"Openpath is one of the few solutions that I've ever rolled out where people have actually told me how much they love it."

Designing access control to fit a trend-forward aesthetic

Design

At Leaf Group, they emphasize the visual aesthetic of things, so making sure their office is top-of-the-line design-wise is important to them. Openpath smart readers fit seamlessly into their modern Santa Monica office.

Cloud software

Because Leaf Group builds brands around technology, they need to use the best technology in their office to stay true to their message. Leaf Group clients know the company is dedicated to harnessing technology when they see Openpath’s innovative access control immediately upon their arrival to the Leaf Group office.

Compliance

We help the Leaf group be SOX (Sarbanes-Oxley) compliant with asset and data protection, change management, and audit and traceability support.

Challenge: Security without sacrificing convenience

Based in Santa Monica, California, Leaf Group has a young workforce of Millennials and Gen-X employees who work with clients to use technology to connect with their respective audiences. Sean Moriarty, CEO of Leaf Group, wants their office space to reflect their culture: the strategic intersection of technology and design. They also want a security system that allows employees to come and go when they please, as working hours for Leaf Group are 24/7.

Solution: Sleek, scalable access control

First and foremost, Openpath provided Leaf Group with a solution that fits their brand aesthetic. The Openpath solution marries art and design with technology in a way that Leaf Group strives to execute in their work for their clients. From a security standpoint, the Openpath cloud-based solution allows admins to configure access remotely so that anyone can have access to the office whenever they need it. With Openpath, employees at Leaf Group feel a positive difference in the way they interact with their office space. Scott Haynes, facilities director at Leaf Group, says that Openpath is “one of the few solutions that I’ve ever rolled out where people have actually told me how much they love it.” Lastly, Openpath technology helps Leaf Group meet the compliance standards they need to meet as a publicly-traded company.
