TEANECK, N.J.—Hanwha Vision has released version 6.0 of its Wisenet (WAVE VMS 6.0) video management system (VMS), giving security professionals greater control over configuring and managing their surveillance systems.
The company says this latest version supports more intuitive user management capabilities to make scaling and customizing surveillance resources to the needs of individual operations easier than ever.
“Organizations need greater flexibility in how they configure and operate their surveillance system, and that includes their choice of a VMS model,” says Troy Wideman, senior product manager, WAVE VMS & recording appliances, Hanwha Vision America. “Whether they’re managing a handful of employees at one location, or hundreds across multiple sites, they need to have centralized, 24/7 transparent visibility into every aspect of their system’s health and status, from any platform, and WAVE VMS 6.0 fits that bill perfectly.”
WAVE VMS 6.0 Loaded with New Features
Highlights of WAVE VMS 6.0 include a redesigned user management interface, enhanced Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Integration, upgraded calendars, camera linking via hotspot/teleport, the ability to add temporary users and cloud-based email. Like the previous WAVE VMS releases, the platform’s features are supported across the mobile, desktop and server versions of the platform using any operating system, as well as WAVE Sync. Hanwha Vision’s cloud-based service that allows users to remotely access, view, share, and manage their WAVE VMS systems directly from a Web browser.
