Qognify, a provider of video and enterprise incident management (EIM) solutions, announced a global video management system (VMS) roll-out project with research-driven biopharmaceutical company Boehringer Ingelheim.

Boehringer Ingelheim has a global footprint with about 180 sites around the world. To effectively support video surveillance, Boehringer Ingelheim decided to standardize its hardware and software approach in the configuration and rollout of IT systems. Thanks to the ease of deployment, high scalability and customization abilities of Qognify‘s Cayuga VMS, Boehringer Ingelheim could significantly reduce deployment time for new CCTV instances, reducing overall project cost and time effort. This also includes physical security applications, in particular the video management system (VMS). This variety of sites introduced a challenge for VMS systems that could support end users with their requirements as well satisfy IT needs for stability and ease of support.

To find the right VMS that would meet all its current and future requirements, Boehringer Ingelheim conducted an in-depth vendor selection process, pitting the market leaders in video management systems against each other and comparing them with over 200 relevant questions from areas of IT security, system expandability, and reliability of operation, as well as ease of deployment or expandability, followed by physical testing conducted by end users and technical team.

Out of the process, Boehringer Ingelheim selected Qognify’s VMS solutions as ideal for its multi-site enterprise environments, with its focus on easy installation, configuration, and management. Supporting the majority of network cameras available on the market, Cayuga manages all camera feeds to enable holistic video monitoring at a glance, whether centrally on-site or remotely, with ease.

Thanks to Cayuga ease of deployment, high scalability and customization abilities, Boehringer Ingelheim could significantly reduce deployment time for new CCTV instances, reducing overall project cost and time effort. In addition, scalability and customization allows the company to customize the system according to customer needs and improve their level of satisfaction from the solution.
