Genetec Inc. announced that Toronto’s Woodbine Entertainment Group (WEG) has updated its overall security stance with Genetec Security Center and Genetec Clearance. WEG selected the open, unified Genetec platform with an eye toward future growth.
Founded in 1881 as the Ontario Jockey Club, WEG owns and operates Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto, Woodbine Mohawk Park in Campbellville. WEG properties welcome over seven million visitors annually. Over the years the WEG security team deployed many different physical security technologies, but weren’t always getting access to the latest advancements in a timely way. They were also managing video, access control and other tasks from different monitors and applications, which slowed response and investigations. Knowing expansion plans were underway for a new leasehold casino and entertainment venue, the team took the opportunity to partner with a forward-thinking video management solution supplier.
