We’ve all seen unfortunate crimes go unpunished because of poor video quality.  Sometimes, the pixels and blurriness are simply too much, and law enforcement can’t decipher who the perpetrator is.  It’s possible your business has fallen prey to this issue, even though you thought video surveillance would be the ultimate safety net.  In reality, updating your video surveillance software can mean the difference between a successful crime and rightful justice.  To know if your surveillance needs to be upgraded to IP security cameras, read on.

You can’t recognize facial or life features.

 

Pay close attention to the footage of your customers–can you distinguish faces or other permanent features?  Nose shapes?  Jaw structures?  Tattoos?  Scars?  If not, you probably need to upgrade.  This is the easiest way to tell if you need a new system or not, because the purpose of your video surveillance should be to identify anyone who may commit a crime.  And now, with infrared technology, your criminals won’t be under the cover of darkness.  Your new cameras can pick up facial features, even in the dark.

 

You can’t access the footage when you’re not near the cameras.

 

Checking your cameras when you’re on the other side of town is a privilege that only comes with updated IP security cameras.  It can be frustrating to hear of security reports from employees after you return, as you probably want to be aware of it while it’s happening.  With remote access, employees and managers can alert one another with video, so you’re never out of the loop when it comes to security.  Not to mention, you’ve got live, 24/7 access to your camera footage in HD…all from your smartphone.  Settle for only the best when it comes to your businesses’ security.

 

Your system could be down and you wouldn’t know.

 

A downed system means your company is at risk.  Older technologies won’t alert you when they aren’t functioning.  IP security cameras can do this, and they possess a lot of other alert features that will prove helpful to you.  For instance, if you have motion detectors, an IP system can send you an email alert when they are triggered.  Camera not connecting? No problem- you’ll receive an alert if there is a camera that is not recording or transmitting video.  Alerts can allow you to address an issue promptly and efficiently.
