Btw, this was asked by an integrator member, prompting us to run this survey.
If you have fundamental questions about surveillance use, selection, trends, etc., feel free to suggest it to us and we will consider it.
What percentage of video surveillance users have humans (guards, operators, monitors) watching live video? What schedules do they use? And what verticals most commonly have live monitoring?
IPVM conducted a survey of 120+ integrators to determine answers to these questions inside.
Key Findings
Here are the key findings from the results:

while this was expected I still like to have it confirmed by a survay that rarly cameras are monitored all the time.
I wonder what the percentage of cameras that the hoi polloi think are monitored.
Perhaps >25% ?
Leading to the hotly debated concept of cameras creating a 'false sense of security'.
any information about number of cameras with VCA used to bring live (event) video to the operator?
We did not ask about that here. However, analytic usage was covered here: Market Guide and Favorite Video Analytics 2014. Net/net it is still fairly uncommon and not even growing overall compared to a few years ago.
