We like being able to keep our students and families safe and secure. Using a camera system has been a way to ensure that we are a safe place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have not had something monumental that we disliked. We were able to work through any times with lack of clarity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The system is so easy to work with, from installing and adding devices to network, to navigating the command interface and finding specific footage. Switching to Verkada has been a great decision. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Considering we are relatively new to the Verkada universe, we haven't found anything so far that we dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Camera footage is great, the app is easy to use and download from. The organization settings for all our cameras on the app is nice and makes permissions settings easier. Sound quality on the cameras is good, too. They've been good to replace cameras that had weather damage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We had a few cameras that had a mic problem, but Verkada replaced all of them for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Verkada is a security camera cloud platform that is easily accessible from browser or app.

The web interface is intuitive and easy to navigate, with a configurable dashboard for your often used options.

Cameras can be grouped and controlled by policy if that is what is desired. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

After thoroughly describing an intended use case to a new sales representative, a subpar camera was sent that was not up to handling the distance required. They have a model that easily would have accomplished the job, but they did not send it for some reason. When a request was made for the appropriate camera, there was a delay of three weeks for a demo unit. The delay was not because one was not available, but because our rep could not convince someone to send one out to us. Not sure what the problem was, but after three weeks we moved on to another vendor. Shortly after we switched, the rep came up with a camera and then tried to guilt me because we didn't want it anymore.

I am sure this was an isolated incident, but annoying nonetheless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pretty easy to set up the system. Had to do some firewall configs but overall nothing out of the ordinary. Once installed the cameras come.on seamlessly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kind of pricy. As I understand if you do not pay for you license renewal your cameras basically just don't work anymore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Verkada offers a comprehensive suite of technology at a good price and backs it up with great service. We use their cameras, access control and guest management system. We are very happy with all of them. They have a range of cameras for every application. The cloud storage is convenient and inexpensive. The interface is simple and easy to use. Of note is the fisheye camera. It's almost like magic. It covers a 180-degree range in every direction and can zoom in on a target like it's pointed directly at it. While continuing to record the entire field of vision the whole time. The access control works flawlessly and our employees love being able to use the phone app to open gates and doors instead of their badges. We are in the process of replacing our entire system of access control and cameras with Verkada equipment because it's simply a better solution.

The service is also top-notch. Our sales rep Pierre is super-responsive and easy to work with. We've never had a problem with sales or support. When we wanted our cabling contractor to get Verkada-certified for installing the Verkada equipment, Pierre made it happen.

And finally, when it seems everyone is having supply chain issues, Verkada delivers. For us to get the equipment any faster, they'd have to ship it before we ordered it!

Highly recommend Verkada solutions across the board. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I honestly don't have any negatives on Verkada. When we started using Verkakda equipment we had a little confusion about our licensing but Verkada made sure everything worked and they resolved the licensing issue quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
