Security is a major concern for most property owners. This is the reason why so many of them invest in professional security guards and surveillance cameras. Though all of these measures can be quite effective, they have a number of disadvantages.
Commercial buildings, estates, construction sites, automobile dealerships and other businesses and companies have a lot of equipment that they would like to secure at all times. If it was possible, the owners of these buildings would hire several hundred guards to man every corner of the business at all times. However, this is a costly and impractical practice.
Furthermore, even if there were guards at every corner, the security would still not be full-proof as the guards are vulnerable to fatigue, irregular working schedules, and sleep. This is why a Securview live video monitoring service is the best solution for such businesses.
Security guard compared to remote video monitoring
These include:
- Security guards can get tired after working for a while. They can fall asleep while on duty. This means that the property can be attacked during this time.
- Security guards can miss a lot, even when they are awake.
- Security guards can sometimes get ill. They are also governed by work schedules, and they may have to rest or take coffee breaks.
- Hiring professional security guards can be quite expensive in the long run.
- CCTV cameras are passive surveillance mechanisms. This is because they simply record everything that is happening. The owner of the establishment and law enforcement officials will have to review the tapes after a crime has happened in order to catch the criminals. It cannot be used to actively stop a crime before it happens.
- CCTV cameras are sometimes affected by severe weather conditions. This means that they do not always record the crime when it is happening. Therefore, an intruder can get away with the crime because the cameras were not working properly.
This is the reason why property owners should consider remote video monitoring and surveillance.
With the Securview, the client will literally have eyes all over their property that oversee the area and ensure that nothing suspicious is taking place. The client can therefore rest easy as they know that their property is properly guarded and that crime will be prevented before it happens.
