TASER International today announced it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire MediaSolv Solutions Corp., a leading solution for interview room video, CCTV, in-car, and on premises digital evidence management. MediaSolv's product suite will be connected to TASER's Axon and Evidence.com platform, further enabling law enforcement to unify existing silos of digital media and evidence into a seamless workflow from capture to the courtroom. The combination will offer MediaSolv's existing customers enhanced management, storage, and sharing capabilities through the Evidence.com cloud platform, while simultaneously enhancing and expanding TASER's existing portfolio of products and services.
Since 2009, MediaSolv has focused on delivering an integrated product suite, expanding its capabilities in 2011 with the acquisition of Insight Video Net—the core team behind the Panasonic Arbitrator in-car video system. An established leader, MediaSolv delivers an integrated digital evidence management software product for law enforcement that handles evidence from interview rooms, surveillance cameras and provides support for Panasonic's Arbitrator in-car video. Current customers include the Chicago Police Department, Philadelphia Police Department, Toronto Police Services, among others. In total, Mediasolv's customers include an additional 7 major cities, bringing the total number of major city agencies on TASER's digital platform to 23.
