Sept. 14, 2016
Vertical market-specific solutions, specialty products support company's move into the enterprise space

ORLANDO, Fla.—September, 13, 2016—Hikvision USA Inc., the North American leader in innovative, award-winning video surveillance products and solutions, known for its success in the SMB market, is showcasing its video surveillance solutions and services for the enterprise market at ASIS 2016.
 
“Visitors to the Hikvision booth can see how we’re supporting our move to the enterprise market with sophisticated products, a dealer program that’s designed to work for all of our integrator partners, and how we’re providing real leadership in the industry on issues like cybersecurity,” said Jeffrey He, president of Hikvision USA and Hikvision Canada.
 
Sam Belbina, vice president, enterprise sales Hikvision USA said, “Over the past two years, we’ve built a national enterprise solutions team that provides real value to our integrator partners. I’m talking about a highly experienced network of sales, engineering and technical support professionals who know their local markets. These are local engineers who are ready to come and help integrators with their pre- and post sales, as well as operational training and support. Our goal is to become their trusted partner.” 
 
Belbina noted that Hikvision is also working closely with the A&E community, distributors, as well as technology partners.
 
Bob Germain, Hikvision director of product management said, “To compete in the enterprise space, you have to have a broad product range, and solutions that are tailored to vertical markets like education, retail and critical infrastructure. And those products must also meet stringent security requirements, and work in all weather and all lighting conditions.”
 
Germain said that systems integrators want to know “how Hikvision’s specialty products—the dual sensor thermal cameras, upright PTZs, PanoVu, and the stainless steel cameras among others—complement our vertical market solutions and how the product team and Sam [Belbina’s] enterprise team is ready to work with integrators to meet their needs and their customers’ needs,” Germain said.
