EMCS extend CCTV Sentry service to non-monitored systems

Remote CCTV maintenance checking service from EMCS now available on non-monitored systems.

Long term CheckMyCCTV™ monitoring partner, EMCS, are extending their CCTV Sentry 24/7 remote maintenance checking service to include non-monitored systems.

CCTV Sentry is already included as standard with EMCS monitored CCTV connections, and customers can now add non-monitored systems, as long as there is network connectivity to the system.

Darren Rewston, Managing Director of CheckMySystems Ltd., commented “At this difficult time, where it’s not possible to attend sites to conduct maintenance visits, the CCTV Sentry service from EMCS is invaluable in ensuring that customers’ systems are working and fit for purpose, whether they are monitored or not.”

There is no setup cost, or long term contract, you simply pay for each system connected on a month by month basis.
