CARLSBAD, CALIF., March 30, 2021 — Kicking off spring integration news in a big way, Nice North America today announced the release of an extensive assortment of new integration drivers for ELAN^® whole-house control solutions. The new drivers continue to expand Nice/ELAN system capabilities for dealers who are delivering premium-level home and business entertainment, security and control systems.

“We are excited to take this program to the next level in 2021 as we continue to work across product sectors, other manufacturers and developers to ensure ideal integration between Nice/ELAN products and other distinguished brands,” said Richard Pugnier, Vice President of Marketing at Nice North America. “This allows us to approve, track and share drivers that have been developed by our company as well as third-party companies and to further support our dealers in bringing compelling solutions to their customers.”

“This is an important, ever evolving program that responds to the needs of the market.” added Larry Cramp, Manager of the Nice North America Nice/ELAN Integration Program. “As such, Dealers and third-party vendors and developers will receive quarterly updates and will be able to soon access the wide variety of drivers directly through Nice/ELAN Management Cloud.”
