Seeing authorised activity creates queues & increases the chances of missing a real event. ​
Knowio solves this. ​

Implementing Knowio in your control room will result in faster response rates, less human error, greater efficiencies and therefore a greater staff-to-site ratio, increasing customer retention and profits. Plus your staff will be happier, and will be more likely to stay with you.

Just some Knowio features​

We needed a scalable, easy to manage access solution for our car parks and stock yards, where the authorised visitor list changes regularly. Knowio is a Godsend from an efficiency perspective.

An open gate is an open invite to criminals. Now we have real-time visibility on lots of critical gates that we previously could only know were closed by doing costly physical checks.

Mick Power

Coillte Forestry

End user behaviour has shifted dramatically since I migrated to Knowio. All users are aware of the complete traceability. Incidents of the gate being left open has now fallen to practically zero.

Control room staff know that schedules do not work. Keypads in the detection zone don’t work. With Knowio, arm and disarm can by manual via the app or a wireless keypad or automated via schedule or when a smart padlock is opened. Best of all? They all work together.

The way it should be: The end user in control

Knowio was designed to put the right person in control of the site security – the end user.

It reduces the need for Control Room Operators to have to deal with end users regarding arm and disarm. Just like it is with an intruder alarm.

Improve staff moral and increase retention rates

Working in a CCTV control room is hard.

As queues grow, operators under pressure may make assumptions to maintain response times, leading to mistakes, angry end users, and misplaced blame on the operators.

With Knowio, verified activity is filtered out, allowing operators to focus on their core task: responding swiftly and effectively to actual crimes.

Frequantly Ask Question

1. What is a CCTV control room?

A CCTV control room is a central hub where operators monitor live video surveillance, alarms, and access control systems. It ensures real-time responses to incidents, improves property security, and streamlines workforce management.

2. How does remote arming and disarming work in a control room?

Remote arming and disarming lets operators activate or deactivate security systems from a centralized dashboard. It prevents false alarms, supports holiday mode, and ensures the right status for multiple sites.

3. What is control room automation?

Control room automation uses software and IoT devices to handle tasks like CCTV arm/unset, access control, and alerts. This reduces manual work, improves efficiency, and allows staff to focus on critical events.

4. How does Knowio control room system improve efficiency?

Knowio’s control room system integrates CCTV, alarms, and smart padlocks into one platform. It optimizes workforce scheduling, reduces downtime, and enables faster responses through cloud-based automation.

5. What is control room workforce optimization?

Control room workforce optimization balances staff workloads, automates repetitive tasks, and supports multiple user levels. It helps operators manage large sites, empty areas, and one-off events efficiently.

6. How does monitored CCTV control benefit businesses?

Monitored CCTV control provides 24/7 surveillance, live video review, and automated alerts. It reduces unauthorized access, ensures compliance, and strengthens overall security for industrial estates, storage utilities, and property managers.

Desktop Portal

Operators can use the portal to arm and disarm sites on demand and create passcodes to give one-off access to gates with smart padlocks or to keyboxes holding important keys. Admin staff can use the portal to quickly change schedules, add/remove users and a host of other tasks.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a CCTV control room?

A CCTV control room is the central hub where operators monitor live video, alarms and access control to detect incidents and coordinate responses. Operators use the desktop Portal and mobile app to arm/unarm sites, create passcodes and review logs. It provides a single view of many sites so teams can act fast and stay accountable.

2. How does remote arming and disarming work in a control room?

Remote arming/disarming lets operators change a site’s security state from the Portal or app, or it can be done locally via wireless keypads. It also supports automation (schedules, holiday mode or triggers such as a padlock opening). Every change is logged for audit and reduces unnecessary on-site visits.

It also supports automation (schedules, holiday mode or triggers such as a padlock opening). Every change is logged for audit and reduces unnecessary on-site visits.

3. What is control room automation?

Control room automation applies smart rules and IoT to handle routine tasks — for example auto arm/unset, scheduled changes and alarm filtering. Automations can link padlocks, sensors and cameras so verified activity is filtered out. This reduces manual steps and lets operators focus on real incidents.

4. How does Knowio control room system improve efficiency?

Knowio integrates CCTV, alarms, padlocks and sensors into one platform so operators work faster with fewer errors. The Portal enables quick passcode creation, site configuration, zoned arming and event search. Fewer queues and verified-activity filtering free staff to respond to real threats, improving response times and retention.

5. What is control room workforce optimization?

Workforce optimization uses automation and role management to balance workloads and remove repetitive tasks from operators. By filtering routine, verified activity, operators can handle more sites with less stress. The result: higher productivity, better morale and a stronger staff-to-site ratio.

6. Does Knowio have scheduled arming and disarming too?

Yes, and unlike traditional arm/disarm methods, in Knowio scheduled arming works in conjunction with manual arming. For example, if a system is not armed by a certain time, Knowio can be programmed to auto arm at that time.
