9 Essential Tips for Choosing the Best Commercial Surveillance System


Ensuring the safety and security of assets, employees, and customers is paramount for commercial business owners. One effective way to achieve this is through the implementation of a robust Commercial Surveillance System. These systems not only protect assets and reduce theft but also contribute to maintaining employee safety and enhancing overall operational efficiency.


However, selecting the right Commercial Surveillance System amidst the plethora of options available can be daunting. To aid in this process, we've compiled nine essential tips to consider when choosing the best system for your business. These tips are tailored to help you make informed decisions, maximize your Return on Investment (ROI), and ensure the safety and security of your premises.


1. Cloud Video Surveillance: Implementing Cloud Video Surveillance allows for seamless management of your Surveillance System via the internet, offering easy access to security cameras from any location with an internet connection. With enhanced cybersecurity features, scalability, and simplified remote access, Cloud Surveillance Systems are ideal for businesses with multiple locations.


2. Camera Flexibility: Select security cameras that are adaptable to your business needs, including leveraging existing cameras where possible. Ensure they are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, and capable of withstanding various weather conditions. This flexibility ensures standardized security across all sites, optimizing surveillance effectiveness.


3. Ease of Use: Opt for a system with a user-friendly interface and straightforward configuration, installation, and operation. Features like multi-site viewing enhance efficiency, encouraging effective utilization by users.


4. Cybersecurity: Prioritize strong encryption and two-factor authentication to safeguard surveillance data against unauthorized access. Triple redundant storage ensures footage accessibility even during system failures, enhancing reliability and data security.


5. Total Cost of Ownership (TCO): Consider the full lifecycle costs of the Surveillance System, including initial purchase price, maintenance, updates, and infrastructure. Cloud-based systems often offer a lower TCO compared to traditional on-premise solutions, with flexibility in resource allocation and scalability.


6. Bandwidth Management: Partner with a vendor proficient in managing bandwidth consumption to optimize system performance. Techniques such as data compression and system configuration adjustments ensure efficient bandwidth utilization, preventing disruptions.


7. Artificial Intelligence (AI): Integrate AI technologies to enhance system accuracy and effectiveness. AI-powered analytics enable real-time event detection, improving security by identifying potential threats and automating footage analysis.


8. Scalability: Choose a system capable of accommodating business growth without compromising performance. A scalable solution allows for seamless expansion, ensuring long-term suitability and adaptability to evolving needs.


9. Integration: Integrate the Surveillance System with other security measures such as Access Control and Alarm Systems to create a comprehensive security network. This interconnected approach provides a more effective overall security solution, enhancing protection and situational awareness.


By considering these essential tips, you can confidently select a Commercial Surveillance System that aligns with your business objectives and enhances security and efficiency.
