Making the switch to a digital security surveillance system can be a difficult choice with many factors to consider. Guardvision provides security surveillance systems to the Houston area and today we want to discuss why making the switch is the safer choice for your company.
Easy To Use
As technology becomes more and more accessible, so does our access to putting it to good use. With modern security tech, your security system can be updated in seconds, giving it upgraded software to help protect your business without complicating your ability to interface with the system. With wifi access, you can view your business remotely, giving you more confidence to leave your business during trips or sick days.
Security guards need training and time to recognize new employees while computers can do that in an instant. If a new face recognition update is released, your security system will be able to update in seconds, which can save you the hassle of identifying a problem should it arise.
The cameras in our security surveillance systems record in HD, making it easier to identify if items were taken and who did it. As these computers continue to get updates to read pictures for faces or dangerous objects, their margin for error will continue to decrease.
Reduce Security Costs
While security guards are a welcome sight, they’re also a big cost to your business. Without a surveillance system, you have to rely on a large team of guards, which will drastically increase your monthly expenses. With a surveillance system, you can reduce the amount of labor you need and increase the effectiveness of the security personnel, if any, that remain at your business.
With a security surveillance system, there are only two costs you’ll have to consider after installation: wifi and electricity. Even with the extra energy and bandwidth consumption, you will notice a negligible increase compared to a security guard’s salary. All updates and “training” for your security system are included in the software itself, saving you money within the first weeks of installation.
Save Time
With instant communication between all of your cameras, you’ll be able to take and send pictures to the police that shows any theft or damage done on your property much quicker than a security guard can. For staff you have on hand, this could help them either catch would-be thieves, or prevent further losses by closing down the store or getting people out faster in the case of an emergency.
In the event of an active incident, cameras communicating between each other can help organize your team to either move out of the way of a dangerous individual, assist the police or a security team in tracking the problem, or figure out if exits have been blocked off due to an emergency like a fire. This instant communication can save lives and merchandise as it decreases the amount of time before first responders arrive at the scene.
