Genetec is a finalist in the Cloud/SaaS category of this year’s Benchmark Innovation Awards with their Genetec Security Center SaaS.
Security Center SaaS is a unified physical security software that’s offered as a service. It is designed to play nicely with your existing tech stack and to meet your needs, wherever you are on your physical security journey.
It brings together access control, video management, forensic search, intrusion monitoring, automation and many other advanced security capabilities through one intuitive interface. Furthermore, it promises never to lock you in or limit your options.
We refuse to restrict organisations to a narrow choice of supported cameras, devices and IoT sensors. Especially given a physical security system will inevitably need to evolve over time to address new requirements.
Equally, we don’t believe it makes sense to force organisations into a needless decision between deploying everything on-premises or everything in the cloud. That’s why Security Center SaaS is built from the ground up to ensure you can deploy and handle complex workloads wherever it makes the most sense.
Optimised for installers AND end users
As deployments become increasingly sophisticated, end users rely on channel partners to configure the advanced features that drive efficiency and increase ROI. That’s why considerable effort has also been put into simplifying the deployment experience.
For example, with the launch of Security Center SaaS we set ourselves the objective of ensuring a new device can be fully operational – from purchasing the license and enrolment, through to recording video and unlocking doors – in just ten minutes. Equally we’ve been able to reduce the training curriculum by 40% when compared to our on-premises solutions. That means less time spent on installation and more on ensuring systems are acquired to the fullest.
Chris Worrell, Sales and Marketing Director, Total Security Protection Ltd, says:
“We really appreciate the thought that Genetec has put into the design of Security Center SaaS. Unlike many of its competitors, Genetec has built its offering with an appreciation that, especially for enterprise customers, we channel partners are critical to customer and project success.
Back-end enhancements, such as the automated quoting and ordering process in the new Genetec portal, may not immediately sound the most exciting of features to highlight. However, it’s game-changing as it means we can have systems fully operational within minutes of placing an order.”
Built for what’s now and what’s next
With the launch of Security Center SaaS we’ve moved to a continuous software delivery model. On average we’re rolling out new and enhanced features every 12 days. A good example is a multilanguage generative AI based search function that allows end users to search for people or objects in security footage based on specific attributes. For example, “black hatchbacks” or “people in a blue t-shirt”.
Stijn Jonker, Compliance & Security Director, AtlasEdge, concludes with his own experience:
AtlasEdge selected Genetec as a unified platform to protect its Data Centres. During the decision-making process, AtlasEdge carefully evaluated the Genetec on-premises solution against its SaaS offering. Ultimately, based on factors such as agility, speed of deployment, and service assurance, the assessment favored the Genetec SaaS offering. Since then, AtlasEdge has had no regrets with their choice of the Genetec SaaS solution.
You likely won’t know exactly how your own organisation’s needs and requirements will evolve over time. But rest assured, Security Center SaaS comes with the in-built flexibility to adapt to your priorities.
