The companies are using video management solutions to view live or recorded video from the cameras. 

FREMONT, CA : If the facilities are similar, security cameras can be installed both inside and outside. The companies can view live or recorded video from the cameras utilizing some interface. The small application is generally a simple graphical user interface (GUI) on a computer or an application on a mobile device. Larger systems may have feature-rich software in place, but it may not be fully utilized or customizable. Larger systems may have feature-rich software in place, but it may not be fully utilized or customizable.

Companies can consider a video management system (VMS) when they need a feature-rich, user-friendly video system that can simplify security operations and integrate with other systems. Here are some of the advantages of VMS:

Scalability

Cloud-based storage

Integration to other systems such as access control, fire alarm, intrusion detection, etc

Browser-based GUI

Alarm customization

Flexibility of operation

Server-based storage

Integration of multiple camera brands

Installed GUI application

Alarm customization

Multi-site monitoring

When companies consider all the advantages mentioned above, it's easy to see why deploying a full-featured VMS is a smart option. All the above benefits allow versatility of function, scalability, design, and operation simplicity.

The simplicity of functionality may be a driving source for security managers to implement a VMS. With staffing costs in mind, optimizing productivity during regular security operations is critical. Similarly, in the case of an emergency, the security operator must identify an alarm, evaluate the situation, and formulate an adequate response quickly. Integration of other devices such as access control, intrusion detection, and intercom will simplify the system. Multiple systems can be controlled from a single interface, making security management more manageable.

Features like infrastructure, resilience, redundancy, and mobility must be considered while designing a video surveillance system. Some applications may be better suited to a local server deployment, with storage and the VMS application located on-site. Other applications might be better suited to a cloud-based platform. When it is about multi-site applications, network connectivity should be a top priority. It is a common discussion that includes both the IT department and security.
