Taser Aims To Be Emerging VSaaS Powerhouse

Author: Brian Karas, Published on Mar 01, 2016

Taser, the company, is best known for its stun-gun product (or "CEW - Conducted Electrical Weapon") which is commonly referred to as a "Taser".

But over the last few years, Taser has grown to include body cameras and video storage rather than just, well, Tasers.

In this report, we examine Taser's past and present business, dig into the financial details of their fast growing video / VSaaS business, and examine the impact they plan to have on the video surveillance market.
