Public Safety Solution by AxxonSoft Secures Hungary’s Largest Office Building

Client

The joint headquarters of Telekom (the biggest telecommunications service provider in Hungary) and T-Systems (the largest system integrator company in Hungary) was delivered in 2018. It is the largest and one of the most modern offices in the country. About 100,000 square meters provide jobs for nearly 4,500 employees. The headquarters area covers nine office floors and includes a 2,000-square-meter communal garden, a rooftop fitness and wellness center, two restaurants with 350 and 150 seats, two quality cafes, and a conference room with a capacity of 300 people. The three-storey underground garage belonging to the office building has capacity of 1,350 cars, 50 motorcycles, and 329 bicycles and includes 50 electric car charging stations and a car wash. There are 27 lifts in the building.

Challenges

The building was brand new, so this was a green-field project. The challenge for the security system was to be future-proof public safety solution with integrated analytics, so that the users of the system could search for recorded incidents easily, intuitively, and very fast. One of the essential requirements was that the system should be compatible with as many as possible camera manufacturers and camera types. In particular, the client planned to integrate Axis cameras from their newest product line, and the system had to support them. It was also demanded that generation of metadata essential for quick searches should not use huge amount of resources on the server side.

During the decision-making process, the client decided between the Axxon One VMS by AxxonSoft and a product from one of the top-tier global VMS developers.  Axxon One VMS was ultimately chosen because of its Onboard Tracker tool, the linearity of camera license pricing and overall lower camera license price, free technical support, and a more user-friendly GUI.
