A Look at Ava Security Cameras & Their Cloud-Based Solutions 

Is your business’s security system outdated? Unsure? Here are a few clues…If your surveillance cameras don’t feature any AI or analytics, and if all your video footage is stored in a drive on-premise, it’s time to think about an upgrade. 

Just like any other technology, CCTV security cameras have evolved and improved in recent years. As a security technology installer, our team in Kansas City, MO, has recently become a dealer of Ava security cameras and their cloud-based systems. If you’re concerned about safety for your business, here’s why Ava and cloud security is the smartest choice.

Why the Cloud? 

Let’s say there’s an incident at your facility, and you need to provide video evidence to the authorities or insurance provider. You can’t risk anyone tampering with video feeds—or accidentally overriding them. Physical storage systems can only store so much content at a time and are vulnerable to vandalism and damage. 

Cloud storage services allow you to customize how long footage is stored and can be accessed anytime online or through an app. When you use a system like Ava, you access all Ava and third-party cameras and access control devices from a single interface. 

Why Ava Cameras? 

Ava cameras are intelligent enough to know what it’s seeing and whether or not to alert your security system. So if there’s the routine mail truck arriving midday or an animal at the back door, it won’t create any “boy who cried wolf” scenarios. 

Instead, Ava cameras are programmed with AI video analytics that can recognize and track specific people, objects, and even sounds. If you’re concerned about storage costs, Ava cameras use analytics to determine when to record. It can even vary the bitrate within a stream, so if the camera sees uninteresting, run-of-the-mill activity, it will reduce the resolution to save storage space on the cloud.
