Company Recognized for 360-Degree Smart Home Security and Monitoring Camera


ST. LOUIS, Jan. 04, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Guardzilla; a leader in affordable, HD WiFi security cameras that enable customers to monitor and protect their homes inside and out from their smartphone, today announced it has been named Home Security Camera Company of the Year by IoT Breakthrough for its innovation and design with the Guardzilla 360 video monitoring system. The Guardzilla 360 was also recognized recently as a CES Innovations Awards Honoree in the Smart Home category.  

IoT Breakthrough is an independent organization dedicated to helping the best Internet-of-Things (IoT) products and companies “Break Through” the crowded IoT industry. The winning IoT Breakthrough selections showcase IoT technologies and companies that have both succeeded in pushing ingenuity and exemplifying the best in connected solutions across the globe. 

“We are honored to be recognized by the IoT Breakthrough Awards as the Home Security Camera Company of the Year,” said Terry Bader, CRO at Guardzilla. “The Guardzilla 360 is upping the ante for home security cameras with its full, 360-degree view. It gives users the ability to see and communicate with their entire environment from their smartphone, while also delivering a robust security solution.”

Unlike typical WiFi video security systems that offer a very limited degree view and protection, the Guardzilla 360 provides a live 360-degree field of view, 360-degree night vision, and 360-degree motion detection with instant phone alerts. The new system also features breakthrough communication features including a built-in microphone and speaker that enables two-way conversing through the Guardzilla app, and three programmable call buttons for instant push notifications to smartphones. The Guardzilla 360 also offers a 100dB alarm to deter intruders and geo-fencing capability, so users have the option to automatically arm or disarm the system when their smartphone is detected exiting or entering the geo-fence perimeter. 

More than 3,000 award nominations from organizations and individuals representing 15 nations were submitted to the awards this year for consideration. The award submissions were judged by an independent panel of experts that represent a cross section of the industry, including journalists, analysts and technology executives.

The Guardzilla 360 retails for $229.99 and is available at Best Buy, Home Depot, Office Depot, Office Max, Staples, Target and WalMart.
