“The cameras feel solid, the documentation is clear, and the whole system is intuitive. Our installer had never used Verkada before, and he told us, ‘This is fantastic — just leave it with us. They have now signed on to be a Verkada installer/partner.’”
“The ability to visually monitor everything that happens in a restaurant is critical. With Verkada, we’re able to effectively manage every part of our business in a really simple way. This solution was a no brainer for us, and the impact it made on our day-to-day operations was immediate. We saw the value of the solution almost immediately.”
“Our biggest problem was that our video surveillance and access control systems were dissociated from each other. Due to that, we had a hard time verifying people who came onsite and badged into our secured lab areas.”
“What I learned about it was what it wasn’t doing for us. We needed more information, and more reliable information.”
“I had a small IT department that managed the whole city, each building with its own surveillance system. We were getting a lot of retrieval requests and it got too time-consuming to maintain, retrieve, and archive the video.”
“Not only were the old CCTV systems hard to use, but the maintenance was also incredibly expensive. I had six DVRs that needed to be replaced and each ranged from 6-8K. It was a massive payout for that hardware.”
“The other security solutions were just a newer version of the archaic system we already had in place. We knew in a few years’ time they were going to be causing problems for us.”
“Our behavior analysts review footage with clients and staff for coaching purposes, but our old system had poor video quality and no audio support. Plus, it was nearly impossible to find videos when we needed them.”
“Our previous solution had limited storage space, it was a chore to constantly delete footage in order to meet GDPR requirements. The software interface was horrible, and not at all intuitive. Scaling our coverage with the DVR system would’ve been impossible.”
“Our legacy system software was dated and ran slowly, just logging in would take 20 minutes before we could actually get to a visual. I’d sit through hours of footage, then have to whittle it down to two minutes, or else the thumb drive couldn’t be opened. It was a huge drain on time.”
“In the UK—pre-COVID—there were 50,000 empty shops. We think that number will be over 150,000 when this pandemic is over. Our goal is to build the world’s most adaptive retail space, so anyone can have a place to do their thing whenever they want.”
“Pushing everything to the cloud allowed us to shut down all the legacy servers in our facilities. The last items on the list were DVRs and security cameras.”
“In November of 2018, we had a lockdown occur on campus. It was clear to us that more had to be done to beef up our emergency notification system., There had to be an easier way to put the school under lockdown without requiring police to go around campus and physically secure buildings.”
“We’re expanding to new facilities, which posed the question ‘what do we want to do holistically from a security standpoint?’ We had the choice to keep adding disparate systems to each site, or have a single solution to unify security across all our locations.”
“I requested a trial and in a matter of days, was reviewing footage that recorded new insights of activity happening across the floor. It was immediately clear that (Verkada) is so much more than a security tool.”
