Simac IDS was founded to automate operational processes in which people and customer experience are key. It all started as a separate business line "ID solutions" within Simac QuadCore in 2005. After years of continuous expansion and innovations within the Simac QuadCore organisation, it was necessary to give the "ID solutions"business line its own identity.
This resulted in the first fully IP-based card reader and the launch of Simac Presto, our first product suite. Presto is our attendance and engagement monitoring platform for the education sector. Why Presto? And what does it offer your institution? You will find the answers here.
Presto was created to assist staff to pro-actively support students and improve their experience and wellbeing during their time at school, college or university. We achieve this with our attendance and engagement solutions that provide accurate and real-time information for your support services.
