Live Remote Monitoring vs. Unmonitored Static CCTV
When video footage is left unattended without professional monitoring, you have to take action after an incident has occurred. Very often, the damage has already been done.
Live CCTV Monitoring, which is remotely monitored in real time, will drastically reduce the risk, threat, and criminal activity. This is active crime prevention, and our team of highly skilled personnel will take immediate action 24/7 when there is a threat or emergency.
Improve Operator Efficiency & Morale
Deep learning video analytics only forwards ‘true’ alarms to your operators, empowering them to make better decisions in response to alarms, without the burden of excessive false alarms.
- Operators only receive ‘true’ alarms to review
- Reduce the likelihood of operator fatigue
- Improve staff morale by reducing alarm volumes
Respond Quicker to Genuine Security Threats
With 90% fewer false alarms being sent to your monitoring station, operators will have more time to focus on ‘true’ alarm verification and a quicker response to genuine threats.
- Reduce average response times
- Offer more competitive SLAs to customers
- Improve overall loss prevention standards

Key Benefits of PTI Remote CCTV Monitoring
Round-The-Clock Monitoring
Unlike humans, cameras don’t get tired or fatigued and can record footage throughout the day. So, whether in broad daylight or at night, CCTV cameras placed on the inside and outside of a commercial establishment can keep an eye on everything that’s going on.
Security professionals typically work in coordinated shifts at the remote monitoring station, which results in more efficient and effective supervision.
Increased Security Across All Access Points
CCTV cameras are generally installed along the perimeter of a building or complex, and they are meant to record everything that goes on in and around all the potential entry and exit points. Installing visible cameras at these points plays a huge part in discouraging individuals and groups from committing criminal acts.
Pan, Tilt, and Zoom (PTZ) Capabilities
PTZ cameras have become one of the most popular types of CCTV cameras in recent times due to panning, tilting, and zooming capabilities.
Thanks to these features, a single camera can be used to cover a large area, greatly reducing security costs for businesses.
High Definition (HD) Videos
Modern-day CCTV cameras have the capability to capture videos in HD, which ensures clear images that can be zoomed without significant pixelation, which can often be the difference between identifying potential criminals and not being able to identify them due to poor image quality.
Immediate Response
Even the most stringent security measures may not be enough to stop desperate people from carrying out criminal activities. However, remote surveillance makes timely intervention possible.
As soon as a threat is detected, the security professionals in the remote monitoring station can contact law enforcement authorities to catch the perpetrators red-handed.
Audio Challenge
There is a difference between potential crime and one that has already been committed. By synchronizing with a business’s on-site audio systems, remote surveillance agencies can issue warnings to potential perpetrators.
On many occasions, such warnings are enough to prevent crimes. However, if they are not enough, stricter action can be taken by making swift contact with law enforcement authorities.
Reduced Security Costs
Installing ten cameras on the premises of a business is better than employing ten security guards from a price perspective.
While the initial investments on the cameras would be significant, businesses don’t have to pay monthly salaries that they would have to if human security guards were employed.
Enhanced Employee Performance
Apart from reducing the risks of crime and disasters, remote surveillance systems also put employees under pressure to perform better.
Indoor surveillance can help owners of commercial establishments identify employees whose performance is consistently poor. The risks of an employee stealing from a business or damaging business property are also greatly reduced.
Customer Trust
A business with a surveillance system is more likely to earn the trust of its customers than a similar business without any surveillance.
As soon as customers spot CCTVs in place, they feel comforted. The presence of remote surveillance systems can also prevent crimes such as shoplifting.
Effective Alarms
Before video surveillance measures became so advanced, numerous businesses installed alarm systems that were meant to go off if unusual sounds were detected.
However, such alarm systems are not always effective, as they tend to ring out loudly even if they detect noise generated by the wind. Such false positives can make it incredibly frustrating for security professionals to do their work.
