Overview

Genetec is a Canadian company founded in 1997 that builds unified physical security software, and it was among the first to argue that video surveillance belonged on standard networks and servers rather than on dedicated recorders. Its Security Center platform combines video management, access control, automatic licence plate recognition and intrusion monitoring in one interface, sold through integrators to airports, transit systems, cities, hospitals and large enterprises. Headquartered in Montreal and privately held by its founder, it is unusual in the industry for refusing to build its own cameras, which keeps it neutral between hardware manufacturers.

Products

Security Center SaaS
The hosted version of the platform for customers who do not want to run servers. Moving physical security to a cloud service has been slow, because operators are reluctant to depend on connectivity for life safety functions.
genetec.com
AutoVu
Automatic licence plate recognition for parking enforcement, city operations and law enforcement. It is used both in fixed installations and on patrol vehicles, which are quite different engineering problems.
genetec.com
Synergis
Access control managing doors, credentials and permissions across a site or portfolio. Because it shares the platform with video, a door event and the footage of it are linked automatically rather than reconciled afterwards.
genetec.com
Omnicast
The video management component supporting cameras from most manufacturers. Staying hardware-neutral is a deliberate strategy: it lets customers mix cameras and avoids the conflict that camera makers with their own software face.
genetec.com
Security Center
The unified platform combining video, access control and licence plate recognition in one interface. Unifying them matters operationally, because a security operator investigating an incident otherwise has to correlate three systems by hand.

People

Pierre Racz
Founder and Chief Executive Officer
Pierre Racz founded the company in 1997 and has led it since, keeping it private and independent. He has argued publicly against the industry's use of Chinese-manufactured cameras on security grounds.
