Core Principles Behind Commend Evergreen Technology
Unrivalled Backward Compatibility & Migration Capability
With our products, you can rely on unmatched backward compatibility. This means that legacy devices are compatible with the latest system generations. The Commend IP Converter allows even analogue devices from the 1980s to connect seamlessly to our cutting-edge VirtuoSIS server – and even take advantage of latest Commend cloud services.
Commend also offers you all the benefits of easy, step-by-step system upgrades at any time to suit your current needs. Thanks to a variety of connection technologies, existing Commend systems can be gradually upgraded to latest-generation IP-based products and even the existing wiring can be reused via Commend IP Bridge adapters. This avoids the enormous costs of upgrading to Ethernet wiring.
Commend’s backward compatibility and migration capability ensures sustainably low costs for hardware replacements and keeps your budget economically low throughout your system’s operating life.
Regular Software Updates
A Question of TrustCommend devices can take advantage of new features through software updates without the need to replace expensive hardware. Regular updates also ensure cyber-secure connections.
Cyber-security is an essential ingredient of Commend’s software development processes. It helps to protect your data and systems from malignant activity such as cyber-attacks, and from the resulting costs. Working in accordance with principle of “Privacy and Security by Design”, our R&D engineers follow security best practices such as encryption and secure programming to fortify our products against potential threats.
What’s more, regular security audits and external penetration tests (“pen tests”) help to identify vulnerabilities and enable timely code ‘hardening’. This means our products are built from the ground up with cyber-security inside instead of having it added on. You can rely on that!
Sustainable Product Design
Commend also places great emphasis on durability in product design. Our efforts to deliver on this ambition includes a careful selection of high-quality, robust components capable of withstanding extremely high and low temperatures as well as energy-efficient electronics. We also design our products for excellent repairability, and we use recyclable materials wherever possible to avoid electronic waste.
Talking about sustainability: Not only does it play an essential role in Commend’s products and solutions, but we are also ISO 14001 certified as a company. This international standard requires an Environmental Management System (EMS) according to strict criteria and supports us in the continuous improvement of our environmental performance.
This way, Evergreen Technology keeps adding value throughout a Commend product’s entire lifecycle.
That’s because communication without age restrictions will help you save costs without ever losing out on its benefits.
Trust in the evergreen of sustainable communication: solutions by Commend that are built to last – safe and secure – for many (product) generations to come!
