Hikvision UK Paying Installers With Amazon Gift Cards To Become Hikvision Certified
Training, or the lack thereof, for technicians has long been a problem for installation quality. Now, Hikvision has a highly atypical solution for this.
This could boost the adoption of Hikvision certificates in the UK but brings up broader concerns around the effectiveness of such programs.
Hikvision has had a challenging past year in the UK including:
- Bans Roll Across Scotland And UK Against Dahua and Hikvision
- Hikvision UK Employees Decrease
- UK's Largest Retailer Tesco Bans Dahua and Hikvision
- Hikvision Starts Charging For "Remote Maintenance Package" Cloud Service
In this post, IPVM examines this latest Hikvision strategy.
