Virtual Arm / Disarm
Reduce false alarms and save your organization time and money by virtually arming or disarming a location from wherever you are. The OWS alerting engine uses the armed stated of locations to filter alerts and ensure you only get notified when it matters most to your business.
NOTE: Virtual Arm / Disarm is available as a closed beta. Please reach out to your OpenEye sales representative for more details.
