Sensormatic Security System – 4
Fix Your Malfunctioning Monstrosity By Purchasing A New Anti-Shoplifting System.
     Although it is not called an anti-shoplifting system (it is an anti-theft system) the library where I work does have a RFID system in place to keep people from walking out with library materials. About a week or so ago our system began alarming with no one around. What a nuisance! The alarm was doing what it was intended to do, attract the attention of employees but it was loud and after a few minutes a major distraction to patrons. I walked over and looked for a cause for the alarms but there wasn’t anything obvious in the area. I unplugged the system and plugged it back in but to no avail. No sooner did I walk away than the alarm started acting up again. Once more I looked around and could find no cause for the issue. There was a trash can nearby but it did not have anything in it that would have set off the tower. Finally, with no other recourse (besides allowing the alarm to drive out all of the patrons) I unplugged the tower and submitted a ticket to our technology staff. It would have been so much easier if this had been a retail store with a Sensormatic security system instead of this RFID company.
     When I was a Loss Prevention Manager and an equipment failure or problem happened with a retail anti-shoplifting system I used to have the ability to put in a service call on my own. The response was usually quick. In the meantime, I would have to lose the protection of the system because I would unplug the unit. The erratic alarms and chirping were a distraction to customers and a signal to shoplifters that the system was out of order. Today’s technology allows a retailer to have a security system remotely analyzed and in some cases worked on without a technician having to come out to the store. It is a pain to wait for a system to be fixed. You worry about the criminals who are going to take advantage of your “down time”. With the purchase of a Sensormatic security system from Loss Prevention Systems, Inc. that down time may no longer present an issue for your store. 
     When you are deciding on where you should purchase your anti-shoplifting system you need to consider that Loss Prevention Systems, Inc. offers remote service to their clients. To quote their website, “A simple connection allows Loss Prevention Systems, Inc. to conduct remote maintenance and fix some issues without an onsite service call at a fraction of the price.” It doesn’t get any clearer than that. I can also tell you that after having a conversation with Bill Bregar the CEO of Loss Prevention Systems, Inc. he takes his commitments to his clients seriously. If your Sensormatic security system has a problem and it cannot be resolved remotely you are going to get a Sensormatic certified technician to complete the work. I have worked with sub-contractors in the past. Some are good at what they do but there are others who are not and it can be a hit or miss proposition with which one you would get. A Sensormatic certified technician knows the equipment and how to repair it properly.
     An anti-shoplifting system has to work consistently if it is going to be effective at saving your store money. If you have a system that is constantly in need of attention to keep it operating you have a real problem on your hands. If you have a system that seems like it is on its’ last legs it may be time to look for a replacement and it may not be as expensive as you think it will be. A visit to the Loss Prevention ROI Calculator will show you how much you could save in shortage with a new (fully functional) Sensormatic security system. It will also show you how long it would take for a new system to pay for itself.  What I am trying to get at is a broken down system is costing you money in service calls and stolen merchandise. A new system will pay for itself over time and with the purchase of a standard Sensormatic system from Loss Prevention Systems, Inc. you also get a one year warranty! Get on the road to savings with a reliable anti-shoplifting system.
