VideoBI / Partners / Partner training
Partners · Training

Training for your first installation.

New partners go through onboarding sessions with our team before their first customer site. The sessions cover the product and the demo, site surveys, installing and commissioning the edge device, and setting up zones.

What partners learn

Four onboarding sessions with our team.

Each session is led by the people who build and install VideoBI, for the people on your team who sell, survey and install.

Session 1

The product and the live demo

What VideoBI measures in each industry, how datasets become dashboards, and how to walk a prospect through the live demo with a sample chain of restaurants and distribution centers.

  • Datasets, dashboards, alerts and Ask
  • Giving prospects demo logins from the portal
  • Registering a deal and working a lead
Session 2

Site survey and camera placement

How to read a site for what the customer wants to measure: which existing cameras have a usable view, where a camera needs adding, and which edge device the site needs.

  • Views for counters, drive-thru lanes, kitchens and docks
  • Choosing between the dome and the bullet camera
  • Sizing the edge device by video streams
Session 3

Installing and commissioning the edge device

Mounting and connecting the edge device, connecting the customer's cameras on their network, and running the commissioning test that brings the site online.

  • Network and power requirements
  • Install codes and camera connections
  • Reading a failed test and what to try
Session 4

Zones and measurements

Drawing zones on each camera and naming the measurements that fill the customer's dashboards, so a site reports correct numbers from its first day.

  • Areas and lines on a camera's view
  • Counts, times and occupancy
  • Checking the first readings with the customer

After training

Support on every installation

The commissioning test checks each device and its cameras on site and says what to try when something fails. Our team sees the same results and can help while you are at the site.
