Buyer’s GuideIomega Video Surveillance Solutions
If you selected mostly No. 1 in Steps One through Four, you are most compatible with Iomega’s Simple Storage Target. Simple Surveillance Storage Target: Capacity where you need it mostIf you’re a large company or distributed enterprise with an existing Video Management System (VMS), you’re probably
fi nding that it’s getting harder to keep up with never-ending storage demands caused by increasing regulatory and data
retention requirements.
With its ability to support any number of IP cameras and VMS applications, Iomega®’s StorCenter™ serves as an ideal
Surveillance Storage Target, delivering up to 36 TBs of scalable, localized iSCSI storage with advanced data protection.
And, the ease with which the StorCenter can be added into existing environments makes it a logical choice for anyone
tired of running out of storage capacity.
If you selected mostly No. 2 in Steps One through Four, and are a small franchise or business with less than 10 locations, you are most compatible with Iomega’s Integrated Video Management Solution.
Integrated Video Management System: An all-in-one platform with all the functionality you need For franchisees and companies with up to 10 branch or remote locations, Iomega’s Integrated Video Management System
(IVMS) provides the best of both worlds in smart storage—thanks to the StorCenter ix and px Series seamlessly integrating
with both leading video management software and IP cameras. For companies just getting started with video surveillance,
this all-in-one platform is affordable, fl exible and easy to deploy.
Iomega takes the guesswork out of video surveillance for both novices and long-term security experts by offering a fully
integrated solution with robust capacity and compatibility. Equally compelling is how easily the StorCenter works with major
IP camera manufacturers, including Axis, Panasonic, Mobotix and Bosch. Additionally, major VMS applications, such as the
SoleraTec Phoenix RSM and MindTree SecureMind, are completely interoperable with the EMC® LifeLine operating system to
streamline recording, management and access of all video residing on the StorCenter.
With Iomega’s IVMS, you can start small with a few cameras and several terabytes of storage and then scale rapidly and easily
to support as many as 24 cameras per site and up to 36 TBs in a single array. When it comes to fl exibility, functionality and
affordability, the Iomega IVMS strikes all the right chords.
If you selected mostly Nos. 2 or 3 in Steps One through Four and are a small business with limited IT staff or a distributed enterprise with more than 10 locations, you are most compatible with Iomega’s Hosted Video Surveillance SolutionHosted Video Surveillance Solution: Blending world-class storage with the cloud If you’re a large, distributed enterprise or fast-growing SMB seeking an effi cient, economical entry into the world of
video surveillance, then consider Iomega’s Hosted Video Surveillance Solution (HVSS), which blends the best of proven
cloud storage technology with all the inherent benefi ts of the StorCenter NAS. Storefronts, bank branches and franchisees
without dedicated IT resources will fi nd Iomega’s hosted solution compelling because it eliminates the need for onsite
servers, operating systems and VMS application—and a large staff to operate them.
Keeping an eye on your physical assets is a lot easier and more affordable with Iomega’s hosted video surveillance solution,
which costs a fraction of traditional digital video recorder/network video recorder implementations. Compatible with industry-
leading Axis IP cameras and the Axis Video Hosting system, this solution is ideally suited for recording high-defi nition video
locally while storing low-resolution video data in the cloud.
If you have broadband networking capabilities and a penchant for cloud-based applications and hosted solution-as-a-service
models, then Iomega’s Hosted Video Surveillance Solution could be a perfect fi t for your environment.
