Paying attention to your surroundings is beneficial whether you’re at home or at work. An option for monitoring the exterior of your property and the interior of your company if you are a business owner is to install a video system. A video camera security company like Sonitrol, can examine your property to determine the best area for placement so that all areas are covered.
Remote monitoring is a common option for most systems. This allows you to view the camera from your mobile device or computer. If you notice anything out of the ordinary, you can alert the proper authorities, because it’s better to be safe when it comes to your business even if the incident turns out to be a false alarm in the end.
After installing your system, turn your settings on so that you can receive alerts on your mobile device. There are camera systems that have the capabilities to transfer footage to cloud storage so that you can view it at a later time. This is beneficial if there is any kind of suspicious activity so that you can give the footage to a local police department.
Most cameras offer zoom options as well as options that allow you to remotely pan the camera around to see other areas that are covered. Some camera systems even have speakesr that allow you to listen to words or sounds that are occurring and also allows you to vocally interact with the people who are in view of the camera. Sonitrol has cameras that alert them when they are down. This is called “health monitoring” and it allow Sonitrol to keep your camera system working properly at all times.
