Eagle Eye Networks, the US-based cloud video security services firm, has appointed David Barr as Enterprise Sales Manager for Europe to work on the Enterprise Market Segment in the region. David has 30 years of experience in the security industry, joining the firm after 17 years with Xtralis ADPRO, which in recent years was acquired by the mutli-antional Honeywell.
Eagle Eye says that the security market is in a transition, from an on-premise recorder market to a cloud market for video surveillance.
David said: “This change isn’t happening overnight, but the great thing about Eagle Eye Networks is the possibility to start with a hybrid on-premise and cloud solution where clients can immediately see benefits of the cloud without investing in new hardware. Eagle Eye Networks works with more than 3,500 existing analog or IP cameras, and even DVRs can be directly connected to the cloud. This is a gamechanger for companies that want to upgrade their video surveillance, migrate to the cloud for additional cybersecurity, and better manage their operations in a multi-site environment.”
Rishi Lodhia, Managing Director for the region, added: “The creation of this new role and the experience David brings to Eagle Eye Networks illustrates the company’s continued commitment and growth to support Enterprise customers within the region. Enterprise customers are transitioning rapidly to the cloud due to our easy API integrations and open platform capabilities.”
This follows the recent announcement of an investment in Eagle Eye Networks of $40m from Accel. Visit www.een.com.
