Whether you run offices, retail outlets, warehouses or factories, security quickly becomes difficult when each location is handled separately. Driving to a site just to retrieve footage, juggling different platforms, or relying on local recorders at every branch can be time-consuming, expensive, and stressful.
For multi-site businesses, the right video surveillance system isn’t just about cameras. It’s about having a centralised view of all your locations, being able to monitor footage remotely, and knowing your team can securely access exactly what they need. It’s also about scalability: adding a new site or camera should be straightforward, not another IT project.
This guide will walk you through the key considerations when choosing a CCTV system for multi-site operations, including the differences between on-premises and cloud CCTV, the importance of cybersecurity and analytics, and the benefits of Video Surveillance as a Service (VSaaS). By the end, you’ll have a clear framework for choosing a system that not only protects your sites but makes your operations smarter and easier to manage.
