the accelerometer. The app uses foreground services to enable background functionality: location allows you to use the "Wave to Unlock" feature to ensure secure, proximity-based entry, microphone access ensures you can have two-way audio conversations with visitors at intercom-equipped doors, and phone call integration ensures you reliably receive intercom rings directly to your device.
To ensure you are authorized as a user of your company's Avigilon Alta Access Control system, please contact your administrator, who will check to see that your email address has been added and will send you links to enable your application to be authorized and credentialed.

Ratings and reviews

Got a new phone. Tried to reactivate the app. Doesn't let me do it, but instead sends me around in circles to sign in over and over again with e-mail and password. This so ridiculous, .....and annoying because I cannot get into my office over the weekend. We are choking on our self-imposed security obsession with all this double and triple verification. By contrast, my on-line banking log-on has not changed for 20 years, and it's perfectly safe with a simple password.

The only thing this app is good at is keeping its users from gaining entry. It very rarely works and is wholly ineffective. Anyone thinking of using openpath should move right along. This app really does not work well, and sometimes, I find myself being stuck outside for several minutes because the app won't work. For something that is supposed to provide safety, it makes me feel less safe, as I am stuck outside for extended periods of time.

I and several others are seriously debating canceling our gym memberships almost entirely due to this app/system. I work out primarily during unstaffed hours, and I have been denied access 3 times at 2 different locations. Also, at least 3 times a night, I will watch someone else having the exact same issue at the door. Issue seems to be random, and It's not just on Android devices. As soon as I am able to get a key fob or I have canceled my membership, I will be uninstalling this app.
