IDIS, South Korea’s largest in-country surveillance manufacturer, is proud to launch its newest educational eBook – ‘Why Total Cost of Ownership Matters More Than Ever.’

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is a well-known concept across many sectors in the video security industry: a way for customers to gain the most value by taking account of the total costs of any system across its entire lifecycle. IDIS is proud to be one of the first video tech vendors to shed light on the importance of TCO with its eBook in 2019.

The proliferation of AI-powered analytics has further increased the value of video solutions by increasing operational efficiency and business intelligence. The market has also become more crowded with vendors referring to TCO in varying ways, often leaving end-users and systems integrators confused by different definitions and discouraging them from asking the right questions to help them accurately assess the value of the video surveillance and analytics solutions.

They are both crucial metrics for systems integrators, heads of security, facilities teams, and loss prevention managers looking to build solid and compelling business cases for investing in IP video technology.
