Simple to fit.

BenchMarker Cloud is a modern way to manage multiple facilities, anywhere.

It’s designed for owners and managers who look after multiple properties across different locations, all operating under one group or purpose.

Hotels, retail groups, retirement homes and hospitals, educational campuses, commercial portfolios or single large buildings with many offices where equipment types and ages differ, yet expectations for comfort, sustainability, and reliability are high.

BenchMarker Cloud provides managers with a secure, single view across all assets and all buildings, with access to controls and global scheduling — without the complexity or restrictions of local building management system infrastructure.

    Small, long-life wireless sensing and measuring devices, that also analyse locally, send live data to the cloud, directly from the equipment, giving you remote monitoring and automatic control. The devices work straight out of the box and install is fast and easy - no wiring, no Wi-Fi.

What Our Customers Say

  • "BenchMarker Cloud has, once again, saved my bacon! I wouldn't have known about the water leak without it - until we received a whopping water bill!"

    Brett Davies, Maintenance Supervisor at Earth Sciences NZ

  • "Looking after the air conditioners in multiple buildings around the country used to be a nightmare - now it's easy to manage - the servicing, the reconfiguration, and remote control. If someone complains about the temperature, whatever building they're in, I can change it immediately and ask 'How's that now?' while they're still on the phone!"

    Facilities Manager, International Real Estate Property Services company

  • "We saved ourselves over $100K annually in water rates when we installed a MeterReader on one of our food processing water lines. The return on investment could be measured in hours, not years!"

    Brendan Myers, Automation/Mechatronics Engineer, Sanitarium NZ

  • "Vention Lab is the one-stop monitoring shop we'd been looking for."
