Verkada announces the addition of two new, plug-and-play cameras to its existing product line: the D40 mini dome and the D80 fisheye camera. Like the rest of the company’s cameras, these added form factors send motion-triggered video metadata to the Cloud and store up to 120 days of retained footage on-board the device.
Verkada says this “hybrid-Cloud” approach solves a series of deep-rooted problems in the video security space — spanning across infrastructure limitations, to hidden management overhead such as the cost of hardware maintenance over time.
Verkada says its software-driven system has been adopted by over 400 customers across all verticals — adding an average of 14 new customers per week.
“The fact that Verkada has seen the growth it has in just over a year’ of operations is impressive, but not unexpected. The junction of trends in this market — IoT security, hardware, AI and the increased need for security in specific markets — makes this the right team, at the right time.
