Here are a few reasons why Omnicast Pro is the right video surveillance system for you.

Maximum Flexibility

Omnicast is an open-architecture video surveillance system. You can choose your preferred hardware or even re-use what you currently have. And, with Omnicast’s distributed architecture and archiving, you can configure your video surveillance system to adapt it to your current network environment.

Customizable

Omnicast Pro comes with the added option of a mature software development kit (SDK). This gives you the ability to customize your video surveillance system to your business processes. You can also use the SDK to fully integrate other key systems within your organization.

User-Friendly

Omnicast is part of Genetec’s unified security platform, the Security Center. For this reason, Omnicast Pro provides operators with a one-of-a-kind interface. Single-click widgets, intuitive tasks, and quick commands make it easy for operators to make fast and informed decisions. The user-friendliness of the video surveillance system also means lower training and operating costs. 

Future-Proof

When you choose an Omnicast Pro video surveillance system, it is a long-term decision. As the latest versions are released, you can easily upgrade to benefit from new features. And, if you outgrow your system or decide to expand to other facilities, getting the Omnicast Enterprise package is a seamless process.

Omnicast Pro video surveillance package offers you so many valuable features. Here are just a few that you must know about.

Multicasting: Allow many users in various locations to view a video feed simultaneously, without overcrowding the network, by using the bandwidth of each network segment only once.

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

Software Development Kit (SDK): Integrate building management systems, enterprise resource planning systems, intrusion detection systems or develop custom business applications with a mature software development kit.

Security Center Mobile: Connect back to your security platform over any IP wireless network and remotely monitor and control your systems with BlackBerry^®,Apple^® and Android compatible-devices.

Mapping: Get an interactive graphical representation of large areas under surveillance to easily pinpoint security cameras. Simply drag a camera from the digital map, and drop it into a window to view it in real time, or hover over the mapped camera to get a view of the live video.

Virtual Matrix: Convert your traditional CCTV matrix that switches hard wired video cables to Omnicast's Virtual Matrix that instead switches IP video streams. It offers an infinite number of inputs/outputs and can function with existing CCTV keyboards.

Edge-Based Video Analytics: Leverage video analytic capabilities offered by many IP video edge devices, by managing and viewing events and alerts within Omnicast.
