Company Background
Parktron is a Taiwan based company and manufacturer providing automated parking product systems and solutions to help manage parking facilities easily and efficiently. Parktron works closely with local distributors in different countries and regions to serve its customers. Parktron is also experienced with parking projects that require integration with other systems including CCTV, DVR, LPRS or shopping discount, hotel management systems.
Challenges and Solution
In order to meet the demands of large scale public transportation projects that require modern ticketless parking systems, Parktron implements their intelligent license plate recognition system and eTag advanced intelligent parking management system. Older analog systems are digitized into systems that run over IP networks. For the main systems and databases for each server on the system, Parktron has chosen to use NAS as a backup solution in order to limit system reset time should the parking system malfunction.
Advantages of an ASUSTOR NAS Solution
“According to our project requirements, we borrowed products from three well-known SMB NAS companies for testing,” said Nick Lai, Assistant Manager at Parktron. “The products were tested with regards to ease of hard disk installation, ease of system installation and configuration, software interface, degree of detail in the information provided, after-sales service and price. A comparison chart was created for the two weeks of use and testing, with the results being assessed by the project manager and associated managers to determine the final decision. In the end, ASUSTOR’s AS5004T was selected for use as the backup solution for the project.”
