AXIS Companion software delivers real-time alerts and multi-user support

Axis Communications announces the release of AXIS Companion software for simple, secure and reliable video management. This easy-to-use video surveillance solution is optimized for small systems up to 16 cameras and is ideal for small businesses needing to monitor their premises, people and assets. AXIS Companion software is intuitive and easy to operate, letting users quickly learn to navigate the system with minimal instruction. Alert notifications keep business owners aware of any suspicious activity and can be customized to suit the customer’s business needs.

The new software includes 3 different levels of multi-user support (Administrator, Operator, and Viewer) making it easy to ensure every user has access to what they need. For instance, it’s possible to grant administrators access to everything while only allowing other users to access things like PTZ control and video playback. Additionally, Axis Secure Remote Access technology allows users to access live or recorded video on a mobile device or PC without the need for network or router configuration. And, thanks to Axis Remote System Management it’s possible to restart or upgrade devices and manage user permissions without being physically onsite and in many cases, resolve the issue right there on the spot.

Key features include:

• Real-time alert notifications
• Different levels of multi-user support
• Remote system management

This cost-effective solution is easy to setup, which helps ensure every installation is trouble-free and reduces the cost of training and support. Furthermore, it helps increase speed and efficiency by eliminating lengthy waiting periods and reducing system downtime.
