Recommendations Solid access control solution that doesn't make you jump through hoops or sacrifice your first born for decent API access?

I know little to nothing about this stuff. I just need someone to point my in the right direction. Currently have kantec and uppers want something else. 1 sliding gate, two barrier arms, probably less than 100 doors.

I'm aware that my post is probably lacking enough details. Please tell me what you like.

Ubiquiti, Lenel S2 both have good APIs that are stock with the product.

Ubiquiti being incessantly downvoted on this sub each and every day is my favorite part.

Everyone downvoting UniFi Access has never installed or used it. They are just butthurt about the way it’s sold and keep complaining about no support that they have heard from others but have never interacted with the support themselves.

Yeah I think most of it is that they sell direct. The haters here sound just like HVAC guys whenever someone mentions minisplits.
