Milestone Systems, the open platform company in networked video management software (VMS), has released a new version of the XProtect VMS product suite for partners and customers. The announcement for the EMEA market was held at Intersec in Dubai on January 17th.

XProtect 2016 empowers control room operators in high security installations to proactively respond to incidents. This advanced video wall is a collaborative canvas, enabling them to collectively assess a situation. They can share alarms, images, maps and bookmarks, in addition to live video using XProtect Smart Wall 2016. Organizations are also in greater control of their surveillance investment, as XProtect 2016 boasts a number of features designed to reduce the overall cost of ownership.

The user benefits:

An extended system monitor gives real-time overview of system status to enable proactive service. New functions let users move devices between servers for seamless system expansions.
     
  • Optimized Incident Handling –Rich Smart Wall content from alarms, images, bookmarks, maps and more improve incident response time and operational focus.  XProtect 2016 is introducing Push Notification that notifies a remote user of an alarm (including instructions and video).
