Jon Jones ● Nov 2 ● 11 min read

When it comes to security, there is no such thing as being too cautious. Professional video monitor services are a vital part of keeping your business safe. By having a team of experts constantly keeping an eye on your property, you can rest assured that any suspicious activity will be dealt with immediately. After all, these services use high-tech cameras and software to monitor activity around the clock. In this article, we’ll take a look at some of the benefits of professional security video monitoring and why it’s worth the investment.

What are Professional Video Monitor Services?

When it comes to protecting your business, professional video monitor services are a must. Professional video monitor services include the use of surveillance cameras so that security professionals can monitor your business premises 24/7. This type of surveillance can help deter crime and improve safety at your workplace. There are many benefits to using this type of security system, including deterring crime, having evidence in the event of an incident, improved emergency response time and more.

The Benefits of Professional Video Monitor Services

With so many potential threats out there, it’s simply not worth taking the risk of not being prepared. A good security system has professional video monitor services that can provide you with peace of mind. Here are just a few of the benefits of professional video monitor services:

• Deter Crime: Professional video monitor security agents can quickly spot any potential threats and take action to prevent them. This can help to deter crime and keep your property and employees safe.
• Evidence in the Event of Crime: In case a crime does occur on your premises, professional video monitor services provide you with evidence to prosecute the offenders.
• Improved Emergency Response: Video monitor security guards can quickly respond to emergencies by calling the appropriate authorities. This increase emergency response time.
• Cost-Effective: A professional video monitor security guard is a cost-effective solution. Rather than paying for more full-time employees, you only have to pay for the services of a single professional security agent.
• Around-the-Clock Protection: With the click of a button, you can enable professional video monitor services for 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to protect your property and employees
• Peace of Mind: Knowing that someone is constantly monitoring your security footage can give you peace of mind and allow you to focus on other aspects of your business or organization.

How Do Professional Video Monitor Services Work?

Professional video monitoring services are not included with all security systems. Consequently, it is vital to actively seek out security systems that provide round-the-clock monitoring by trained security personnel. With Verkada’s Alarm license and security cameras, you can rest easy knowing that your business, facility, or organization is protected by professional video monitor services. But how exactly do professional video monitor services work?

First, you decide which cameras will be monitored and when. Then, whenever a human is detected in the scene, Verkada’s sophisticated AI analytics alert our 24/7 monitoring agents. Alarms can be generated by other Verkada devices, such as access control or intrusion sensors.

Second, as soon as an alarm is triggered, monitoring personnel will review the associated video footage to determine whether anyone or anything is in immediate danger. Finally, if there is a genuine threat, the monitoring agent will immediately contact the customer’s call list. Customers can also ask representatives to contact emergency services on their behalf. The agent reduces the likelihood of false alarms by dismissing the incident if there is no immediate danger.

Essentially, the Verkada agents in charge of your building’s professional video monitor services (1) detect unusual activity, (2) investigate the situation, and (3) take the initiative if an emergency arises

Panoramic

Panoramic is the first view mode of the fisheye camera. The camera will have a 180° horizontal field of view in this mode. The camera can be tilted to adjust the fields of view to your preferences.

Four-Way Split

Four-Way Split is the second mode of the fisheye camera. You can monitor four distinct areas all at the same time using the Four-Way Split mode. It’s especially useful for monitoring an outdoor corner, a hallway intersection, or when replacing multiple cameras with one. Site administrators can adjust the Four-Way Split’s angles to better suit their needs and maximize the fields of view.

Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) is the third, adaptable mode of the fisheye camera. You can choose to display the video feed in Pan-Tilt-Zoom as a 360° view, a tiles view with various angles, or by using your digital PTZ functionality to pan, tilt, and zoom around the image.
