White Barn is a popular wedding venue in Pittsburgh that offers a rustic and unique wedding experience, including Amish inspired décor and access to a lilypond with paddleboats.
Although their business was booming, transitioning to a multi-location business presented new and uncharted security challenges – especially without a surveillance system in place. This prompted them to seek out a solution that would address four key challenges:
After considering several security system options, they chose Alibi Cloud VS because of its off-premise storage solution and its cost-effective, scalable features. Eight cloud-enabled bullet cameras were installed to cover all critical areas for both locations.
Since the camera-to-cloud install, UPS franchise owners benefit from a secure multi-site franchise business. If a break-in occurs to any one of their stores, Cloud VS provides them with secure video surveillance stored in an ultra-secure data center – with footage they can view on their mobile device and send to authorities as soon as it occurs. Since they’ve eliminated the need for any on-premise equipment and maintenance and upgrades are handled automatically with their Cloud VS subscription, they never have to worry about unforeseen expenses or going over budget. As they continue to grow in the future, Cloud VS will continue to present the ideal solution – allowing them to add or delete cameras, users, locations, and storage as their business needs change.
White Barn is a popular wedding venue in Pittsburgh that offers a rustic and unique wedding experience, including Amish inspired décor and access to a lilypond with paddleboats.
With so many guests coming and going, their high-traffic ‘hot spots’ were causing security and safety risks:
The owners of White Barn didn’t have a surveillance system in place but knew they needed one to keep tabs on their property and oversee guest and staff activity when they were off-premise or working remotely. If trespassers vandalize their property, the owners need data evidence they can remotely view, download, and send to local authorities. With upcoming plans to expand their services (including a Bed & Breakfast), they required a security system that could allow them to install cloud throughout various parts of their property by connecting to a wireless network.
After considering options from several providers, they chose Alibi Cloud VS because of its ability to scale with their growing business cost-effectively. They installed six cloud-enabled bullet cameras in front of their barn, inside the dance hall, kitchen, and along their exits —with plans to add another 4-6 cameras after their Bed & Breakfast is built.
Since the camera-to-cloud install, White Barn owners now have around-the-clock surveillance. If a trespasser vandalizes their property, they’ll get notified in real-time on their smartphone, which they can then download and send to authorities within minutes. Once their Bed & Breakfast is built, they can easily add more cameras, adjust user permissions, and increase storage retention. With Alibi Cloud VS now in place, owners can protect their assets, guests, and staff with a simple, scalable, and secure solution.
The Southart Fire Department is located in Monmouth County, New Jersey. They operate out of two stations that primarily protect a residential area of 20,000 people within 18 miles.
While they had an on-premise video security system in place, it wasn’t cost-effective or scalable for their growing department. Precisely, they needed a system that would seamlessly address three main challenges:
After considering several providers' options, they chose a cloud video security system for their flexible and scalable solution offerings. They installed 25 4MP cloud-enabled dome cameras in all critical areas across two locations. This included several cameras in each station’s driveway, front entrance, back entrances, and interior hallways. All cameras had starlight technology, allowing management to benefit from bright surveillance– even when they need to capture video footage in total darkness.
Eliminating on-premise recording devices and restrictive user permissions allowed the fire department to realize a higher security level and more flexibility than a traditional surveillance system could offer. As their department's needs continue to grow their cloud security solution provides a simplicity they couldn’t achieve with a traditional system alone.
Five years ago, Ronald, a police officer in West Virginia, purchased a surveillance system for his home. Working overtime so often motivated him to buy an on-premise security system that would give him the ability to view live footage of his property and pets even while he was at work.
While his on-premise security system provided the basics like 24/7 surveillance, he didn't anticipate how expensive the upkeep would be. Two failed hard drives cost him over a thousand dollars in replacement fees.
After getting a recommendation from a fellow police officer, Ronald chose Alibi Cloud VS for two main reasons:
With Cloud VS in place, Ronald now has a fully secure and super reliable video surveillance system. If an intruder enters his property, he’s able to capture trespasser activity and get instant alerts on his smartphone. Without on-premise equipment to manage, fix, or repair, Ronald now has the peace of mind that his system is always on and always recording.
Located just outside of Dallas, Texas, Outdoor Powersports USA (OPUSA) is one of Texas's fastest-growing dealerships for outdoor vehicles such as ATVs, motorcycles, golf carts, and trailers.
OPUSA was planning on expanding their dealership operations to accommodate additional inventory and services. Because OPUSA was previously the victim of multiple break-ins - resulting in stolen ATVs, motorcycles, and trailers - they wanted to ensure proper security coverage for any new expansion. Despite having an existing security system, OPUSA needed to address the following security needs:
After considering several options, they decided to replace their on-premise security system with Alibi’s Cloud VS platform because it gave them both the capabilities and peace of mind of an off-premise recording and flexible storage solution. They installed seventeen 4.0-Megapixel Alibi cloud-enabled dome cameras externally in their most critical areas for high-resolution coverage. Cloud VS features include:
Within a few short months, OPUSA has captured three robberies with their Cloud VS cameras – leading to arrests on the spot. Every time someone trespasses on their property, Cloud VS alerts them to their mobile device as it's occurring in real-time. Within seconds, they can view and upload the footage and send it to the authorities.
Because Cloud VS provides 24/7 recording to an off-site cloud-based platform, they never have to worry about on-premise equipment to protect or maintain– which has already put hundreds of dollars back in their pockets. As they continue to expand and grow, Cloud VS’s scalability features allow them to increase or decrease their storage, cameras, and users at a moment’s notice – providing them with an ultra-secure video security solution for years to come.
Mattison Avenue Salon Suites & Spa is a fast-growing corporate franchise with locations across Texas, Arizona, and Florida. Their unique upscale salon concept allows independent beauty professionals to lease beautifully designed salon spaces that include high-end décor, utilities, and networking resources to help grow their business. They currently have sixteen locations and counting, with no surveillance system in place.
Like many multi-location franchises, Mattison Avenue’s biggest challenges involve managing their high salon traffic and turnover. With so many customers, leasees, and deliveries coming and going, the owners require remote viewing to keep tabs on all locations from a centralized interface. When a shipment arrives or a service technician is called in to fix a leaky faucet, management needs the ability to visually verify who they are letting in and be able to grant them one-time access remotely.
After assessing several solutions from various security providers, Mattison selected Alibi Cloud VS, which best met the scalability demands of their fast-growing franchise business and made centralized user and credential management simple. They had twelve Mattison Avenue Multi-Location Franchise | Multi-User Management cameras installed per location with 30-day storage capacity, along with plans to add more cameras as Mattison Suites continues to grow. Eliminating on-premise recording devices and restrictive user permissions allowed the company to realize a higher level of security and more flexibility than a traditional surveillance system could offer.
With Alibi Cloud VS now in place, Mattison’s management team now has the peace of mind of a fully secure business. From their PC or tablet, users can view crystal clear surveillance footage, and create zones by region for easy viewing. When a package arrives, they can verify with confidence whom they are letting in, providing them with an extra layer of security. As the company grows, it’s simple to secure each new location, making it immediately accessible for centralized management.
High Park Schools integrates college preparatory academics with a Christian perspective. Founded in 1968, they quickly began to grow and now occupy two separate campuses in Austin, Texas. Although their security system adequately protected the high school campus when it opened in 2009, it’s since become outdated and is no longer able to meet campus security challenges.
Hyde Park administration knew they needed to upgrade their existing cameras for a more robust, scalable system. To meet the campus’ new security initiatives, they had to solve three main operational challenges:
After considering several on-premise options, they chose a hybrid system of Alibi Security HD cameras and Cloud VS, due to its unique cloud features and total cost of ownership. Thirty-one 5 MP HDTV1 Turret Starlight cameras, two 6 MP IP Turret Starlight cameras and 9 cloud-enabled cameras were added to their campus – all ideally suited to provide the school with facial recognition, intrusion detection, and clear video.
Hyde Park’s ultimate goal was to create as safe a school campus as possible. With a fully covered campus in place, they now have the means to record trespasser and student activity with crystal clear resolution. Users get notified of activity in real-time, and within minutes, they can download the footage from their app and send it to authorities. With modernized, hybrid video surveillance designed to mitigate their toughest campus security challenges, Hyde Park High School can soar ahead as a ‘one of a kind community’ with confidence.
Located in Austin, Texas, Healthworks Ergonomics offers local business on-site or at-home ergonomics training, evaluations, and at-risk assessments so employees can feel their best at work.
Healthworks is located in the heart of South Austin’s busiest area, and although they had an on-premise security system, several issues needed to be addressed to increase the overall safety and security of their facility:
The direct costs of replacing their recorder and stolen equipment, along with indirect costs of downtime while waiting for their hardware replacement and interrupted footage, were costing them unforeseen expenses their budget didn’t allow for. Their most recent break-in prompted them to seek out a more reliable and modern solution.
After considering several options, they decided on Alibi’s Cloud VS platform because of its scalable and cost-effective solutions. They installed eight 4.0-Megapixel cloud cameras with built-in starlight technology and high-definition video. They placed four cameras outside, providing the owners with 24/7 advanced nighttime surveillance to see clear, sharp images up to 120′ in the dark.
When intruders come on their property, the system’s advanced analytics, which includes intrusion detection and face recognition, notify the owners immediately by an instant alert on their smartphone – which they can then send to authorities by date and time. Additionally, the cameras include Starlight chipsets, allowing them to capture full-color video at night using the neighborhood's ambient light. As Healthworks Ergonomics expands from a single to multi-site business, Cloud VS’s flexible scalability features allow them to increase or decrease their storage, cameras, and user permissions on demand. Cloud VS is the ideal security application, providing them with the technology, support, and scalability they require.
EmergeOrtho (EO) has grown into an award-winning multi-site business providing orthopedic, spine, and pain management services over the last decade, with 45 locations across North Carolina.
With a rapidly growing footprint, they knew they needed a video surveillance system that was robust and flexible enough to meet four key challenges:
Although they initially considered an on-premise security system, EmergeOrtho owners chose Alibi Security's Cloud VS solution because of its flexibility, scalability, and simplicity. They implemented the Cloud VS at their busiest clinic – installing eleven cloud-enabled cameras to cover all key areas and immediately realized the following benefits:
With Alibi Cloud VS implemented at their busiest clinic, EmergeOrtho is already looking to bring a second location online and continue the rollout. EO owners have already realized that Alibi Cloud VS makes monitoring the safety of staff and patients easy. The solution allows them to remain compliant with medical regulations for video footage retention while maintaining a flexible infrastructure that can handle unlimited cameras and users. Cloud VS is the ideal choice for this multi-site business – offering a scalable and cost-effective solution to support their security, compliance, and operational needs as they continue to grow.
Dream Salon and Spa (DS&S) is a popular salon located in Miami, Florida, offering hair, nails, and spa treatments. Since their opening, they’ve seen steady business, increased their service offerings, and started making plans to expand to a second location.
Like many small retail businesses, SD&S’s most significant security challenges involved managing fast-growing and evolving business needs. They needed a cost-effective solution that would meet these three challenges:
After considering several providers' options, they chose a cloud video security solution and had eight 2.0 Megapixel cloud cameras installed in all of their most critical, key areas.
Because their new cloud security solution streams video footage and automatically updates its system to the cloud, DS&S no longer has to worry about paying out-of-pocket for unexpected maintenance or hardware costs, which has provided them with an immediate return on their investment. The owners can now easily grant or delete user permission with the click of a mouse, allowing them to add more cameras and storage under one account as they grow. They have coverage of all critical areas of their business, including the parking lot to protect staff, with advanced Starlight Cameras providing color video at night. When an incident occurs, their cloud solution will capture the event, which they can easily retrieve as evidence.
Located in Cleveland, Ohio, DayGlo is the world’s largest manufacturer of daylight fluorescent pigments. Since the 1950s, DayGlo has provided some of the biggest brands (like Tide, Raisin Bran, and Tyson) with bright, stand-out colors for their advertisements, packaging, and more.
Like many multi-location retail businesses, DayGlo struggled to keep up with the demands and complexities of overseeing a high demand product across multiple locations on a national level:
After considering several providers' options, they decided to replace their on-premise security system with Alibi’s Cloud VS platform because of its scalable, multi-site capabilities. They installed 13-4.0-Megapixel cloud bullet cameras in all of their most critical, key areas – all of which are ideally suited to provide Dayglo’s management with facial recognition, intrusion detection, and clear video.
Since the camera-to-cloud install, DayGlo’s company is protected and secure on a storewide and nationwide level. When daily deliveries arrive in any one of their warehouses, they can remote access into a centralized interface, verify who they are letting in and grant one-time access into the building. Cloud VS’s flexible scalability features allow them to increase or decrease their storage, cameras, and users at a moment’s notice. They now have the peace of a fully scalable off-premise video security solution that secures their fast-growing, multi-site business.
Since 2005, Cackle & Oink have quickly made a name for themselves as one of the most popular BBQ restaurants in the Dallas metropolitan area and have consistently won numerous awards thanks to their famous brisket and family-like hospitality.
Over the last several years, Cackle & Oink owners had experienced some limitations with their on-premise system, including:
After considering several providers' options, they chose Alibi Cloud VS because of its simple and scalable platform. They installed nine 6.0 Megapixel cloud-enabled cameras to the front and back entrance and exits, parking lot, above the cash registers, and the kitchen where accidents and theft were most likely to occur. Since their cameras included starlight technology, the owners now benefit from bright surveillance technology – even when activity occurs in total darkness.
Since installing Alibi Cloud VS, any firmware upgrades or maintenance is handled for them and automatically applied, eliminating the labor costs they used to pay to security professional. Cloud VS also allows Cackle & Oink owners to benefit from a simplified credential management system, where they can add or delete user permission remotely. If an accident like a slip-and-fall or employee theft occurs, their cloud-to-cameras ensure they’re fully covered with 24/7 off-premise video footage. If they expand to more locations in the future, they can add additional cameras and users with the click of their mouse.
