Case Study: ClwydAlyn Housing Association achieves centralised, secure cloud video management and faster investigations with Verkada

How Top Housing Association Uses Verkada for Environmental Safety and Quality Assurance

ClwydAlyn Housing Association, which manages over 6,000 homes across seven counties, faced fragmented, site-by-site CCTV systems that forced IT staff to travel to remote locations, hunt for credentials, and manually extract footage. To centralise and simplify video security, IT Technical Manager Nick Peers selected Verkada’s cloud-based solution—deploying Verkada cameras and the Command platform along with People Analytics and plans for environmental sensors and access control.

Verkada delivered plug-and-play PoE cameras, cloud management, motion-based search, Face Match and person-of-interest alerts, centralized camera health monitoring, and a 10-year warranty; an initial 15-camera install was completed in under a day. As a result, Peers and his team can locate and share footage in seconds rather than hours, remotely diagnose and replace cameras, enforce role-based access and audit logs, store data in an Irish EU data centre for GDPR compliance, and reduce maintenance and security risks associated with legacy NVR systems—all delivered through Verkada’s platform.
