SmartThings Partners with Sapphire Connected Communities to Revolutionize Smart Apartment Living

SmartThings, Samsung’s global connected living platform, announces today a partnership with Sapphire Connected Communities, an enterprise software company which has built the first multifamily smart apartment solution on the SmartThings Pro B2B development platform. By leveraging the power of SmartThings Pro, Sapphire is able to offer apartment residents a familiar and feature-rich experience through the SmartThings app, while delivering an integrated management solution for property managers that improves operating efficiency across an entire portfolio of properties.

“Together, SmartThings and Sapphire will redefine the apartment living experience,” said Mark Benson, Head of SmartThings US. “We’re not just offering a product; we’re delivering a lifestyle upgrade that enhances convenience, efficiency, and peace of mind for both residents and property managers.”

With SmartThings Pro, SmartThings introduces a new platform for enterprises that builds on the strengths of the SmartThings ecosystem, offering new tools and capabilities for developing integrated, business-critical applications. The platform accelerates the development of applications in B2B sectors like multifamily housing, vacation rentals, hospitality, and healthcare, while also catering to consumer demand for a seamless, efficient, and scalable smart home experience.

Sapphire is the first Multifamily Residential solution to leverage this platform, enabling them to offer their multifamily customers a standards-based, integrated solution that leverages the reliability, security, and global brand power of Samsung, with the innovative new capabilities available with SmartThings Pro, like smart appliance diagnostics and asset management.

“Our partnership with SmartThings represents a significant milestone in delivering a cost-effective, reliable smart apartment solution,” said Eric DeJesus, Director of Operations at Sapphire. “By leveraging the power of SmartThings, we will provide a platform that not only enhances the resident experience but is more cost effective, providing users with a return on their investment in technology they will use daily. This partnership underscores our commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction.”
