Here are some of the reasons why Genetec has the right security solution for you:

Catch Things before They Happen

Genetec’s unified security platform, the Security Center, provides a single interface to easily monitor all your systems, including LPR, video surveillance, access control and other third-party systems. The Security Center indexes and analyses security data from these multiple systems, and alerts you when something suspicious requires your attention. With consolidated security data, you make quicker, more informed decisions and can better prevent emergency situations.

Get Information to Authorities or First Responders Fast

In an emergency, law enforcement or first responders will be able to pull video feeds before arriving on the scene. This is all thanks to Genetec’s Federation feature. Share your security system with other independent organizations, or even across a school district. This helps authorities be better prepared to handle any situation.

Keep Your Costs Down by Re-using Some Existing Equipment

Genetec’s IP security solutions are all open architecture. This means you can re-use existing security cameras to reduce upgrade costs. You can also maximize your existing IT network. And if you buy newer IP equipment later on, you can easily install one camera or door at a time or in batches. It is all up to you.

Bring Operators Up to Speed in No Time

Genetec’s IP security systems are the most user-friendly on the market. The interface of the Security Center simplifies the navigation between features, helping you find what you need. And since the interface closely resembles that of an operating system, you will be more familiar using it. Operators with varying levels of computer skills can use Genetec solutions, and you reduce your training costs.

Opt for a Cost-Effective All-in-One Security Appliance

Genetec’s SV-PRO network security appliance comes pre-loaded with its unified security platform, Security Center, bringing video and access control within a single appliance. This means you get a simple, cost-effective solution that is easy to install, deploy and maintain. Video-only or access-control-only options are available as well. The SV-PRO is the perfect fit for schools with up to 100 cameras, or up to 256 readers, or in the case of a unified solution, up to 50 cameras and 128 readers.

Here are some IP security system features that make all the difference:

Alarm Management: Configure alarms based on a multitude of system events, determine and prioritize alarm recipients in advance, define procedures, and offer your operators various responses such as acknowledge, forward, or snooze alarms.

Area Interlock and Lockdown: Configure two or more doors within an area as an interlock, whereby only a single door can remain open at any point in time. Enable the Interlock feature for doors with or without readers and use other functions such as lockdown and override.

Web Client: Remotely and securely access live or archived video through Genetec’s Web applications without having to install any applications on your PC.

Federation: Unify multiple independent Security Center systems under a single virtual system for ease of global monitoring, alarm management, and reporting.

Correlated Information: Receive correlated real-time or archived information from the Security Center and other third-party systems such as building automation solutions and HVAC systems.

Multistreaming: Configure a camera’s multiple video streams for specific video usage, such as live viewing, remote live viewing, local recording, etc., for storage flexibility and bandwidth optimization.

Unified Security Interface: Genetec’s AutoVu license plate recognition, Omnicast video surveillance, and Synergis access control systems are unified within the Security Center. All systems can be managed seamlessly from one interface.
