jhonovich 0 Posted July 19, 2008 I just wrote an article speculating on the impact of the recession on the business: http://ipvideomarket.info/review/show/153 Key points include: * This recession is different from the last one * The debt market collapse will make users delay new purchases * Megapixel cameras will fare the best * DVRs will continue to decline slowly * A shakeout of NVR/IP Video software companies will occur * Video analytics will fare the worst What are you seeing with your customers?

sw 0 Posted December 13, 2008 I'm somewhat of a cowboy on the subject of recession. I say "If the economy is down, let that be your competition's problem". Just scoop up a bigger share of the market. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sawbones 0 Posted December 16, 2008 The recession has definitely been felt in all sorts of markets... ask any car dealership. In my own field (health care), we've even seen a drop in our census, starting in August of this year. However, in recessions, crime also tends to increase, along with the public's awareness of it... so I don't know that security-based businesses will feel as sharp a decline as some other sectors. I'm only a hobbiest when it comes to CCTV, so I can't speak from personal experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
