While many business owners believe that commercial video surveillance only deters theft and catches criminals after a crime occurs, today’s systems offer much more. 

Smart and collaborative, they are designed for the modern enterprise, scaling effortlessly and offering insights that advance your organization’s goals. The “cloud” has been a game-changer for firms looking for more than physical protection. And in this arena, the company with the leading market share in cloud video surveillance is Verkada. 

Worldwide, Verkada is ranked number one for video surveillance as a service (VSaaS) and cloud-native access control. As a unified cloud-based platform, it offers security cameras, sensors, and access control that all work from a single platform. 

Here, we’re exploring their personalized approach to video surveillance and the various ways organizations are utilizing it to create a better working environment. 

Most Houston businesses with multiple locations are familiar with the surveillance drill. Each property needs its own NVR or DVR. That means server closets, cooling systems, backup power, and someone to maintain it all. Add a third location, and you've tripled your infrastructure. Add ten, and you're managing ten separate systems with ten potential failure points. Commercial video surveillance doesn't have to work this way. Verkada cloud-based systems eliminate on-premise equipment, providing better access to footage and easier management across all locations you operate.
