For many companies, transitioning their security systems from analog to megapixel/IP can be a daunting task. Being faced with the possibility of learning a whole new system, training employees, rewiring, and all of the other worries that come with switching systems can be reason enough to sway a company into sticking with an antiquated system. DVR Distributors recognized this trend, and began a training program in 2006, geared to educate companies on how to navigate the transition between analog and IP/ Megapixel.
While training seminars are not uncommon in the security industry, DVR boasts a distinctive approach. Lawrence Leiker, director of business development at DVR states, “Ours [training seminar] is more of a “hands-on” format. It is about practical knowledge and how you put everything together in a megapixel project and make it work. As opposed to just, ‘Hey, here’s the manufacturer, and we are just going to sell you their stuff and we are going to tell you everything that is great about their product, but not really how to use it.’” DVR says the program has had a great response.
