I like the concept of a decentralized system with local edge storage however I suspect the ‘closed-proprietary’ design will be a very tough sell to the enterprise market.

I really like this idea! Are any mainstream manufactures using an accelerometer for tampering detection?

What size/type SD cards are recommended for these cameras?
How long have these recommended SD cards been burned-in to test for continuous write functionality?

I don't see whole lot of competitive differentiation compared to Meraki or Eagle Eye. Having very limited camera solution will be an issue as well as differnt application requires different types of cameras. This is one of the major issue with the new start-ups that has no video security background. Limited product offering really limits their full potential.

I'm with a VSaaS company, but I'll try to remove my bias for this comment. I think they have some interesting features, and I like the look and feel of their UI. The concept of storing the video on the camera helps deal with bandwidth requirements, but may make for some challenges when customers have network issues (and trust me - there are ALWAYS network issues.)
Overall their technology seems viable, but my concern would be on the markets they're targeting, the proprietary solution and their lack of experience in the physical security space. They will see some success for sure, but I think that they will be limited to early adopters who have specific situations where Verkada fits.
For my own selfish reasons I hope that they are successful in the enterprise space. It will help all VSaaS companies as more customers adopt cloud.

"The software portion of Verkada's system is where the company primarily differentiates themselves. The system is browser based, and the company says it should work with any 'modern' browser, and does not require plugins. It also works on iOS and later Android versions."
"Video is primarily stored on the cameras, but selected video can be backed up in the cloud."
Doesn't the 2nd comment pretty much make them similar to some DVR companies except stored on the camera...with FTP access to the cloud if needed?
1st comment - isn't every VSaaS system browser based with similar features?
Lastly, isn't Eagle Eye on onsite appliance also with FTP to the cloud for storage? Money yes, but different technology I don't know.
Aren't they all doing the same thing, recording locally and sending up to the cloud for login?

I like Verkada they are good guys to work with and we have done several project for them in Chicago. The cameras are good quality 3mp dome - I agree and have told them they need to get IR bullets for outside applications but the setup and config is very easy and it has a space in this market - it's not going to be for everyone out there but it's a solid cloud solution and the thing I like about them as I do about Avigilon is the service and support is solid not just the hardware.
