CheckMyCCTV Video Surveillance System Health and Operation Monitoring Software to be Offered by IPX360 Solutions Inc

 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Montreal, Canada - October 25, 2012 - B2B electronic security product provider, IPX360 Solutions Inc. has signed an agreement with UK-based CheckMySystems Ltd. - the video surveillance health and operation monitoring software specialist - to act as its agent for 'CheckMyCCTV' in the North American market.

The CheckMyCCTV application, to be offered by IPX360 Solutions Inc. across the US and Canada, is designed to automatically identify and report specific video surveillance system faults as soon as they are detected. Typical issues that can be flagged-up by CheckMyCCTV include: camera failures, hard disk failures, recording issues, time accuracy problems, and network connection failures. Early detection helps to ensure that problems are resolved before they can impact, negatively, on system performance.

Following the deal announced today with CheckMySystems Ltd., IPX360 Solutions Inc. is planning to preview CheckMyCCTV's advanced capabilities in a series of one-to-one meetings with security distributors and monitoring station representatives at the Security Canada Expo taking place this week in Toronto, Canada. The 'soft launch' of CheckMyCCTV is to be followed by the 'official' North American unveiling of the video surveillance health check software on IPX360 Solution's booth (219) during the forthcoming SecureTech event (Ottawa - October 30, 31).

Moving ahead, IPX360 Solutions sees tremendous potential in targeting CheckMyCCTV at security distributors and owners of large-scale and multiple sites. Central stations are another focus, where interest has already been expressed in CheckMyCCTV by providers, given its capacity to enhance the efficiency of their operations and, crucially, the system status information that can be provided to customers.

Regis Glorieux, President of IPX360 Solutions Inc.,explains what attracted him to the CheckMyCCTV solution: "In my view there is a real need for a new approach to checking on video surveillance systems in the US and Canada. When working with, and for distributors, I regularly came across recorders that were simply not working and may have been out of action for weeks or even longer. I am certainly not alone in this. Often the first time the customer realised anything was amiss was when there was an incident and they couldn't retrieve the video.

"With CheckMyCCTV in place these problems are picked-up automatically, and highlighted by an on-screen warning at a monitoring station or even via a smart phone 'app', so no one needs to be left in the dark. Another factor which is very appealing, and differentiates CheckMyCCTV from less capable solutions, is the ability of the software to work with multiple video surveillance system brands. Traditionally, such solutions have tended to be very much manufacturer specific. This isn't very practical for customers who want to avoid the headache of trying to run four or five pieces of software simultaneously. Now with CheckMyCCTV they can access a single, convenient interface for all important status checking."

Commented Darren Rewston, Founder and Managing Director of CheckMySystems Ltd: "We are very excited to be working with IPX360 Solutions Inc. in our efforts to bring CheckMyCCTV to a new audience in North America. The experience we have had to date in the UK, working with monitoring stations, large retailers and other users, shows that CheckMyCCTV can make a positive difference to fault finding and how the maintenance of video surveillance systems is managed. We expect that customers in the US and Canada will soon appreciate these practical benefits for themselves.

"At CheckMySystems we realise that there can be no room for complacency where the well being of video surveillance systems is concerned. The need to implement effective checks was underlined in a snapshot survey we conducted of 300 sites across the UK. Before CheckMyCCTV was implemented a worrying 75% of sites had one or more issues affecting the operational performance of the CCTV system, ranging from daylight saving time not being updated, to camera failures, recording problems, and hard disk issues."

CheckMyCCTV is currently compatible with over 25 video surveillance system brands and OEMs, including: Samsung, Costar, HikVision, American Dynamics, Digimerge, Dedicated Micros, Xtralis, and Dahua, with more being added to this list all the time.
