Saagar Govil, CEO of Vicon Industries, Inc., delves into what makes the company successful.

Can you tell me about the products that Vicon provides?

Vicon is an AI-based security technology company that has been a global leader, delivering innovation and value in advanced security and surveillance technology for many years. Our end-to-end solutions are deployed worldwide to safeguard businesses, schools, municipalities, hospitals and cities, in an effort to keep our customers and their assets protected.

We specialize in engineering complete security solutions that simplify deployment, operation and ongoing maintenance. Vicon is a total solutions provider, offering our customers centralized security management with Valerus VMS, a robust line of intelligent cameras, VAX integrated access control solutions, license plate recognition (LPR) and servers.

Our Valerus VMS has full integration and access control in one single interface allowing our end user to experience a streamlined, efficient workflow. Valerus allows for expedited installation and setup with auto discovery and configuration tools, automatic secure and scheduled archiving to the cloud and the ability to stream mobile video directly to the VMS. 

Vicon recently released an enhanced lineup of Roughneck cameras with AI-based analytics along with our latest VMS release — Valerus 23.1, delivering powerful object classification, tracking, recording and forensic searching.

Does Vicon have any recent success stories that you can share?

A border protection customer in Texas recently chose Vicon to develop its security technology system. With our software solution currently deployed at the site, the new expansion order builds on the customer’s state-of-the-art video surveillance security capabilities with the addition of award-winning Roughneck cameras and servers.

Increasing modernization of the current security infrastructure is accelerating the growth of the border security market. With the rise of geopolitical instabilities and an increase in threat assessments, countries around the world are employing advanced security systems on their borders.

What makes Vicon stand out in the market?

At Vicon, we keep our customer in the forefront of everything we do. We strive every day to provide world-class services, support and solutions for our customers, helping them to be successful.

Vicon simplifies purchasing and support by being a single-source supplier. Our open platform works with other open security platforms, cameras and hardware, allowing our customers the ability to leverage existing investments with our solutions. With Vicon there are no hidden costs when it comes to deployment or maintenance, allowing our customer to achieve a lower total cost of ownership (TCO).

With the recent unification of our domestic and global support teams, we can accommodate and ensure our customers get the support they need, regardless of when or where they are in the world. In a vast sea of security surveillance providers, we are different because we do more than sell security solutions, we build relationships and work with our customers to achieve success.

The Vicon team is here for you and we are ready to hear about your next project. Let us connect with you to understand your security challenges or needs, so we can find the right solution for your application.

Experience success. Experience the difference. Experience Vicon.
