"Avigilon won based on performance, cost and ease of operation."
Officers and administrators at the CKPS manage the Avigilon HD surveillance system using Avigilon control center network video management software (NVMS) with HD stream management and installed 12 Avigilon analog video encoders to dramatically improve the performance of its existing 48 analog cameras. The CKPS has also installed two Avigilon HD NVR with automatic failover to store 30 days of continuous surveillance video with greater reliability and redundancy.
