“Goldeneye were at the forefront in their field in terms of technology and utilising that technology to give the best monitoring service for Regus’s surveillance problems.

The Mobotix cameras came with Goldeneye’s 3 year guarantee and no routine maintenance requirements keeping our running costs down. The cameras can be monitored and programmed off site so any failure can be swiftly detected and dealt with, and where required, replaced one for one using Goldeneye’s ‘hot swap’ service. The installations went extremely well with all my centre teams commenting on the professionalism of the install teams and how they coped with working around the hustle and bustle of a busy Regus Centre.

We have been able to tailor and refine the system since the initial fit out to give us the cover that we require and integrate some of our existing security systems into the new monitoring package. This I envisage will be a constant evolution as Regus’s demands change and this system is ideal for this, as almost everything can be done remotely thereby keeping site visits and hence costs down.”
Russ Forsdick, M & E Manager for Regus

Paul Driver, Managing Director of Goldeneye says “Regus were seeking to update their ageing analogue CCTV systems which had become expensive to run and maintain. We were able to demonstrate that the high quality and reliability of the Mobotix network IP cameras would meet their quality requirements, with minimal on going maintenance requirements and low long term cost of ownership. We were also able to demonstrate that the connectivity options on the Mobotix cameras would also enable integration with existing security systems to provide enhanced levels of security and give added value.

He adds “It was important that during the installation phase, as we would be working in the offices of many different Regus clients, that we minimise the disruption to their the day to day operations. The minimal infrastructure requirements of Mobotix IP cameras meant that we were able to achieve this and complete the roll out quickly, within the anticipated time scales and without compalint of any nature from Regus clients.
