Hanwha Vision has released version 6.0 of its Wisenet WAVE video management system (VMS), which gives security professionals greater control over configuring and managing their surveillance systems.
This latest version supports more intuitive user management capabilities, making scaling and customising surveillance resources to the needs of individual operations easier than ever.
WAVE VMS 6.0 highlights
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.
Similar to previous WAVE VMS releases, all features are supported across the platform's mobile, desktop, and server versions using any operating system. WAVE Sync is Hanwha Vision’s cloud-based service that allows users to access, view, share, and manage their WAVE VMS systems remotely from a Web browser.
24/7 transparent visibility
“Organisations need greater flexibility in how they configure and operate their surveillance system, including their choice of a VMS model,” said 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 centralised, 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.”
