exacqVision services from our LA team

Most exacqVision calls we get start with a recorder that needs attention, a license that lapsed or a site that is adding cameras. Here is what we handle.

Support and repair

We diagnose recorders that drop cameras, run out of disk or stop exporting, replace failed drives and power supplies, and get recording back to normal.

Licensing and SSA renewals

exacqVision Professional, Enterprise and Edge licenses and their Software Subscription Agreements (SSA) are tracked per server, so version upgrades remain available when you need them.

NVR servers

When a recorder reaches end of life, we size a replacement exacqVision server for your camera count and retention, then migrate cameras and settings with a short, planned recording gap.

Kantech and alarm integration

Door events from Kantech EntraPass and alarms from supported intrusion panels can be linked to exacqVision so staff review the related video in one client.

Camera additions

New Axis and other IP cameras are added to existing exacqVision servers, with bandwidth and storage checked before anything goes live.

Need a new exacqVision provider in Southern California?

Many LA-area sites run exacqVision that was installed years ago by a company that is no longer around. BTI can pick up support on the system you have. We document each server, camera and license, confirm SSA status, and fix the issues that put recorded video at risk.

  • Server, license and SSA inventory
  • Version upgrades scheduled outside business hours
  • Drive health and retention checks on each recorder
  • Phased camera and server refresh plans
  • 24/7 system health and alert monitoring available, plus a 24/7 converged security NOC/SOC

Multi-site community health network, Los Angeles and Orange counties

BTI has supported security for a large community health network since 2017: about 2,800 Axis cameras, more than 1,000 Kantech doors and exacqVision recording across dozens of locations. A 2026 modernization plan separates security devices from clinical networks while keeping the existing cameras in service.

What's new in exacqVision for Los Angeles systems

Exacq shipped versions 26.0 and 26.1 in 2026. These are the changes our Santa Fe Springs team applies most on LA servers.

AI camera inspection

exacqVision compares live snapshots with reference images and flags changes and failures automatically, with alerts sent through the rules engine. Version 26.1 made the checks faster and more accurate.

Remote access without open ports

The Desktop Client and the new exacqVision Mobile App can connect through a cloud relay, so LA sites skip port forwarding and VPN setup.

Sign in with Entra ID or Okta

Version 26.0 lets staff log in with Microsoft Entra ID or Okta accounts, including multifactor authentication.

Mobile app upgrades

The app adds an Alerts Center, search across up to 16 cameras on one synchronized timeline, and VideoPush for sending a clip from search results to a colleague.

Enterprise Manager controls

26.1 adds enforced and self-service password changes, plus rules and real-time alerts when users, servers, failover or licenses change.

Kantech and SALTO events

Kantech and SALTO lock events, such as access granted or denied, are now captured in 26.1 and searchable next to the matching video.

How exacqVision support works in Los Angeles

Most LA calls start with a recorder that is failing or an installer who stopped answering. Here is how we take it from there.

  1. Collect what exists. List servers, software versions, license tiers and SSA dates
  2. Check health. Look at drives, temperatures, camera status and export function
  3. Fix urgent faults. Restore recording on failed cameras and drives first
  4. Plan upgrades. Renew SSAs or replace end of life recorders on a schedule
  5. Connect doors and alarms. Tie Kantech door events and alarm panel signals to the right cameras
  6. Keep watch. Recorder health alerts flow to our NOC with system health monitoring available

exacqVision Professional vs Enterprise vs Edge

exacqVision comes in three editions. Camera limits change with versions, so we confirm current limits when we quote.

EditionWho it suitsMain additions
ProfessionalBusinesses that need integrations and better searchAccess control and alarm integrations, advanced search
EnterpriseMulti-site LA organizationsCentral management, Active Directory and LDAP, health dashboard
EdgeSmall or remote spots without a recorderexacqVision installed on the camera itself (supported Axis and Illustra models)

We also support Milestone XProtect, so if you are weighing exacqVision against another VMS we can lay out both honestly.

California notes for exacqVision sites

A few California rules shape how recorders and cameras are set up. We flag them; your counsel decides.

Audio

California Penal Code 632 generally requires all party consent to record confidential conversations, so we ship recorders with audio disabled and turn it on only with counsel's sign off.

Recorder rooms

Recorders and cabling must not block exits or required clearances, and work above ceilings follows the local AHJ.

Licensing

BTI holds California ACO #7670 and C7 License 807767 for alarm and low voltage work.

Security Systems by Industry

Video, access control and alarm systems designed around the risks and rules of your industry.

exacqVision support in Los Angeles: FAQ

Can BTI support an exacqVision system someone else installed?

Yes. We start with an inventory of servers, licenses and cameras, check SSA status, and recommend repairs or upgrades. You approve every change first.

What is an exacqVision SSA and do we need it?

The Software Subscription Agreement (SSA) gives each licensed server access to new exacqVision versions. Without a current SSA, upgrades require a renewal first, so we track the dates for you.

Our recorder is old. Should we replace or repair it?

It depends on age, drive health and whether the hardware still runs a supported operating system. We test the unit and show you both options with the tradeoffs.

Does exacqVision work with Kantech access control?

Yes. exacqVision integrates with Kantech EntraPass, so door events can be searched alongside video, and supported intrusion panels can be added to the same view.

Can we add cameras to our current exacqVision server?

Usually. We check license count, storage and network capacity, then add the cameras and confirm recording on each one.

Can public agencies purchase exacqVision through BTI?

Yes. Public buyers in California can work through BTI's CMAS or TESMA awards, or through GSA contract 47QTCA21D00BA.

Is remote health monitoring available?

Yes. Optional monitoring alerts our team when a recorder goes offline, a drive starts failing or a camera stops recording, so problems get fixed before footage is needed.

What is the difference between exacqVision Professional, Enterprise and Edge?

Professional covers integrations and advanced search on a server. Enterprise adds central management, Active Directory and a health dashboard for multi-site systems. Edge runs exacqVision on supported Axis and Illustra cameras for small or remote spots.

Can exacqVision work with Brivo?

Yes, according to Exacq, which lists Brivo among its integrations for the Professional and Enterprise editions. We confirm your license tier before setting it up.

Can you help us compare exacqVision with Milestone XProtect?

Yes. We support both platforms, so we can compare them against your camera count, sites and integrations without pushing one.

We still run an older entry level exacqVision license. Is that a problem?

Exacq has deprecated that entry edition. Your recorder keeps working, but new licenses are Professional, Enterprise or Edge, and our LA team can review the server and plan the move with your existing cameras.

Can we view exacqVision remotely without opening firewall ports?

Yes. Recent Desktop Client versions and the new Mobile App reach your LA servers over a cloud relay, so no ports are forwarded and no VPN is needed.

Can staff sign in with their Microsoft or Okta accounts?

Yes. Since version 26.0, exacqVision supports Microsoft Entra ID and Okta single sign-on, multifactor authentication included.

Does exacqVision offer AI analytics?

Yes. Exacq Active Intelligence servers, powered by Scylla, detect events such as intrusion, weapons, fights and falls, and recent versions add audio analytics on supported Axis cameras.
