Is Your Avigilon System Delivering 24/7 Protection?

Having the right CCTV system is a great start—but without active monitoring, it’s just recording incidents, not preventing them. If you’ve invested in Avigilon, you already have one of the most advanced surveillance systems on the market. Now’s the time to unlock its full potential through online (remote) monitoring.

At Safer Community Security, we help Perth businesses get more from their Avigilon systems—through 24/7 monitoring, smart analytics, and fast incident response.

 

What Makes Avigilon Ideal for Online Security Monitoring?

Avigilon’s high-resolution cameras and AI-powered video analytics make it a perfect match for remote monitoring services. Instead of manually watching every feed, the system detects unusual events—then alerts trained operators who can respond in real time.

Key capabilities include:
• Appearance Search – quickly locate individuals across multiple cameras
• Unusual Motion Detection (UMD) – alerts for unexpected movement patterns
• License Plate Recognition – ideal for carpark and perimeter control
• Self-learning Video Analytics – reduces false alarms over time
• Remote video access – view live or recorded footage from anywhere

Tip: If your Avigilon system is already installed, integrating it with a 24/7 monitoring centre is simpler and more cost-effective than most upgrades.

 

Common Gaps in Unmonitored Avigilon Systems

Even with world-class hardware, many systems fall short when left unmonitored. During our Avigilon audits, we often find:

• Cameras active—but no one watching after-hours
• Analytics not configured—leaving smart detection unused
• No remote access set up—forcing manual footage review
• No real-time response—alarms triggered but ignored
• Outdated firmware—missing key security enhancements

These gaps can turn a high-end system into a passive one—and leave your property vulnerable.

 

How to Enhance Your Avigilon System with Remote Monitoring

You don’t need new cameras—you just need to connect smarter. Here’s how we help WA businesses upgrade their protection:

  1. System Review & Optimisation
    We assess your current Avigilon setup—camera placement, analytics configuration, storage, and access.
  2. Monitoring Integration
    We connect your system to our 24/7 Grade A control room—where trained operators receive alerts and respond in real time.
  3. Virtual Patrol Scheduling
    Need site checks overnight or during downtime? We can conduct remote patrols at scheduled intervals using your existing feeds.
  4. Live Intervention Capabilities
    We can enable live audio warnings through Avigilon’s integration with PA systems or speakers—stopping intruders before damage occurs.

 

Fun Fact: Avigilon + Remote Monitoring = Better ROI

• Avigilon analytics reduce operator fatigue by up to 70%
• Monitored systems respond faster than most on-site guards
