The ambiance of a modern retail store is set to floor the customers the moment they walk in. However, behind the numerous aisles filled with gleaming merchandise lies a herculean effort of maintaining this facade. With the growth of online retail, every store is struggling to maintain their profit margin, and they can no longer risk a dip in their inventory. Meanwhile, it is surprising to note that the inventory loss incurred by the U.S. retailers from employee theft, vendor fraud, and administration errors accounted to a whopping $49.60 billion last year. In this scenario, maintaining the security of store assets, employees, and store visitors is paramount for the retailers. This is where MobentIT—a pioneer in retail security—places its biggest bet.
MobentIT has formulated a catalog of efficient security solutions at a competitive price point that helps clients to fortify their stores. For instance, their innovative solution for monitoring and controlling activities in stores can prevent unauthorized access to materials, valuable equipment, and private data. Routine surveillance keeps a tab on inappropriate behavior within the premises—an important requirement for large stores, where manual surveillance is practically impossible.
MobentIT's integrated solution also unifies video surveillance, access control, and license plate recognition. With an intuitive one-click access to information, the solution’s video analytics component cuts down on the investigation time for the retailers as it provides exception reports immediately.
