The next generation of alarm verification is coming and it is going to be huge.
For over 50 years, Sonitrol has had audio alarm verification.
Sonitrol’s verified alarms are sound-based – not motion-based – so when an alarm is triggered,our monitoring professionals can actually listen-in to determine whether a break-in is in progress, or whether a false alarm has occurred. (www.sonitrol.com).
Now the partnership with 3xlogic, Sonitrol will be able to offer a huge advance in verified alarm technology, audio and video verification. Being able to see and hear what goes on at the protected premise will allow Sonitrol operators to share with police what they are walking into even more than ever before. The Sonitrol operators will get a verified video alarm and a live look-in. Eyes and ears protecting your property.
Having worked in and around a Monitoring Station has allowed me to hear actual verified audio alarms in progress. You hear glass break and voices talking inside a property that is armed. The operator, dispatches the police and informs them they hear two individuals inside near the west side entrance. Then the audio of the police apprehension. And Sonitrol has done that over 172,000 times. More than any other alarm company. Listen to actual clips.
Now bring video integration into the mix. A panic alarm comes into the monitoring station from a bank. Audio comes in over the speakers, “put the money in the bag”, and video is available where the operator can not only see the recorded video of the alarm incident, but gets to see live views as well. What they are wearing, how many the operator sees, how many customers appear to be there, and if there are outdoor cameras even make and model of a vehicle. That information will be of great benefit for the police coming on site.
Sonitrol of Evansville is testing this solution now, and hope to be offering it to customers soon. Sonitrol customers already receive the benefit of the lowest false alarm rate in the industry with the highest apprehensions. With audio and video verification, Sonitrol customers will receive even quicker response from the police to protect your property. Contact your sales consultant for more information.
