Dynamic Dashboard – NX Witness VMS – direct Axis LPR integration – Granular access level control and more

CredoID version 4.18 – Dynamic Dashboard focuses on your data

CredoID has taken a big leap in functionality with version 4.18 release on October 14, 2024.

First and most visible change is the introduction of the new, dynamic dashboard for immediate overview of system status. See at a glance whether any of system devices require attention, what events happen at different times of a day, or which doors are getting used the most.

The default panel provides system health overview, system event timeline and analysis of access granted and access denied events. You can further:

  • Create multiple custom dashboards
  • Select data from a wide range of available streams
  • Enable only relevant data for different operators
  • Set data collection and refresh intervals
  • Change data visualization types and styles

The new Dashboard replaces previous, data-card based version, and is a free add-on for all CredoID users eligible for updates. We invite you to try it today – Windows installer of CredoID v4.18 is available from download.credoid.com, and Docker container for Linux is at DockerHub.

AXIS License plate verifier is now directly integrated with CredoID

A truly valuable solution has been added to CredoID in the form of Axis License Plate Verifier – an edge camera license plate recognition, which can be used as a standalone LPR / ANPR without a dedicated VMS.

Available built-in on selected Axis camera models, or as an app purchase on a broad range of products, the solution streamlines automated parking management for all types of facilities, bringing setup time, cost and maintenance savings.

Other benefits include:

  • Monitor up to two different zones with movement direction detection (a single camera for in- and out- traffic)
  • Single-point management interface for all user credential types – cards, fobs, mobile IDs and license plates
  • Allow / deny list management with schedules, using access levels
  • Multi-factor authentication combining license plates with other credentials for high-security sites
  • CredoID’s customizable alerts and threat level automation for comprehen-sive security
  • Convenient and comprehensive report generation
  • Adapt to changing needs and integrate with other systems using open REST APIs

The solution supports both Mercury and Aero controllers, and can operate multiple barriers from a single controller. If you have been postponing your parking automation because of the high installation and license cost – it is now the perfect time to look at the numbers again. Prepare to be surprised!

NX Witness v6 VMS joins the growing list of CredoID integrations

CredoID v4.18 welcomes another addition to integration portfolio!

NX Witness v6, the latest generation of high-performance cross-platform VMS from Network Optix, has been integrated with CredoID.

CredoID operators can:

  • View live streams from s associated cameras directly in CredoID interface
  • Automatically save clips and static pictures of selected event types
  • Place camera shortcuts on CredoID floor plan / map and get instant camera view by clicking on them
  • Send http commands to NX Witness to control recordings of cameras of interest
  • Use Triggers mechanism to automate camera actions in NX Witness

The integration between CredoID and NX Witness opens new opportunities for integrators and customers, looking to deploy modern, efficient, scalable and cost-effective solution for both CCTV and access control.

As an additional benefit to CredoID customers, we also added a backwards-compatibility with earlier version (5.1) of NX Witness code, on which both Digital Watchdog Spectrum and Hanwa Wisenet Wave are based.

So rather than have a single VMS, you now have a choice of three ecosystems, and can pick whichever serves your business best. Things don’t get much better than this!
