What do you like best about Avigilon Unity?

I like that I can customize my own layout of how I want to view cameras and it will save it so its the same when I log back in the next day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Avigilon Unity?

Haven't found a way to rotate camera views within a tab to the large view. It only allows the camera I select for that view to be there. Would love to have multiple cameras rotating to a large tile from a smaller one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Avigilon Unity?

Avigilon ACM offers much more functionality than the solution it replaced and is better designed to accommodate our organizational needs. It will eventually allow us to retire other solutions as well once those functions are duplicated within the tool, saving us money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Avigilon Unity?

Our implementation required us to install new card readers outside our buildings and rooms, which is understandable. However, we had issues procuring the correct ID badges for our environment and it took several calls with the vendor before our issues were understood and resolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Avigilon Unity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our Facilities Management team uses Avigilon ACM to control door/building access and print ID cards for visitors, employees and students. The new systems does everything more efficiently than the one it replaced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Avigilon Unity?

Avigilon Is a really great application to add security cameras that would be used in a commercial environment. It is really easy to setup and to operate. the Avigilon has all the tools needed on their website to complete configurations and setups for the cameras and instructions on how to add the cameras to the viewer software. Avigilon makes some really outstanding cameras for out doors in high resolution and come with wipers on the camera. the bullet cameras are awesome as well. you can create open views for recording or just chose certain areas you want to trigger. there is also masking if you do not want a certain area recorded or viewed. Once you get the cameras on the network just add them to the viewer and you are all set. Once you create an account with Avigilon you can download all the software needed to setup your camera. with the PTZ Cameras you can view 360 degrees in the warehouse or outside. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Avigilon Unity?

Cameras are expensive and only last about 4-5 years before needing replacement. Cameras are a little trick to get on the network.You must in stall their software to setup the cameras and to setup the hostnames and IP aadressed. can be alittle tricky if you dont have account which you must create Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Avigilon Unity:

Easy of use once in place only need to load the viewer to see cameras. very easy to manage cameras Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Avigilon Unity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Recommendations to others considering Avigilon Unity:

Consider this product's all-in-one capability for security and access. Avigilon's bundles of services are incredibly helpful on a day-to-day basis, and an all-in-one option for cameras and ID cards is fantastic! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Avigilon Unity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Avigilon's Access Control Manager has allowed my company to restrict access to specific buildings while also monitoring all entrances and exits with cameras. This system has provided us additional security and recorded video footage of unauthorized entry to areas. (And has led to two separate thefts of bicycles being solved!)

For access restriction, our Staff ID cards have become much more efficient, as it is incredibly easy to reprogram them as necessary. Terminations can happen immediately and require little/no lead time. Changes are nearly instant and the system doesn't take much time to refresh. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Avigilon Unity?

Our company has several different locations. Avigilon allows you to manage all your locations from one centralized location. This makes things so much easier to troubleshoot and manage. We also really benefit from the synchronization to active directory. It really cuts down on the time spent managing use accounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Avigilon Unity?

We have a lot of cameras at all of our locations running on the same server. In order to record more than 2 weeks of footage, we would have to buy more storage and storage is very expensive. It would be nice to be able to have more than 2 weeks without having to purchase a lot more storage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Avigilon Unity solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are able to track safety incidents and theft incidents with the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
