Almo’s Professional A/V Division, North America’s largest professional audio visual distributor with global reach, today announced new security & surveillance expansions as well as new wireless options as part of its Almo CONNECT Service, led by Business Development Manager, Rob Voorhees. Almo is showcasing the latest updates to Almo CONNECT on the fall leg of its E4 AV Tour, coming to New York Sept. 19 and in Irvine, California, on Oct. 3.
Almo partners can now offer 24/7 video monitoring and surveillance for their customers through the new Comcast Business Smart Office Solution. Smart Office offers hardwired HD-quality cameras at the property and instant mobile access so owners can monitor their workplace from anywhere, while recording up to 30-days in the cloud. Additionally, through a new partnership with Comm-Core, Almo CONNECT can provide full security and surveillance systems, including 24/7 alarm monitoring services such as door contacts, window breaks, motion sensor, roller door sensors, along with a suite of smart technologies that integrate through a DSC Neo Alarm Panel. At the same time, Almo CONNECT now features a partnership with MetTel Mobile, a top wholesaler of AT&T, Verizon and Sprint wireless services, to provide more support and better end user pricing.
Rob Voorhees, Business Development Manager for Almo Professional A/V said, “Through the addition of these security & surveillance options, we can now offer our Almo CONNECT partners a range of basic to full-featured choices so they can further customize these services for their customers’ installations. And because of our partnership with MetTel Mobile, those customers will receive the same great service they are accustomed to through AT&T, Verizon and Sprint except now they will also receive complimentary monitoring, reporting and back office management along with a substantial savings off their wireless services.” He continued, “Along with providing more depth to the Almo CONNECT service, the inclusion of these options also gives our partners more potential for recurring revenue with each integration project.”
With specialties in consumer electronics, cable & satellite, and data & bandwidth products and services, Rob Voorhees is responsible for leading the Almo CONNECT service program. He supports customers with implementing new business practices around telecom services while managing the relationship between Almo and its service partners. Before Almo, Rob was Territory Sales Manager at DSI Systems. He also held field sales and promotions positions with Campaigners, Brinks Home Security and Sears Roebuck Company.
