Recurring revenue from CCTV server sales

by Mark Rowe

Video Management Servers Company, providers of CCTV servers, offers MOSS, a ‘Managed On Site Server’ subscription. According to the firm, this brings customers a recurring revenue opportunity from server sales.

As Nick Bowden, Director of VMS Company, explains, MOSS servers are deployed on site but owned, managed, maintained, and warrantied by VMS Co, for up to ten years, with ‘next-business-day’, field engineer support as standard. Not only does MOSS provide a recurring revenue stream opportunity, he says, it also allows integrators to offer complete VMS-based CCTV systems on subscription, when sold with video management software rental licenses – a rapidly growing market, he points out.

Nick says: “VMS Co.โ€™s MOSS subscription is a recurring revenue stream opportunity for customers selling our market-leading, video management server hardware. The subscription is classed as a maintenance fee and an operational expenditure. If sold with rental VMS software, it means the entire VMS system can be a subscription, just like cloud.

โ€œMOSS brings the โ€˜managed serverโ€™ benefits of cloud to site, including flexibility to offer mid-term server upgrades as systems expand and end-of-life server replacement options as warranties expire. These are implemented by our field engineers and simply not possible with purchase or lease options. Dependence on unreliable broadband or WAN networks is removed with MOSSโ„ข and video streaming, storage, and broadband costs are far lower than cloud.โ€
