What 26 Arbolus experts think of Hikvision

NPS distribution is distinctly positive, with the vast majority scoring between 8 and 10. High renewal intent prevails among influencers and high spenders, though isolated non-renewals and pilot-stage hesitancy appear among new adopters. Most customers are at the more than 1 year implementation stage, demonstrating platform stickiness. Key themes include strong reliability, value for price, ecosystem flexibility, balanced by concerns on cybersecurity, advanced analytics licensing, and integration complexity. Overall Customer Sentiment: Positive
