As the biggest physical security manufacturer in the world, it is no surprise that Hikvision also has the biggest partner network in the global industry.
To ensure customers receive the best possible Hikvision video surveillance solution in the shortest possible time, the company recently released Hik-Partner Pro Designer, a fully integrated tool that helps integrators, installers and other security professionals streamline planning processes for each new project. As part of the company’s partner platform, it fills the gap between project site survey and technical quotation, turning several painstaking steps into a few clicks, while ensuring highest precision and eliminating potential sources of planning error.
Integrators and installers of Hikvision solutions can use the new tool
for free across all geographies, showcasing Hikvision’s commitment to its partners wordwide.
As part of our work on
our guidebook for the new tool, which seeks to proactively answer all questions prospective users might have, such as what it can be used for and how it can be deployed, we at asmag conducted a short interview to learn more about what motivated Hikvision to develop it.
asmag.com: What motivated Hikvision to design the new tool?
Hikvision: As demand for integrated AIoT solutions grows, installers increasingly need a single professional platform that connects site surveying, solution design, product selection, and quotation. However, existing third-party tools often rely on outdated data, provide inaccurate information, and lack the AI capabilities required for today’s complex projects.
To address these challenges, Hikvision developed a proprietary, reliable platform that streamlines the entire workflow—from survey to quotation. Free, user-friendly, and professional, the tool helps installers improve efficiency, enhance service quality, and increase project win rates. It also reflects Hikvision’s strategic shift toward digital transformation and stronger support for the SME market.
asmag.com: What are the most common pain points in the planning of a security project for SMEs?
Hikvision: SMEs and their installers typically face four major challenges: Fragmented processes, dependence on manual or third-party tools, limited scenario-based matching and insufficient AI support.
Together, these issues slow decision-making, increase project risk, and reduce competitiveness in the SME security market.
asmag.com: What tangible benefits does the new tool offer, for example in speeding up the planning process, cutting costs and delivering better results?
Hikvision: The new tool delivers measurable benefits in several key areas:Improved planning efficiency, reduced costs and error rates, stronger solution competitiveness, and faster return on investment.
Overall, the tool empowers SMEs and their installers to work more efficiently, compete more effectively, and unlock greater value in their AIoT security initiatives.
