GPRS 3G cell phone mobile technology, now available throughout the Uk, is extremely cost effective, and in most cases for Remote Alert customers, a cheaper and much easier option than installing a PSTN telephone line with ADSL broadband. Our Remote Alert online security camera monitoring solution works perfectly well with 3G and GPRS mobile Internet connections. Helping our Remote Alert clients to save money, for CCTV camera monitoring, by using the latest 3G cellular mobile phone technology available in the UK

One of our Remote Alert clients, who has been operating GPRS/3G mobile from a well known UK 3G mobile data network provider, for a Mobotix CCTV security camera, located at the gates of a disused factory in Scotland, required their high resolution Mobotix surveillance security camera to be monitored by using Remote Alert. Electric power was available at the `no longer` in use Gatehouse, overlooking the main entrance to the void factory, but the costs for the client to install a PSTN telephone line, and then ADSL enable it, was going to make their operating costs well over their security budget for this project.

After our recommendations, to operate their Mobotix CCTV camera, by utilising low-cost GPRS/3G cellular technology, our Scottish based client can now remotely monitor their megapixel Mobotix security camera by logging onto their Remote Alert account. Key members of Head Office staff, can now view recorded date and time-stamped snapshot images of all contractors, tradesmen and staff that are arriving and leaving their empty factory while carrying out essential maintenance work at their void factory. Giving them a detailed record of times of arrivals, and departures for contractors and maintence staff working at the empty and void factory.

Our Scottish based factory client, is not using Remote Alert as a frontline security system, to protect the currently empty factory, but as a secondary security solution that will assist them to monitor, day and night, all people arriving and leaving through the main entrance to the large void factory.

Already, their GPRS 3G Mobotix CCTV security camera, monitored by Remote Alert, has assisted them to dispute some invoices, that a Contractor had overcharged them for maintenance work being carried out, over a specific period of time, when their workers had not been in attendance for the stated days that was noted in their invoices.      Another happy client seeing the full benefits of Remote Alert.
