3xLOGIC, Inc., a globally renowned provider of integrated, intelligent security solutions, has announced the successful installation of the 3xLOGIC VIGIL CLOUD solution for this growing company.

Chariot Automotive Group sells new and pre-owned vehicles at five locations in north-central Indiana, USA, along with quality parts and exceptional customer service. A nearly perfect 5.0 rating on Google underscores the fact that Chariot Automotive Group prides itself on delivering a positive customer experience, through ethical and dependable vehicle sales and service.

Unique security needs of each location

Any new security solution had to meet Chariot Automotive’s demands for system ease of use and operational efficiency

Each of Chariot Automotive’s five locations has unique security needs. Physical space and up-front investment budget are limited, so the company was looking for a creative solution for their corporate office and four dealerships. Any new security solution had to meet Chariot Automotive’s demands for system ease of use and operational efficiency.

In addition to our four dealerships, we needed a smaller-scale solution that would still deliver the performance demanded for our corporate headquarters,” said Nicholas Cass, Chariot Automotive Group’s IT Manager.

Chariot Automotive Group - ITech Digital partnership

The company worked with Indianapolis-based ITech Digital to identify a solution that would meet the entire organisation’s security requirements in the desired installation timeline.

Natalie Himmel, the National Account Executive for ITech Digital, worked with Chariot Automotive Group to perform a thorough end user needs investigation and the team determined that 3xLOGIC’s innovative, scalable VIGIL CLOUD solution was a perfect fit.

VIGIL CLOUD solution

With the VIGIL CLOUD solution, Chariot Automotive has access to all the features of 3xLOGIC’s award-winning VIGIL Video Management Software (VIGIL VMS), along with the power, scalability, and ease of use that are hallmarks of cloud-based solutions.

After full system rollout, Chariot Automotive Group now has multiple IP megapixel (MP) cameras focused on the crucial entry points at each location, recording high-resolution motion video.

Video footage stored in the ultra-secure Cloud

Footage is stored and managed in the ultra-secure Cloud and remote viewing is accessed through the customer web portal, and the super sleek VIGIL CLOUD app.

The VIGIL CLOUD solution does not require an on-site NVR (network video recorder), bridge, gateway, or any other hardware. This ‘plug and play’ solution allows for fast installation and it will evolve as the business’ needs grow and change.

Easy sharing of video information with team members

VIGIL CLOUD enabled us to avoid having any equipment onsite, so we avoided upfront expenditures"

Chariot Automotive Group’s IT Manager, Nicholas Cass said “VIGIL CLOUD enabled us to avoid having any equipment onsite, so we avoided upfront expenditures and ongoing updates and server maintenance.

In addition to cost and space savings, by not needing to invest in on-site recording and management equipment, Chariot Automotive can now quickly and easily share video information and insights with team members and other stakeholders.

High-quality IP cameras

High-quality IP cameras deliver superior images, in order to provide instant access to live and recorded video from anywhere and at any time. Furthermore, VIGIL CLOUD’s Case Management feature empowers the company’s system administrators to locate, organise, store, annotate, and share video clips faster than ever, with a user-friendly interface.

Nicholas Cass adds, “Reviewing video remotely through the cloud has been extremely helpful and assigning user-based roles and permissions is much easier with the cloud-based platform.
