The update of its access controls has meant to the company [Claro](https://www.claro.com.ar/personas) significant savings of time and money, just informed the manufacturer of secure identity products, [HID](https://www.hidglobal.com/es). The implementation of the HID Mobile Access system was carried out at the company's facilities in Argentina, a country where the telecommunications giant has thousands of employees. Until now, Claro invested large amounts of resources in the maintenance of stock destined to the production of new credentials, in addition to the replacement of these in case of loss or breakage.

These devices support a wide range of credentialing technologies, giving the system flexibility. Finally, thanks to the HID Origo platform, Claro administrators can now create, manage, issue and revoke credentials very quickly and through the cloud.
