Founded in 1998, Milestone Systems has expanded successfully with high growth rates, as one of the worlds innovative drivers of digital video surveillance. When Milestone Systems started in business, few people in the security industry anticipated their role in the coming revolution to move the analogue world to a digital one. Milestone’s founders were ahead of the times. At trade shows where they demonstrated the software for managing network video surveillance with standard computer equipment, skeptical responses were the norm.
The security industry was a conservative mastodon with blinders on, self-satisfied with the profits from its proprietary business model built on the analog paradigm. Like old forests, these giants barely swayed in the first breeze of whispers about digital solutions, but the winds continued to gather strength, blowing down ever-greater swaths as savvy professionals saw the light ahead, changing the landscape of security forever. The many advantages of the IT networked approach could not be denied, and Milestone was on the forefront.
