It's no secret that ISC West is full of top-notch security companies from across the globe. Walking through the exhibit hall is like treading across a never-ending sea of amazing solutions, products and brand new innovations.

"Our channel partners expect to be able to efficiently and accurately quote a job, without any guesswork, and certainly without any change orders. The new Inovonics EN7017 survey kit and app answers this call, clearly letting a sales rep know when and where a repeater is needed, so that every rep can be a wireless expert – even if it's their first time quoting a wireless job," said Scott Fincher, senior product manager at Inovonics.
