International. HID announced that Gartner has named it a leader in its 2024 Magic Quadrant for the Indoor Location Services Industry.

It provides a graphical representation of the competitive position of four types of technology providers in sectors where growth is high and there is a clear differentiation between them: leaders, aspirants (also known as challengers), visionaries, and niche specialists.
The HID Location Services solution offers modular options that empower organizations' capabilities, ensuring the fastest time to results and unmatched flexibility. Key use cases for this technology include security and duress detection, asset tracking, infant safety in hospitals, workflow optimization, management of people at risk of disorientation, and guidance systems.
