Hikvision’s Custom-Tailored VMS Software Protects New York City Residents
Hikvision® USA, City of Industry, Calif., custom-tailored its video management system (VMS) software for Omni New York LLC, a real estate development company that specializes in revitalizing urban neighborhoods. Using an extensive security solution that included an on-site security team and thousands of Hikvision cameras, the firm said it improved the quality of life for more than 4,000 residents living in River Park Towers in Bronx, N.Y.
Reliant Safety, a subsidiary of Omni, had very specific requirements for the security system. Essential prerequisites for the VMS included ease of use and the ability to manage new megapixel cameras alongside preexisting installations on a single platform. Reliant turned to Hikvision for VMS software that not only accomplished this goal, but permitted access to multiple users spread over several different locations. “During special investigations, we identified a need to connect with the New York City Police Department,” explained Ash Abolos, vice president of technology at Reliant Safety. “We wanted the ability to remotely link the NYPD to our private security personnel, and Hikvision went above and beyond to give us that functionality.”
