Brivo is the original cloud-native access control company, founded in 1999. On December 29, 2025, Brivo merged with Eagle Eye Networks to form the Brivo Security Suite — access control, cloud video, visitor management, and intrusion on one dashboard. HTS deploys and manages the full suite under one managed-services agreement.
This page is for the combined entity. The Eagle Eye Cloud VMS sub-product has its own page, but the company behind it is the same.
The Suite launched March 12, 2025. The December 2025 merger with Eagle Eye Networks added native cloud video. The result: a single dashboard for access, video, visitor, and intrusion.
Cloud-native access control. Standard, Professional, Enterprise, and Multifamily editions. The category-defining platform for multi-tenant commercial real estate, multifamily residential, healthcare, and education.
Cloud-native video surveillance, now native to Brivo following the December 2025 merger. True cloud VMS with on-premises Bridge appliance. Camera-agnostic across thousands of models and hundreds of manufacturers.
The rest of the Suite. Visitor Management is powered by Envoy (since August 2025). Intrusion detection is the newest add. Identity Connector bridges Brivo to Entra ID, Okta, and Google Workspace for HRIS-driven user lifecycle.
