High-Availability Server Locations for Maximum Reliability

INAX AG places great importance on the availability of its services and the security of its facilities for all ixArma alarm servers offered in Switzerland and the EU. Customers can trust that we guarantee the security and reliability they need and expect. That is why we have a robust infrastructure with multiple data centers (DCs) with TIER 3/4 classification.

Our Data Center Locations

To enable comprehensive geo-redundancy and failover protection, multiple data centers and virtualizations (clusters) are required. We currently use three interconnected data centers in Switzerland for operating our ixArma software in the cloud:

  • 8152 Opfikon-Glattbrugg (Zurich) ZUR2 Interxion
  • 8102 Oberengstringen (Zurich) Equinix
  • 1219 Vernier (Geneva) Equinix
  • 4142 Münchenstein (Basel)

In addition, we offer our Swiss customers the option of integrating foreign branches in the familiar way, and provide the cloud infrastructure not only in Switzerland but also in the EU:

  • 2031 BE Haarlem (Amsterdam) (AMS01)
  • 1119 NR Schiphol-Rijk (Amsterdam) (AMS02)
  • 60437 Frankfurt (FRA01)
  • 90431 Nuremberg (NBG01)

The connection between our data centers uses Data Center Interconnection (DCI) to establish fast and reliable communication between locations without going via the internet. This ensures uninterrupted communication between sites and guarantees a smooth failover in emergencies.

Our geo-redundant server locations guarantee maximum availability, ensuring that your alarm solutions always function reliably — regardless of local outages or disruptions. With our three data centers (TIER 4/3) in Switzerland, we have the infrastructure in place to respond to all eventualities. Additionally, our further data centers in the EU allow both Swiss customers' foreign branches and EU customers to be connected with the same trusted reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How can I try and obtain ixArmaGO?

Our ixArmaGo solutions are available directly through our websites or at no extra cost through specialized system integrators. ixArmaGo Cloud is a product designed for the cloud, available exclusively in our Tier 3/4 data centers in Switzerland and the EU. Please refer to our list of data centers.

This means you can get started with purely manual alarms and technical alarms using our REST API and XML connectivity without any upfront investment costs. For additional technical alarm inputs (fire alarm systems, intrusion detection, access control, etc.) you will need dedicated hardware (ixArmaBox or ixArmaBox+), which is available for purchase even on a small budget. We deliver the ixArmaBox pre-configured for your network with plug-and-play setup – you simply fill in the missing details. Our support team is happy to assist with setup and commissioning upon request.

This is possible both as a portal installation or on a dedicated virtual server (VPS). The advantage here is that all server resources are exclusively available to you. You have access and control at any time via a console and also through our app.

For large customers and customers with corresponding legal requirements, the software can also be installed on-site as an On-Premise solution and integrated into existing systems. It is precisely through system integration – even in complex cases – that we distinguish ourselves from the majority of our competitors. We don't just offer off-the-shelf products, but purpose-built and solution-oriented installations. ixArma offers the right solution for every purpose and every budget.

You don't want to buy licenses and spend large amounts regularly on security? Then our cloud and portal applications are exactly the right entry point for you. Contact us for a product presentation. Or try a cloud application including the app (without connected hardware and without usage costs for pager messages and SMS). We at ixArma would love to hear from you.

You can try ixArma free for 30 days. Please enquire here.

Why use ixArmaGo as a reliable solution for your alarm server management?

For larger SMEs and corporations, it is mandatory to have emergency and crisis plans in place for real incidents. Since emergencies can include all conceivable incidents such as fire, active shooter situations, threats to employees, storm warnings, or cyberattacks, our solutions are also suitable for smaller SMEs.

Emergency scenario or incident – ixArma offers scalable solutions across all industries and all budgets. Our software is proven, has been continuously developed, and has been available for more than 25 years.

Whether you need to automatically alert or notify an unlimited number of people in an event, emergency, or crisis – our ixArma product range offers perfect solutions for all business requirements, for SMEs of every size. Manage teams and participants, assign who is responsible for what, and reliably alert groups or individual participants via app or (mass) SMS. Our SMS blaster allows sending several thousand bulk SMS per minute and is therefore suitable even for larger-scale alerting operations.

Take a look at what we have to offer. Simply contact us for a webinar or a free initial consultation.

What advantages does the ixArma cloud solution offer compared to on-premise installation?

The ixArmaGo cloud and portal solutions offer several advantages over the ixArma on-premise installation:

  1. No upfront investment costs: The cloud and portal variants require no capital expenditure for servers or other hardware.
  2. Easy scalability: The cloud and portal variants are easily scalable, allowing you to adjust resources as needed at any time.
  3. Automatic updates: The cloud and portal variants are updated automatically, so you always receive the latest features and security updates.
  4. Access from anywhere: With the cloud and portal variants, you can access your data and applications from anywhere, as long as you have an internet connection.
  5. Low maintenance effort: The maintenance and upkeep of ixArmaGo in the cloud and portal are handled by us, so you can focus on your business.
  6. High availability: The ixArmaGo cloud solution is hosted in Tier 3/4 data centers in Zurich, ensuring high availability and reliability.
  7. Data security: The data in the cloud solution is stored in Tier 3/4 data centers in Zurich and protected by state-of-the-art security measures.
  8. User support: Book user support as needed and pay only for the actual effort involved.

Overall, both the cloud and portal variants of ixArmaGo offer a cost-effective and flexible solution for alarm server management compared to the ixArma on-premise installation.

Why you should choose ixArma Go as a reliable solution for your alarm server management

Our ixArma solutions are available directly through our websites or at no extra cost through specialized system integrators. ixArmaGo Cloud is a product designed for the cloud, available exclusively in our Tier 3/4 data centers in Switzerland and the EU. Please refer to our list of data centers.

The cloud in Switzerland is operated and managed by a group company, ISANDO Technologies AG. In addition, we have OneICT (Nexus Group) available as an experienced partner for technical integrations (building management systems, fire alarm systems, smoke detection systems, etc.) in Switzerland and Liechtenstein.

In the EU, we have a long-standing partnership with Leaseweb, who manage and maintain our data centers in the Netherlands and Germany.

We therefore offer you a comprehensive, all-inclusive package for your alarm and crisis management.

You don't buy a pig in a poke – you can try ixArmaGo free for 30 days. Please enquire here.

Differences between ixArmaGO on a Cloud VPS and in the Portal

With ixArmaGo portal installations, up to 20 customers share a virtual private server (VPS). The VPS are configured to provide sufficient performance resources. This also applies to the required ISANDO PBX, which is equipped with 100 call channels and thus has sufficient resources for voice alerting. The same applies to the SMS module and other software modules.

Of course, each customer receives their own installation, separate from other customers – meaning each customer's data is strictly segregated.

ixArmaGo on Cloud VPS: Customers who opt for their own VPS receive a dedicated virtual server for the ixArmaGo installation. This means all resources of that VPS are exclusively available to you, with your own PBX and your own SMS module, among other things. The additional cost of the VPS is always worthwhile if you want to customize your alarm server. Here too, we offer 2 free months when you pay annually in advance.

Please contact us with any questions – we are happy to advise you.

What plans and plan variants are available?

ixArmaGo is available in two plan variants. The ixArma Compact Plan is suitable if you want to include a fixed number of employees in the alerting process. Simply select a plan tier that corresponds to the number of employees to be alerted. Our system monitors the number of employees and automatically adjusts the plan if necessary. Customers can upgrade or downgrade at any time with 14 days' notice to the end of the month.

If you enjoy our product, we offer two free months as a discount with annual prepayment. You therefore pay the premium for only 10 months instead of 12.

Due to the flexible contract model, we exclusively offer payment by credit card or through the payment options of our payment provider Stripe, with immediate payment and immediate activation.

The ixArmaGo Person Plan is designed for short-term and time-limited use, e.g. for sports events and concerts. We have also used our system for large events, such as various trade fairs, countless concerts, and the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany, where the authorities used our system.

This plan is currently being revised and is therefore not available at this time.

What contract terms are available?

We do not want to tie customers down with long contract terms. If you like our solutions, stay with us. If you don't, feel free to look for another provider.

With our hop-on hop-off model, both our portal and VPS installations have only the restriction that we require a minimum term of 3 months for portal customers and 6 months for VPS customers, provided no setup and installation fee is paid. Naturally, we need to cover our installation costs.

Alternatively, you can agree on installation costs upfront – in which case you have monthly cancellation terms. We think that's fair.

Of course, you can also agree on longer terms after the trial period. We offer two months free with annual prepayment. This applies to both portal plans and VPS plans.

When do we need hardware or the ixArmaBox for connectivity?

You can use our alarm server without hardware if you only want to trigger manual alarms via our user interface or the alarm app. You can also connect anything that is connectable via XML integration or REST API. In most cases, this allows building management systems from well-known manufacturers to be integrated without any issues.


If you want to connect your fire alarm system (FAS), smoke detection system, or BACnet via PLC, you will generally need our ixArmaBox or ixArmaBox+. Please contact us in advance – we are happy to advise you and inform you about the various protocols we have integrated (e.g. ESPA, ESPA-X, Modbus, OPC UA, MQTT, etc.).

What does the ixArmaBox cost?

We offer our ixArmaBox with 8 GB RAM and 256 GB storage, pre-configured and ready for installation, currently at CHF 1,190.00 (€1,290.00) net plus shipping costs. If you need more performance due to higher connectivity requirements, the ixArmaBox+ with 16 GB RAM and 512 GB storage is available at CHF 1,490.00 (€1,590.00) net plus shipping costs.

Important: Despite a significant rise in the price of storage media (RAM and storage), we are currently not planning any price adjustments for devices we have in stock.

The pre-configuration of our devices includes not only the installation of our software, but also the storage of the customer's network details. This makes it possible to support customers during setup and integration with existing systems via paid remote support.
