ISC West 2019: Qolsys Overview with Jeremy McLerran, Qolsys Marketing Director

In this video, Frank talks with Jeremy McLerran of Qolsys to discuss how Qolsys has grown as a company and their more recent transition into commercial markets. Qolsys was originally created with home markets in mind, but they have worked to make their IQ Panel 2 Plus System suitable for businesses.

Transitioning from a primarily residential system to a dual-purpose residential and commercial system has greatly shaped the development of the Qolsys IQ Panel 2. Qolsys made sure that the system featured a user-friendly layout that was easy to use for home users. The DIY market flocked to the IQ Panel 2, as users greatly appreciated the system's intuitive menus and its general ease of use.

Qolsys also added various features to the IQ Panel 2 that improved the experience for home users. They made the automation menus easily accessible and added two-way streaming capabilities with cameras. Facial recognition and Bluetooth disarming were also applauded additions that enhanced the experience for residential users.

But Qolsys saw the opportunity to take their existing system and make it suitable for commercial use as well. The IQ Panel 2 Plus brought over all the existing features of the original IQ Panel 2 and added support for extended range PowerG Sensors. These sensors are great for larger commercial and businesses settings where reliability is a must. The company also obtained various certifications and credentials that made their system suitable for commercial applications.

The result was a commercial-grade panel that provided the same ease-of-use as a home security system. Thanks to their innovation, Qolsys was able to revolutionize the security industry by making one of the first dual-purpose residential and commercial alarm systems. Plus with the company's Qolsys IQ Hardwire 16-F and support for legacy sensors, it is super easy to upgrade to the IQ Panel 2 Plus from an older existing system.
