Aimetis VMS Brand Brought Under Parent Senstar’s Name
The leader in perimeter intrusion detection systems acquired the video management systems provider in April 2016.
DALLAS – At ASIS 2017 Senstar announces the beginning of a transition period to bring Aimetis under the Senstar brand. The leader in perimeter intrusion detection systems (PIDS) acquired video management systems provider Aimetis in April 2016. Since then the two companies have worked in parallel to continue to provide market-leading PIDS and VMS solutions, but in the coming months Senstar and Aimetis will become one company.
“Bringing together the PIDS expertise of Senstar with the VMS and analytics knowledge of Aimetis enables us to offer an unrivaled range of innovative security solutions and world-class support,” says Senstar President Brian Rich. “Throughout the transition period we are committed to ensuring as little disruption as possible to our business. Our customers and partners can expect the same accessible, responsive and flexible sales and support they have always relied on, and to be well-informed regarding any changes that may affect them.”
According to a company release, the combination of PIDS and VMS addresses a growing trend in the security industry to reduce complexity by enabling customers and partners to source comprehensive security solutions from a single provider, resulting in reduced costs and greater accountability.
The firm also introduced the integration of its Network Manager alarm reporting system and Symphony VMS (formerly Aimetis). Network Manager is a software gateway that allows communication with a wide array of Senstar sensors, including FlexZone, FiberPatrol, OmniTrax and UltraWave. The integration enables Symphony to receive the full range of alarm and status information from Senstar sensors via an IP connection. For each sensor alarm the full range of Symphony’s security responses can be initiated, including commanding camera actions and providing visual and audio alerts.
Show attendees interested in learning more about the transition and integration, and checking out Senstar’s PIDS and VMS products and more can visit ASIS 2017 Booth 4296.
