Security Camera Systems

[Skylinerider]

So the company that provided service to my system at work is kaput. The software I use to manage the 19 or so cameras is going tits up (can't transfer video to disc anymore, etc.), and I need some suggestions on software, cameras, or a company that can give me a quote on upgrading. I need new software to handle my current cameras, and would like to expand and add 5 or 6 more cameras. Thinking about wireless, since we have huge buildings to cover and I won't have to run network cable that way. Any thoughts or experience on this?

I manage/maintain/install the security systems (7 servers, ~110 cameras) at work. We use Video Insight:

It works with pretty much every network camera out there. If you have analog cameras and don't want to upgrade (you should just upgrade but I understand if that isn't an option) we use an encoder:

We use AXIS cameras https://www.axis.com/us/en/ (top of the line, price reflects that) but there are a bunch of good options out there. I get my stuff from Greg Cope with Addtech Controls, his guys also do installs if you need that. Been working with him for ~6 years now.

801-414-9342 is his cell. If you talk to him tell him I referred you and he might take you out to lunch. If you have any more detailed questions (pricing, configuration, etc.) I'm happy to answer.
