We look after eleven sites across the North West and our old CCTV was a patchwork of recorders, each with its own login, and two of them quietly recording nothing at all. Pulling footage after an incident meant sending someone out to site with a memory stick and hoping for the best.
Verkada has taken all of that away. Every camera and every door sits in one Command dashboard, footage is on screen in seconds from a laptop or a phone, and sharing a clip with the police is now a link rather than a lost afternoon. We added access control at two of the sites last year and brought the alarms onto the same platform, so the team only has one system to learn instead of three.
The install was tidy, the reseller clearly knew the kit, and support have come back quickly on the couple of occasions we have needed them. Updates happen quietly in the background, which our IT lead values far more than I expected him to.
It was not the cheapest quote on the table and we went in knowing that. A year on, nobody is questioning the spend.
