Welcome Stephen Self

Stephen SelfWe are pleased to announce that Stephen Self has joined Exacq Technologies in the role of Technical Support Specialist.

Stephen is no stranger to us.  We had the privilege of working with him back when we owned Integral Technologies, where he played vital roles as a Senior Support Engineer and a Software QA Engineer.  About three years ago he left Integral to take a position with Dell, where he was, among other things, the support manager in charge of a 3000-seat Dell installation within Citibank in Florida.

Stephen’s experience in managing support services at companies both big and small will certainly be welcome here at Exacq.  We’re experiencing rapid growth, and Stephen will be instrumental in ensuring that we maintain support practices and procedures sufficient to support our channel.

Stephen can be reached at sself@exacq.com or by phone at +1-317-845-5710.

Welcome aboard, Stephen!

Welcome Jeff Meeks

Jeff MeeksWe are pleased to announce that Jeff Meeks has joined Exacq Technologies in the role of Production Manager.

Jeff is no stranger to us.  We began working with him back when we were all with Truevision, where he was working in operations.  When we sold Truevision and started Integral Technologies, Jeff soon came over and joined us.  At Integral he held a variety of positions in the operations department, and most recently was the Operations Manager for the entire company.

The timing of Jeff joining us now at Exacq couldn’t be better.  We’re experiencing rapid growth, and the demand for production has increased dramatically in the last few months.  Jeff will be managing the production of our line of exacqVision Hybrid and IP video surveillance servers, as well as planning the production for some new products coming down the road. 

Jeff can be reached at jmeeks@exacq.com or by phone at +1-317-845-5710.

Welcome aboard, Jeff!

Exacq Extreme Programming – Version 2.7 Coming

Extreme Programming 13Version 2.7 of exacqVision IP video surveillance software is coming, and this weekend the engineers engaged in another “extreme programming” session to iron out all remaining issues and solidify the code for release.  (Previous “extreme programming” coverage here).

A key feature in exacqVision Version 2.7 is Event Monitoring and Virtual Matrix Switching which we profiled here.  There are also many, many enhancements to existing features, from improved audio support and improved client configuration to a substantially improved ePlayer app.

Version 2.7 will be available the week of August 13th on our downloads page.  As always, new versions of exacqVision software can easily be installed in existing systems while maintaining all current settings.

More pictures of this weekend’s extreme programming session are on our flickr photo page.

Extreme Programming – Exacq style

extreme programming 8One of the familiar sights around Exacq is the engineers engaging in “extreme programming,” where they get together in a room with their laptops, and with multiple exacqVision servers fully loaded with analog and IP cameras, alarm inputs and outputs and POS/ATM connections, and hammer out all of the remaining issues before a new public release of the software.

As we get ready to release Version 2.5 of exacqVision, TJ, Dan, Jim, Mark, Matthew, Sean, Brian, and others have been working away cleaning up all of the remaining issues identified in the beta releases and release candidates.  We make sure there is plenty of pizza and Diet Coke to keep them going.

Some pictures from Wednesday are below, and there are more on our flickr photo page.
