     * deter potential thieves
     * monitor cash registers
     * record incidents as evidence in insurance claims
     * identify customers and employees
     * monitor hazardous work areas
     * provide security around business premises and parking lots
     * may provide insurance discounts

The most basic CCTV setup would be a single camera and a hard drive recording device. A setup like this could help security in some cases, it is unlikely to be enough for most businesses. Most situations call for multiple cameras. In some cases, a camera that can pan or zoom might be your best choice for large areas. OfficeConnect.Net strongly reccomends remote viewing over the internet. Houston IP Video Surveillance Camera Systems allow your business to be viewed from anywhere including a smart phone or tablet. When the employees know this, the boss is always in the office and productivity goes up. You'll have great fun demonstrating this capability to your employees and even more fun when you don't feel the need to supervise 24/7, because the OfficeConnect.Net system is supervising 24/7 for you.

Evaluating your Houston IP Video Surveillance Camera Systems:

First, consider what you want to monitor: People - employees, vendors, customers, Places - office, parking, manufacturing, loading, storage, Events - deliveries, accidents, deadlines

Next, decide what picture quality you need. Quality can refer to both how detailed the image is and how fast the frame rate is. Frame rate is simply a measure of how many individual pictures make up the video. "Full motion," what you see on television and on VHS tapes, is 30 frames per second, or fps. Most often, CCTV systems record at slower rates, which result in more jerky-looking images but saves hard drive space. However, OfficeConnect.Net believes that the radical reduction in hard drive costs has made that type of business camera surveillance system a bad investment. You save very little and get an inferior product. You've seen these bad systems that were evidence at a crime scene and all you see is a shadowy figure.

Think about how your cctv system will be monitored. Will you simply record at all times, and only review the recording when a problem occurs? Or will a dedicated employess monitor the system?

Is your priority is to deter potential crimes or to catch perpetrators? Your priority will influence your purchasing decisions. If you are more interested in deterring certain activities, large, noticeable cameras are your best option. Making an attempt to catch criminals on video without them being aware of it usually requires undetectable cameras, which cost more both for components and for installment.

Virtually every business today has a  IP Video Surveillance Camera Systems that records to a hard drive and that can be remotely monitored. The market place has determined that such systems more than pay for themselves in increased productivity, reduced theft and protection against false claims.
