Eagle Eye President Ken Francis talks about the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) in a detailed comparison of true cloud video surveillance versus on-premises video surveillance systems in this article published by SecurityInformed.com. “Many many might be surprised to learn that the costs to operate and maintain video surveillance system on-premises technology is often double and sometimes even quadruple the original purchase price, particularly when IT servers are involved.”
Integrators need to be well versed in Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), when discussing video surveillance options with their customers. Business leaders are looking for the best, most economical technology that will address their security needs, and they also want to avoid being blind-sided by unplanned technology operations and service costs.
While most folks understand that the initial cost of a video surveillance system is not the same as the total cost of ownership, many might be surprised to learn that the costs to operate and maintain video surveillance system on-premises technology is often double and sometimes even quadruple the original purchase price, particularly when IT servers are involved.
