In a new report focusing on the financial benefits of remote monitoring, the company says that cost of ownership can now be recouped in as little as a year, instead of the five years which was previously typical.
“In the current economic climate this is an important consideration, alongside the determination of system planners to ensure the long term viability of their investments,” says Carl Hayesmore, technical manager of CCTV Center.
CCTV Center is Accredited Panasonic Systems Distributor for the UK and Ireland, and Hayesmore says customers are increasingly specifying the Panasonic iPro 24/7 solution for installations including council vehicle depots, car dealerships, petrol stations, schools and retailers.
The report argues that cost efficiencies are a big factor. Many ‘typical’ end-user organisations can save GB pound 100,000 a year by reducing dependence on on-site guarding and making use of the latest remote CCTV systems, says the report. It also estimates that users save around 70 per cent when they switch from dedicated ISDN lines to IP.
The take up of these systems is also growing because of their attractiveness to installers, Hayesmore says. “For installers, there is the exciting prospect of being able to offer end users an investment they can recoup in the first year – there’s no need to wait until year five before clawing back the cost of ownership.”
