Turn a working phone buzzer into access you can manage around your day. Protobuzz Community includes a free number, passcodes, timers and access-count rules, giving you more control over who gets in and under which conditions.
Keep your current panel and build your rules from iPhone or Android. Standard adds recurring schedules and automatic entry; Premium adds Google Calendar sync. Start free, then add automation as your needs grow.
Keep your current setup if answering each call already meets your needs. An internal handset or faulty entrance may need a hardware assessment first. If your panel can call a phone number and you want custom guest rules, choose Protobuzz.
