A Look Back at 2017

2017 was an amazing year for SnapAV, as I hope it was for many of you. I wanted to take a moment to thank each one of you for your business, reflect on the year we had together, and look forward to 2018 and beyond. Our customers are our lifeblood. You fuel our team. And you inspired us to do many great things in 2017. Here are a few highlights: 1. This was a banner year for OvrC. We stepped up our platform investments and significantly reduced the costs to our dealers. Most dealers (Silver Partner Rewards members and up) began getting lifetime OvrC Pro licenses for FREE in the spring of 2017. Plus, your feedback led to awesome new capabilities like OvrC Home Macros, Parental Controls, and other Device Management features. OvrC is now being used to help our dealers manage systems in over 150,000 homes! 2. We launched an all-new line of Autonomic products. It�s been just over a year since SnapAV acquired Autonomic. As 2017 concluded, we celebrated the launch of the all-new Autonomic eSeries product line, the most reliable and capable Autonomic products ever. This is just the beginning of new innovations from our Audio team.3. Big changes were made to the SunBriteTV lineup. You told us that selling outdoor TVs was challenging due to their prices, so we developed the Veranda model�affordable, professional and profitable. With Veranda, dealers installed more outdoor TVs than ever before in 2017. We also upgraded the SunBriteTV Signature line, adding 4K performance and built-in HDBaseT.4. Outdoor WAPs joined the Araknis family. We continued enhancing our networking stable, and are making big investments to round out this category in 2018, since it�s become so important for our dealers and our business.These milestones were all achieved while doubling our investment in SnapAV�s testing and validation teams. This continued commitment to quality shows up in every new product SnapAV launches. We are grateful you responded so favorably to these highlights. 2017 was another record year for SnapAV�with healthy growth in both revenues and profits. This success enabled us to bring a new investor in to our company, positioning us to make greater strides in the years ahead. What innovations will 2018 bring? Our audio, surveillance and networking lines will all see lots of new and exciting introductions. OvrC will expand its current capabilities. And we will be laser-focused on helping you optimize how you serve your customers and build your businesses. Future innovation is not limited to our products. Our website, our services, and our policies are incredibly important to you. Snap�s approach to these core functions has even changed the way that many others serve the industry. And we want to do more. In 2018, we will also launch new training initiatives to help you face growing technical complexities in the field. We will challenge ourselves to simplify both product installation and support services. And we hope to make it easier for you to efficiently run and grow your businesses. Sincerely,John HeymanP.S. I often ask dealers what they would do if they were CEO of SnapAV, and I can�t think of a better time to ask exactly that. So, please take a moment and tell me what you�d like to see.

Network Controls with Araknis Products

December 2017 OvrC Release – Network Controls with Araknis Products

With this OvrC release, you can give your clients the ability to manage Wi-Fi access of other users at their location, either manually or on a schedule, all from OvrC Home. You can also provide clients the ability to filter web content at a location, but this feature is in its final BETA phases.

OvrC Home: Wireless Access Management

The Feature

When you enable this feature, it gives your clients the ability to group any number of wireless clients into a “profile” and the ability to revoke/grant Wi-Fi access to those associated devices, either ad hoc or on a pre-determined schedule from OvrC Home. This gives clients much more control over how Internet is being used at their location.

Residential Use Case – Managing Children’s Internet Access

In the residential scenario, the perfect use case for this is giving parents more control over their children’s access to the Internet. As an example, your client can revoke Wi-Fi access to his kids’ tablet after 9pm to ensure he’s going to bed.

How It Works

Since OvrC is natively integrated to Araknis access points, we leverage an embedded feature of the access points called Mac Filtering. When you “pause” Internet for a device, OvrC modifies the mac filtering table for the associated access points at the location.

Requirements & Limitations

As we use the native technologies built into the Araknis access points, this feature requires the use of Araknis access points using the latest firmware at the location. This is backwards compatible to any model of Araknis access points. This also means that wired and cellular connections cannot be controlled at this time.

Deploy this Feature Remotely

Great news! Since we support this feature on all generations of the Araknis access points, you can set this up and deploy it for existing and new clients from OvrC, all without having to roll a truck. If they already are using OvrC Home, just have them log out and back in to see the latest features that you enabled. To learn more about how to set this up, watch the step-by-step video below.

Provide Clients a Gift for the Holidays & Let Them Know You Care!

With holidays coming up, this would be a great service that you could send them as a thank you for being a loyal customer and continue to add value as their go-to technology professional.

Client Support & Communication

To make it even easier for you, we’ve built-in some self-help content in the app for clients to get a quick preview of what they could do with the new features.

We’ve also created a templated email with hi-res graphics that you can use in your communication to the client. You can find the email template here.

What’s the Catch? – Nada

There is no catch. This is a value-added feature we’ve added to our access points so that you may be able to deliver more value to your clients. No additional hardware or licensing required. Happy holidays!

OvrC Home: Content Filtering

This feature gives your clients that ability to filter out and block select URLs from being accessed at their location. They are able to select one of four levels that range from just blocking malicious URLs all the way up to very stringent filters.

This feature does require the use of Araknis routers as we are leveraging the native capabilities to make changes in the configurations. This feature is in its final stages of BETA, so we encourage you to test the feature and provide feedback at [email protected]. Thanks!
