Comprehensive review of video surveillance services

In the history of mankind, fiction often precedes reality. A clear example is the cult novel 1984 , which in 1949 already presented a reality in which the world was monitored and controlled through cameras and other monitoring and control mechanisms.

Now, reality has long since surpassed fiction: video surveillance has evolved significantly in recent years, becoming a fundamental element for security in both commercial and residential environments, to being essential for the control of public areas; not in vain, video surveillance is the main tool of states to control not only crime, but also to regulate traffic, monitor hygiene and, ultimately, organize the city in an intelligent way.

Although there are no exact figures for the number of active video surveillance cameras in the world by 2024, a 2022 study showed that in China alone, there are more than 540 million surveillance cameras - the Asian country concentrates more than 50% of the video surveillance cameras worldwide.

In this post, we will conduct a comprehensive analysis of the current state of video surveillance services, as well as explore the trends that are shaping the future of this industry.

Security camera companies

The leading companies in the security camera market play a crucial role in defining the standards of quality, innovation and reliability in this industry, particularly in Mexico, a country where trust is a key factor in matters as delicate and decisive as security.

If you haven't already, we invite you to read this article to get a comparative perspective on ADT, Prosegur, Securitas and other widely established security companies.

A major problem with traditional security camera companies is linked to their cost and contract conditions: the market norm is to offer expensive and complex contracts, which thanks to complex fine print and an advanced payment retention system, make it really difficult to break them when the user wants to.

This issue generated a huge number of dissatisfied users who are looking for more economical, transparent, simple and accessible solutions such as those offered by cuid, which also provides complete video surveillance packages and devices at unique prices on the market, starting at only 449 MXN per month.

Home security camera system

The home security camera systems market is undergoing rapid evolution driven by home security innovations and emerging smart home technology.

From smart surveillance systems to integration with connected home devices, the options for protecting our homes are constantly expanding. Therefore, before hiring your video surveillance service, consider whether the cameras and sensors you are going to purchase can be integrated into a centralized app and also with your smart home system.

Clear up any doubts before making any investment in your security!

Currently, there are more than 5,400 security companies registered in Mexico . Some offer advanced defense systems for large companies, while others, with just a car and a few motorcycles, boast of providing "comprehensive protection" without actually having the resources and technology to protect us proactively. Therefore, contacting their sales team and asking for a detailed, personalized solution, without unnecessary extra expenses or equipment, is the first thing you should do when you decide to hire your video surveillance service.
