Qognify to Acquire On-Net Surveillance Systems (OnSSI) Group
Qognify, an advisor and technology solution provider for physical security and enterprise incident management, announced has signed a definitive agreement to acquire On-Net Surveillance Systems Inc. (OnSSI) and the OnSSI company, SeeTec GmbH. In bringing these technology solution portfolios together under one roof — including Qognify VisionHub, OnSSI Ocularis and SeeTec Cayuga — Qognify becomes one of the largest VMS, video analytics, PSIM and critical incident management companies in the world. Qognify is backed by global investment firm Battery Ventures.
Also located in Pearl River, N.Y., OnSSI was founded in 2002 with the goal of developing comprehensive and intelligent IP video management software (VMS). Today, the company has an established presence in more than 100 countries, where its Ocularis and Cayuga VMS solutions are relied on by education, gaming, government, healthcare, manufacturing, retail, public safety, transportation and utilities organizations. With Qognify’s proven pedigree in delivering successful projects for financial services companies, mass-transit infrastructure, large international airports and seaports, as well as smart and safe city projects around the world, the acquisition sees the company establish a global position in both the mid-market and enterprise sectors.
