Case Study: Sheffield Hallam University achieves faster, future-proof campus security with Milestone Systems

How open platform video took university security to the top of the class

Sheffield Hallam University needed to replace its legacy analog CCTV with a more secure, flexible video surveillance system that could provide full visibility across its campuses and work over its high-speed network. The university chose Milestone Systems’ open-platform Milestone XProtect® video management software, including XProtect Corporate, to move beyond a vendor-driven hardware model and support future growth.

Milestone Systems implemented a system that integrated existing analog and new IP cameras, centralized multiple security inputs, and enabled fast investigation with Smart Search and Sequence Search. The solution improved reliability and efficiency, automated vehicle access with license plate recognition, reduced operator interruptions, and delivered time savings, performance gains, and carbon footprint reductions, while giving Sheffield Hallam University the flexibility to add future integrations.
