Our Chief Product Officer, Jeff Kellick, says his favorite Perspective VMS™ feature is the Global Search Tool. PVMS gives users the ability to search metadata across the enterprise. This includes user entered tags, video extractions, multi-view presets, cameras, map layers, and more.
The power behind the Global Search Tool is the SQL database that works behind the scenes collecting information and making it quickly available to users. The tool is accessible in many different applications within the software. Whether you are searching for a map name in the map module or a user-entered tag and a video extraction, the search tool will help you find your place quickly.
The Global Search Tool will rapidly search any content stored within PVMS. This feature is available within all versions of the software: Express Edition, Standard Edition, or Enterprise Edition.
Kellick told a recent training class about his favorite software feature. He said, “The global search tool comes in very handy when you choose certain names for devices versus certain names for your extractions, categories, groupings, etc. Those names play into the capabilities of searching and filtering.
If you’re interested in learning more about PVMS features, the Perspective VMS Features List is available on our website. Or, you may call us at (713) 395-0800 or email [email protected] for a software demonstration.
