User Friendly Solutions
What differentiates Babbler from the rest is the way it operates in providing the solution and the approach it takes to help clients achieve their design vision. Firstly, the senior management team of the company meets its clients directly and understands their requirement in order to provide complete and customized solutions. After the requirement gathering phase, Babbler gets its team to work on not only providing utilitarian solutions but also solutions that are innovative and user friendly as well.
“We are design conscious, customer centric and build solutions for the future. This is made possible as we look into the details of the client’s requirements at every stage of the project’s lifecycle through our performance verification guide that has been developed over the years,” begins Sanjay Panjwani, Managing Director, Babbler Group. “We position ourselves as a knowledgeable integrator with global partnerships; our association with the best consultants combined with a decade of experience in this segment gives us an edge to create a home that has the latest technology at the constructed time. Technology that is able to teach itself can endlessly surprise us with its apparent creativity to understand us,” he adds.

Seamless Control
When it comes to multiple layers of home automation such as multi room music, lighting controls, curtain control, door communication, appliance and thermostat control, monitoring the air quality inside homes, sharing or playing your music and movies anywhere in your home, home automation solution providers have to carefully look into these requirements and decide on how to provide single solution that would help in controlling all these factors, which is unfortunately not an easy task. Taking these factors into considerations, Babbler Group has designed a simple and user-friendly GUI for iPad and mobile phone users that allow them to seamlessly control various devices that are integrated with the home automation systems. Moreover, through this user interface the client can check the surveillance cameras; receive notifications if there are any intrusions as well. This system is designed in such a way that it involves very little human interaction.
“We do not look at homes as brick and mortar rather we visualize them as luxury assistant that follows its owner,” begins Dinesh Kumar, Residential Head, Babbler Group. “In order to turn this into reality, our design team does a lot of detailing in creating a framework that lets multiple devices that are integrated in the system to communicate with each other,” he adds.
Babbler has put in a lot of effort to ensure that the client has complete access and control over the devices, integrated with the automation system from anywhere. Through the GUI that is built by the team, one can view all cameras, and also check if any devices or services are left on unnecessarily. And if there is an unfortunate intrusion, the home owner will immediately receive an alert on his phone.
Unique Energy and Shades Management
“We control HVAC through IP or backnet protocol as most of our customers require intelligent control - air conditioning can be integrated to be operated through the keypad, custom mobile Interface, voice commands or even gesture controls. Or they can relax as Babbler’s interface will remember their favourite settings, understand their comfort level and do the rest for them," says Dinesh..

through touch or voice commands.

“We are currently working on over 1 million sq. feet of collaborative workspaces across the country which includes audiovisual services, lighting management and IT services”
Augmenting workspace productivity through IT management solutions
The global market value of flexible workspaces is estimated at an approximate USD 26 billion, with an estimated 30000 flexible workspaces around the world today. These statistics and more like them prove that flexible workspace has become the workplace of choice. However, starting a shared workspace will require capital outlay at the beginning in some areas that cannot be skipped, but when it comes to workspace technology, it is a pillar that every business must make an investment in. Therefore, internet infrastructure is the most essential service that should be given great importance in any coworking space as the co-workers rely on the workspace technology to complete their tasks.
Therefore, before construction begins on the workspace, it is highly crucial to partner with a technology company that can advise on all the IT infrastructure needs. “Since mismanaged IT can be a major roadblock in the functioning of any organization. These issues can be handled easily by the Babbler team,” says their IT head Sudhir Shirsath. By outsourcing IT management to Babbler, organizations can focus their time and energy on their core products or services. The engineering team at Babbler is a diverse collection of engineers who have worked on multiple LAN/WAN, structured cabling and server room management solutions. They are capable of handling challenges ranging from cable management to managing rules for multi-layered firewall. Babbler has partnered with multiple OEMs for providing optimal solutions to its customers and most importantly, every solution provided by the company is unique and is tailored according to the requirements of its customers.

The company also provides lighting, access control, surveillance for any commercial facility. All services can be integrated to BMS as well.
