Why Should I Video-enable My Access Control Systems?
Combining video with access control events offers several advantages. You get:
- Better decision making from your operators, who visually verify the identity of individuals requesting access.
- More efficient work processes, as operators can manage video surveillance and access control from one interface.
- More thorough, straightforward post-incident investigations, as you have video information linked to each entry/exit event
