Surveillance cameras help monitor hallways and parking lots, intercom systems prevent visitors from entering a building without authorization, and access control systems manage and monitor the comings and goings of teachers and staff. However, recent events have shown that it’s not enough to just have a security system in place, the system must effectively handle a variety of potential threats.
When implementing or upgrading a video management system, security professionals are not looking at it as a short-term investment that will need to be replaced in a few years, but as a long-term solution. While it can be difficult to put a concrete number on how long a VMS system should last, security professionals still need to understand the average life expectancy and which factors can be used to determine when it is time to upgrade or replace a VMS system.
Security technology remains a critical tool in the loss prevention professional’s toolbox and now more than ever, it’s imperative to fully leverage a video management system to mitigate these pressures. But how?
Many companies struggle with the need to replace and start over as their surveillance and recording needs change. Manufacturers understand the struggle and are designing solutions that can ease you into the future with open platforms and enhanced service offerings.
