What types of video surveillance systems does IP Systems provide?
IP Systems designs, integrates, and installs digital video surveillance systems tailored to each facility’s security needs. Solutions can support smaller retail applications, commercial properties, regulated environments, public-sector organizations, and large complex deployments. The company can also provide assessments, managed services, Network Operations Center monitoring, maintenance, and repair support around the installed surveillance infrastructure.
How does IP Systems design a surveillance system?
The process begins with understanding the facility’s risks, operational requirements, and current security capabilities. IP Systems uses that information to develop a customized design, select appropriate technologies, integrate the system with related security solutions, and coordinate professional installation. Assessments can also identify gaps, vulnerabilities, upgrade needs, and opportunities for a more scalable security approach.
Can IP Systems monitor video surveillance systems remotely?
Yes. IP Systems offers hosted and managed cloud security services and Network Operations Center monitoring. These services include continuous device-health monitoring, remote risk detection, predictive maintenance, smart dashboards, cybersecurity controls, secure data transmission, and notifications when issues are identified. Managed options can also include remote troubleshooting, software updates, and redundant storage for video, voice, and data.
Does IP Systems provide surveillance system repairs?
IP Systems provides service and repair support for malfunctioning security devices, including cameras with dropping feeds and displays experiencing image-quality problems. Technicians troubleshoot the reported issue and perform work according to the scope of services required. Standard service hours are Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., excluding company holidays; after-hours work may be available with additional charges.
What are the benefits of professional video surveillance installation?
Professional design and installation help align camera coverage and system functionality with a facility’s actual risks and operating requirements. Video surveillance can support theft deterrence, visual proof, risk management, reduced crime, incident documentation, and liability management. IP Systems also designs solutions that can be integrated with other security technologies and expanded as organizational needs change.
Does IP Systems offer ongoing maintenance after installation?
Yes. Support Programs, also called Managed Service Agreements, provide ongoing technical support and preventative maintenance after installation. Available components include preventative maintenance visits, database metrics compilation, performance analysis, priority response options, documented system history, and access to pre-recorded training and technical sessions. Program details depend on the selected agreement and system scope.
How much does a video surveillance system cost?
Pricing is customized according to the number of devices and the scope of services required. IP Systems provides quotes for video surveillance design, integration, and installation, while variable-scope work may be billed on a time-and-material basis at prevailing company rates. The final scope can be affected by the devices and services included in the project.
Can video surveillance integrate with other security systems?
Yes. IP Systems integrates digital video surveillance with broader physical-security technologies, including access control, fire systems, communication systems, and cloud-based monitoring solutions. Integration can help organizations manage security technology more cohesively. The company evaluates the facility’s needs and designs a solution appropriate for the project, whether it involves a new facility, an upgrade, or a comprehensive risk review.
