HID Global FARGO Connect

The HID FARGO Connect solution can be added to any OnGuard instance, whether on prem or cloud based. Operations staff can utilize either the OnGuard PC Client or Web Client to issue badges by opening a user’s record and simply modifying the record to send a HID FARGO Connect print request directly from OnGuard. The issuance user can make this request from any pc or browser to send badges to any printer in the HID FARGO Connect ecosystem. When the print process is complete, any smart card information on the card will be automatically read and updated in OnGuard for the associated user record. 

With HID FARGO Connect, you get:

• Connected Experience – Issue directly from OnGuard
• Issue from Anywhere – Send encrypted print jobs while in the card office or from your couch
• Secure Remote Issuance of Smart Cards – Enroll cards within seconds by reading contactless card data during the print process
• Real-Time Visibility of Entire Issuance System – View the entire issuance system from a single dashboard to increase overall uptime
