Latin America. For several years, these two technology companies have been strengthening ties to stay at the forefront of a market that demands high quality products at a fair and competitive price.
Hanwha Techwin and OnSSI integrate their highest performing and most versatile products on the market in pursuit of a unique solution for each user. Proof of this are the Hanwha Wisenet IP cameras and the Ocularis video management system (VMS) from OnSSI. Working closely to ensure seamless compatibility, Hanwha and OnSSI provide their respective integrators and customers with the best video surveillance capabilities and cost efficiency.
Both companies offer customers a unique value proposition both individually and collectively. Hanwha features a strong and reliable camera, plus advanced imaging technologies, while OnSSI offers an enterprise-grade VMS solution with a unique feature set, which will help integrators win more business.
On the other hand, the Ocularis recorder is one of the most efficient in the industry, with unlimited scalability and future-proof technology, improving the overall Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). The Hanwha Smart Server enables integrators to deploy the latest Hanwha cameras as soon as they are available. OnSSI Integrator can deploy software patches automatically overnight without the need to go from server to server, remote access, etc. This makes it possible to drastically reduce the cost of labor required.
This collaborative effort has had and will continue to have a significant impact on both companies' market presence in the Latin American region.
Joint projects
OnSSI's presence extends to different countries in Latin America and the Caribbean such as Mexico, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Panama, Colombia, Brazil and Argentina. In these, the company has developed projects under the same concept promoted by Hanwha of smart cities, which is found in all types of public spaces, as well as data centers, rail and metro systems, offices, campuses and many more. Both firms are now focused on enterprise systems.
For Lorena Bouwer, Marketing Manager for Latin America, this integration that goes back several years of joint work is reflected in "products with unique characteristics and low cost for the client, which in turn is successful for the distributors themselves".
This collaboration allows end users in Latin America to have cameras with functions such as Input/Output (I/O), bidirectional audio and built-in analysis, with which the Ocularis system is fully compatible.
For its part, integrators across the continent are given the opportunity to expand participation and profitability in the core of the physical security market, with new business opportunities.
