The Lifecycle Cost of a Security SystemThe Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) for an Axis camera system encompasses all costs from installation to decommissioning. While initial expenses like cameras, software, and installation are easier to estimate, ongoing costs such as maintenance, replacement, electricity, storage, and cybersecurity can be harder to predict. Monitoring costs often make up a significant portion of long-term expenses.
A TCO approach helps identify and manage these hidden costs, guiding decisions and cost-saving strategies. Axis TCO analyses show that 30% of costs occur before deployment, while 70% are incurred during operation, emphasizing the need to factor in long-term operational costs.
The TCO model also supports assessing Return on Investment (ROI), showing how quality solutions can deliver savings and pay for themselves in just one to two years. By considering both TCO and ROI, buyers can make better-informed decisions, focusing on long-term value rather than just initial costs.

Axis Communications aligns with PASS by providing advanced security solutions like network cameras, access control, and video surveillance, ensuring comprehensive protection.
