Smart Monkeys, Inc., a show control design and programming firm, and Control Concepts, Inc., the AV software development and API integration company, announced their strategic partnership to develop and support third-party product integration for the ISAAC by Smart Monkeys platform.
“Building upon past work to integrate ISAAC with Crestron and Q-SYS control platforms, Control Concepts has proven their proficiency with our platform and expertise in API integration through their successful solutions and support,” states Stephan Villet, CEO of Smart Monkeys, Inc. “We put our trust in Control Concepts, and they have come through repeatedly for us, our manufacturer partners, and our clients.”
“We are honored to be the preferred software developer partner that Smart Monkeys called upon to expand the power of ISAAC through API integration with third-party products,” adds Steve Greenblatt, Control Concepts’ president and founder. “The power of a flexible and scalable platform like ISAAC is truly realized by its ability to seamlessly integrate with third-party products by leveraging the power of its API.”
Benefits of Partnership
With the merger of AV and IT demonstrated by the prevalence of network-based products and systems, manufacturers and their clients continue to emphasize the need for a unified, comprehensive platform that satisfies all their management and monitoring needs, says Control Concepts. ISAAC by Smart Monkeys offers just that by providing users the ability to monitor, manage, schedule, log and receive alerts from their systems, products, endpoints, and network assets.
According to a statement, this strategic partnership provides manufacturers with a proven, trusted resource, endorsed by Smart Monkeys, who can ensure seamless product integration, maintenance, and ongoing support for ISAAC integration.
“As the demand for ISAAC continues to grow, so does the need to expand our integration partners and library of supported products,” adds Villet. “This relationship with Control Concepts allows us to continue to focus on building, advancing, and supporting ISAAC, knowing that third-party manufacturers seeking to integrate with ISAAC are in good hands with Control Concepts.”
According to Control Concepts, this announcement follows a prior collaboration between the two organizations as Smart Monkeys joined the Control Concepts Supported Product program, thus validating the long-standing relationship between the two companies.
