Explore the development path of the networked alarm industry

At present, networked alarm has been widely integrated into the construction of smart cities. From serving government departments, case solving, traffic control, big data applications to serving citizens' daily lives, home-based elderly care, smart buildings, parking management, etc., networked alarm technology has become an important part of smart city management and control in a multi-angle, large-scale and intelligent manner.

It is true that networked alarm has great application value, but it is also undeniable that the technology has entered a bottleneck period. It becomes very meaningful to connect with cutting-edge technologies and expand application markets and scenarios.

The reality and dilemma of the networked alarm industry

Networked alarm services can be said to be a "rigid need", but the current situation in the industry is not optimistic. From the perspective of the alarm service industry alone, the customer churn rate is high, network access is difficult, and rates are decreasing while costs are increasing. At the same time, there is a lack of interaction between operators and upstream and downstream industries. Traditional interaction is simply defined as "the purpose of finding a manufacturer is to buy its products", and manufacturers are merely positioned as suppliers. This has been the objective status quo of the alarm industry for many years.

In addition, most alarm service operators have a "new for three years, old for three years, patched up for another three years" attitude towards equipment use. Unless there are serious quality problems, there is basically no active replacement of equipment. In this context, most companies choose to sacrifice profits to maintain market share, which has made most alarm equipment manufacturers unable to invest more financial resources and energy in exploring new technologies and developing new products.

Network alarm enters a period of great change

It seems that networked alarm has reached a survival situation, and how to continue to develop is a big problem.

Today is the era of mobile Internet. The rise of artificial intelligence and big data has also brought about rapid changes in many industries. However, the changes in alarm operation services seem a bit conservative and lack sufficient vitality. It seems that networked alarm has reached a period of great change. Enterprises in the industry should still actively reserve hardware development, algorithm software, artificial intelligence and other technologies, keep up with the market and don't let themselves fall behind. In addition to technological progress and integration, innovation in business models also requires substantial progress: deep cultivation in the market segments and being small and fine enterprises, although playing the role of "screws", are easy to survive in long-term market competition; of course, for large projects such as smart cities and Xueliang projects, it is still necessary to build a large platform and a large ecosystem to create exponential prosperity for networked alarms.

It is worth noting that no matter how the environment changes, the service industry will continue to exist. The application of technology only adds more forms of expression to the basic attributes of commercial services. Practitioners also need to identify customer groups, target their needs, and then use various technologies to match service content.

The development of networked alarm is actually a microcosm of the development of a commercial society. It is essentially no different from any other product or industry. Even if future security alarm products are no longer presented in the form of current alarms, they will still go hand in hand in the road of technological application and service model innovation.
