Nebraska Non-Profit Expands Operations and Boosts Security With the Arcules Cloud

Nebraska Non-Profit Expands Operations and Boosts Security With the Arcules Cloud
The organization recently streamlined their security infrastructure through the Arcules unified cloud platform. The Arcules solution allows scalability for Together by being cost effective, simple to use, and compatible with existing IP cameras and networks.
Together is a non-profit based in Omaha, Nebraska that has supported its local community for the past 46 years. Its mission is to prevent and end hunger and homelessness. Together works in the Omaha and surrounding communities to help those in need find and keep their housing, get access to food, and build income stability

The organization recently streamlined their security infrastructure through the Arcules unified cloud platform. The Arcules solution allows scalability for Together by being cost effective, simple to use, and compatible with existing IP cameras and networks.

Like many nonprofits, Together runs lean to preserve and direct resources back to the people who need them most. In 2018, President and CEO Mike Hornacek made the decision to adopt the cloud across their entire organization, from their enterprise software to phone systems and video surveillance infrastructure. The non-profit recently updated their cameras and ultimately, desired a cloud-based solution that would allow them to preserve their recent investments. 

As a longtime Milestone customer, the security upgrade needed to be able to integrate with their Milestone-XProtect video management software. After researching cloud-based security solutions, Hornacek decided that Arcules was capable of fulfilling all of their requirements and would allow for future scalability for the organization. The Arcules’ open platform enabled Together to leverage their existing cameras and provide cost and operational efficiencies.

“By adopting a cloud-based platform, Together has been able to significantly reduce security management and maintenance,” said Hornacek. “Software upgrades are automatic, and continuous monitoring and proactive support alerts our team to potential issues before they become problems. As a nonprofit, we are often spread thin, and Arcules cloud-based infrastructure has made us more effective in ensuring the safety of our facilities and participants.”

“Arcules is proud to play a part in offering our unified cloud platform solution for Together,” said Nigel Waterton, CRO, Arcules. “During the COVID-19 pandemic, demand for Together’s services surged by more than 400% across all programs and their volunteer count was cut in half. Today, they have the support of a robust technology backbone that empowers them to monitor activity from any location and provides peace-of-mind that safety and security are enhanced, even when staffing is reduced. As Together Omaha continues to grow, we look forward to scaling with them.”
