Alibi Security Cloud Success Stories Sights Sounds and Speed

July 9th, 2020



The owners of a popular West Virginia mechanic shop needed to protect their business with high-resolution video, advanced analytics, and secure storage. Between expensive unattended vehicles and a home-based business, they needed more than the average 24/7 recording system. That’s where Alibi’s Cloud VS solution came into play. 

The Client 

Sights, Sounds, and Speed (SS&S) is an automotive specialty company that provides GPS tracking and vehicle wraps for luxury vehicles. In the last several years, their business has benefited from steady growth in both their local community and the attention of luxurious car manufacturers, including BMW and Mercedes.   

The Challenge 

Because SS&S operates out of the owner's house, they’re presented with some unique security challenges including a high number of employees, customers, and vehicles coming and going on the owner’s personal property, and an unsupervised management office (often containing customer credit card information, and cash). The combination of high traffic customers, a high turnover of employees, and an unattended office required a security system that would provide them with high-resolution video and off-premise storage.

The Solution 

Although the owners considered several providers, they chose Alibi Cloud VS as the ideal solution for their business because of its advanced analytics, off-premise solution, and scalable features. Ten outdoor dome cameras were added, covering the auto shop, side porches, and management office where their cash was kept. They also added three additional cameras to the interior entrance and exits to ensure their most valuable assets were accounted for with continuous, 24/7 video monitoring.

The Outcome 

Since deploying their Alibi cloud cameras, management has already experienced the benefits of an off-premise surveillance system. When a trespasser enters the property, the owners are immediately alerted in real-time on their smartphone, which they can then download and send to authorities. With Cloud VS, they can grant multiple users remote access to their network, remotely accessing a centralized interface. As they transition from a single to multi-site business in the future, they can easily add more cameras and storage—providing their business now and in the future, with a flexible, cost-effective solution that’s as simple to deploy as it is scalable.  

 

What Our Customers Say

"I had the Alibi system installed several years ago. It has functioned flawlessly. The image quality is exellent both night and day and in all weather conditions. I particularly like the replay (which can be set at various speeds) and zoom functions of the system. Tech support from Crimefreeliving has been excellent. I have received quick responses to questions, and timely home visits — as when I changed IP carriers and my Alibi system needed to be reset. I have recommended Crimefreeliving to several friends."

Rich

"As a small business owner here in Chico we definitely saw the need for video surveillance. After expressing our needs and concerns Tim did an excellent job getting us set up with the set up with the appropriate equipment. He really took the time to address our concerns in a very friendly, professional and knowledgeable manner. I highly recommend Tim for all of your business and residential video surveillance needs."

Ron H., Owner/Auto Doctor

"I have to say I love having my security cameras at my home. Tim Truby did a wonderful job of installing the five cameras. He is very neat and cleaned everything up after the installation. He explained to me how to operate the monitor, my phone and IPad. However, I have had to call Tim because I'm not tech savvy and forget what he has told me. He usually just helps me over the phone and then all is well. I'm 80 years old and enjoy the comfort of knowing I have these security cameras."

Gloria

"Tim Truby designed and installed a 32 camera system for us here at the Butte County Mosquito and Vector Control District. We had received several other quotes from security system vendors, but Tim’s quote was the least expensive. Tim also installed the system quickly and has always been available when we needed him. We are very happy with our security camera system and we can highly recommend Tim Truby for all of your surveillance system needs."

D. Weseman, Butte County Mosquito and Vector Control District

Crime Free Living updated our old video system with a new 16 Channel HD Alibi Video Security System. The old system had been added onto by different installers which resulted in a cabling mess. There were cables that worked and cables that went nowhere. It was a mess. Tim sorted it all out and installed cameras that are very clear. He also installed a monitor for our cashiers to watch hidden areas, a monitor to watch the entry door, and a monitor that allows employees to watch the outside parking and gas pump area. All work was done on time and very professional! Will always recommend Tim and Crime Free Living.

S. AM PM Chico Arco Station

"I had Tim install an Alibi Video Security System at my residence and a couple business locations. The remote view option is invaluable to absentee owners or anyone who travels a lot. The clarity and quality of the cameras have allowed for viewing employee theft. The evidence provided from the HD video cameras was fantastic! Tim was professional and provided extra value from his law enforcement background."

J. Folsom Arco Station

"Tim, I want to thank you again for doing such a fantastic job on installing a wireless IP security camera system at our dream home. The extra time that you took to hide wires, and install a clean, professional system is much appreciated. I still can’t believe the clarity, quality, and ease of use of this new system. I wished that I would have met you before our original inferior system was installed by another company. Now, whether I am at home, or monitoring the system from around the world, I know that my home and family are safe and sound."

John M.

"In April of 2017, my husband and I made a phone call to Crime Free Living that turned out to be a smart and wise decision. Amazingly, in just a few hours, Tim installed four Dome Security Cameras, weatherproof enclosures, and hooked up into our home a 23" Full HD Widescreen Security Monitor. Even more than his professional expertise was the time spent with us in making sure that this system was working correctly and properly installed on our phones so that anywhere in our travels we can monitor our new home in Magalia."

Tieka and Don S.

"I have been using Crime Free Living for the last couple years ar work and at home and I really recommend this product. Tim is a very good service provider. If he can't figure it out, he's got good tech support with the system that he offers."

Gary D.

"I have known Tim for over 10 years. To date, Time with Crime Free Living has installed two separate surveillance systems for my company. With each system, Tim has listened to my needs and custom dsigned surveillance systems for my specific needs and within my budget. The equipment used is always state of the art, the workmanship is top notch, and Tim is the example of trustworthy. I would recommend him for any job."
