San Mateo, CA, Feb. 15, 2023 — Verkada, leader in cloud-managed enterprise building security and management, today announced a range of updates that expand the reach of the Verkada platform.
"Each of our products is intuitive and powerful in its own right – but connected together on the Command platform, they provide best-in-class capabilities to protect people and places," said Brandon Davito, VP of Product. "All of the new products and features we're introducing today – from Verkada Intercom and our new talkdown speaker to our enhanced Command interface – work together to empower our customers to not only keep their organizations safer, but also to transform the way they operate."
Law enforcement resources are stretched thin, so it's not always possible for police to arrive in time when an alarm is triggered – making deterrence measures critical to stopping intruders before they can do damage.
This is why Verkada introduced the new Horn Speaker that allows organizations to talk down to intruders directly from a camera feed in Verkada's Command dashboard or mobile app. With the addition of an Alarms License, organizations can also have professional monitoring agents talk down to intruders, or configure a pre-recorded message to play as an automated response.
