Micro Key Solutions Presents Certificate Of Appreciation

Micro Key Solutions, a provider of software solutions for the security alarm industry, honored Fidel Gonzalez, owner and president of Laredo Alarm in Laredo, Texas, with this year’s certificate of appreciation.

This award is presented to customers who provide continued endorsement of Micro Key Millennium Software through their support and guidance.

Gonzales is a recognized pillar within the security industry. Micro Key Solutions values and appreciates having his company as a key customer.

Wayne Torrens, president of Micro Key Solutions, gave Fidel the award at Micro Key’s ISC West 2009 exhibit booth in Las Vegas.

“Fidel, this is the least Micro Key can do to thank you for being an excellent business partner and assisting us in spreading the word about Micro Key’s solutions,” Torrens said. “You are constantly recommending our products and services to your fellow central station owners and have served as an excellent advocate. Everyone at Micro Key Solutions enjoys working with you and appreciates your willingness to state how our software and services have enabled you to grow your business.”

“This was unexpected," Gonzales said. "When you have a vendor like Micro Key that does a good job for you, you don’t mind talking about your experiences and are more than happy to recommend them. Micro Key is such a good company that I want everyone to know about them. It’s nothing out of the ordinary for me to talk positively about them, and I certainly didn’t expect to receive something for doing so.”

Laredo Alarm is a full-service security specialist. The company installs, services and maintains the burglar and fire alarm systems for homes and offices, as well as for commercial, industrial and institutional buildings.

Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
