Kay Tilbury
In our previous blog, we highlighted how LapSafe® empowers IT Managers and MSPs to achieve secure, cost-effective, and scalable device management. Now, let’s take a closer look at the Diplomat Pro Smart Locker, a flagship solution that brings these claims to life.
Whether it’s improving operational efficiency, enhancing security, or supporting sustainability, the Diplomat™ Pro Smart Locker provides IT teams and MSPs with the tools they need to streamline device management and exceed their goals.
1. Enhanced Security and Accountability in Action
The Diplomat Pro Smart Locker is designed with security-first principles:
- Construction: Metal robust construction ensures devices remain secure, even in high-traffic environments.
- Advanced Access Control: With MIFARE®, Magnetic Stripe, PIN, RFID, or biometric access options, only authorised personnel can retrieve or store devices.
- Detailed Audit Trails: Every device interaction is recorded in real-time, offering a comprehensive log for compliance and accountability. IT teams can quickly track who accessed a device and when, minimising loss and ensuring swift recovery if issues arise.
By combining physical security with robust digital tracking, the Diplomat™ Pro reduces repair and replacement costs while enhancing accountability.
2. Optimising Device Uptime Through Automation
The Diplomat™ Pro maximises productivity with its automated charging and remote management features:
- Simultaneous Charging: Unlike round-robin systems, the Diplomat™ Pro’s smart charging technology ensures all devices charge simultaneously and safely, delivering full power in the fastest time possible.
- Integrated Power Management: Features like surge protection, soft-start charging, and automatic power cut-off prevent overcharging and extend device lifespans.
- Remote Monitoring: The locker’s intuitive dashboard provides real-time insights into device status, ensuring IT teams can monitor usage and proactively address issues, even from off-site locations.
With devices always charged and ready to use, the Diplomat™ Pro eliminates downtime and keeps operations running smoothly.
3. Achieving Cost Savings and Operational Efficiency
The Diplomat™ Pro helps IT teams and MSPs do more with less:
- Reduced Energy Consumption: Its eco-friendly charging technology optimises power use, lowering utility bills and supporting organisations’ carbon reduction targets.
- Automated Processes: Tasks like device check-ins, charging, and auditing are automated, saving IT teams valuable time and freeing them to focus on higher-priority tasks.
- Minimised Loss and Repair Costs: Secure storage and tracking deter theft and reduce damage, significantly cutting replacement and repair expenses.
These features translate into real, measurable savings for IT departments and MSPs alike.
4. Flexible and Scalable for Every Environment
The Diplomat™ Pro adapts to meet the diverse and evolving needs of organisations:
- Customisable Configurations: Whether it’s laptops, tablets, VR headsets, or other equipment, the Diplomat™ Pro can be tailored to suit your organisation’s specific devices.
- BYOD Compatibility: Perfect for workplaces and education settings with Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies, providing seamless storage and charging for personal and shared devices.
- Expandable Solutions: The modular design allows organisations to scale up as demands grow, future-proofing investments in IT infrastructure.
For MSPs managing multiple clients, the Diplomat™ Pro’s flexibility enables them to deliver tailored solutions that boost client satisfaction and retention. IT Managers can remotely manage multiple sites reducing travel and staff time.
