QUEXT IOT COLLABORATES WITH LAMARCO SYSTEMS TO EXPAND SMART APARTMENT SOLUTIONS IN THE MIDWESTERN US

Lubbock, TX – June 24, 2024 – Quext is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Chicago-based LaMarco Systems, an integrated solutions provider. This collaboration designates Quext IoT as a preferred provider of smart apartment access control, connected community technology, and managed WiFi solutions for LaMarco Systems' new and existing multifamily clientele. This partnership aligns both organizations to deliver a superior suite of services to their respective customer bases.

By utilizing Quext IoT as a preferred smart apartment solution, LaMarco Systems will enhance its service portfolio for multifamily properties, representing Quext IoT’s advanced smart apartment technology and its managed WiFi solution. This integration will enable residents and property staff to remotely manage smart-home devices such as door locks, thermostats, light switches, and water sensors. A key differentiator of Quext IoT is its utilization of an LPWAN network, providing community-wide connectivity into a unique thermostat hub, thus eliminating the need for WiFi. Marat Sedenkov, Founder and CEO of LaMarco Systems, anticipates substantial benefits for owners and operators of existing multifamily properties, who can now implement a top-tier smart community solution without the dependency on WiFi.


"Our partnership with Quext allows us to design, sell, install, and service cutting-edge IoT solutions for our multifamily clients across Chicagoland," said Sedenkov. "Leveraging Quext’s innovative IoT networking solutions enables us to offer cost-effective and streamlined installations, even for existing properties of varied construction types and ages."
