In many cases, the person you discuss your potential purchase with can either assist you in making the right choice, one that reflects upon your grasp of the technology, what your specific application requires, and good decision-making, or push you into a system you neither want nor need but one that satisfies the high-pressure commission salespersons primary goal of a fat commission check.

Few who sell these systems have any connection or frame of reference to properly explain the function and operation of the equipment, the features and benefits of the system when utilized properly as they have never installed one, never walked a customer through the setup, programming, User Graphical Interface operation and honestly cannot tell you why 100% Solid State is the only memory storage you should ever consider in a mobile application, because in most cases they are just reading from a product PDF they were handed.


The number of those who sell these systems who know what they are talking about is small.
The number of those who know the difference between Prisoner & Inmate Transport Cameras & Forklift Camera Systems is very small.
The number of those who sell these systems who have helped design the hardware Video Player Software is tiny.
The number of those who have installed thousands of Elderly Day Care Shuttle & School Bus Camera Systems systems is microscopic.
Very few have trained Assisted Living Transportation & Yard Mule 5th Wheel King Pin Vehicle Camera setup and software usage.
Fewer still understand the chain of custody issues required by the court system for Expert Witness testimony.
The sad reality is in most cases, the people pushing these systems know little to nothing about them, and their primary focus is on the commission check they receive when you purchase from them.





Why Purchase School Bus Video Camera System from American Bus Video? 


1 - Online Pricing Disclosure - Customers deserve to see product pricing online to compare systems.
To those interested in a product, price is often the final objection and primary concern, so why force a customer to be subjected to a grilling by high-pressure commission salespeople just to learn how much a product costs and then be placed in a sales contact database for future unsolicited telemarketing-interruptions.

American Bus Video Inc. is Not embarrassed about our School Bus Video Camera System pricing, and it is provided online for all to see so that those who are working on budgets for next year do not have to waste their time.


2 - Best Value Without Deceit - Customers deserve the best value for their investment, not deceit.
Capitalism only works when it is based upon the “Free exchange of value without deceit, coercion or initiation of force.” Sadly many competitors deceive potential customers about product specifications and capabilities. The most common lies are that their company manufactures the product, writes the programs, owns the rights, etc.
Some customers seek Low-Cost School Bus Cameras, as they are not interested in more exotic features, while some seek Best Value School Bus Cameras for their district, and those two requests can differ greatly as their "value" is subjective.

American Bus Video Inc. offers a free exchange of value without deceit. ABV provides School Bus Video Camera System product specs & distributor disclosure because only the customer can determine the best value for their investment. Those who lie to, deceive or misrepresent products to school districts not only violate principles, they also force the customer to make bad decisions based on false pretenses.


3 - Freedom Of Choice, Not Propriety Coercion? - Customers deserve Freedom Of Choice.
ABV offers “Freedom of Choice” by using Industry-standard CCTV camera connectors. The current business model gleefully embraced by most of those offering systems in this market is one of “Propriety Camera or HDD connectors”, which can be viewed as coercion and a violation of the principles of Capitalism. Propriety connectors on their cameras = FAT profits in the future because you are forced to purchase from that supplier only, without the freedom to choose lower-cost suppliers.

American Bus Video Inc. provides customers “Freedom of Choice” by using Industry-standard CCTV camera connectors on our School Bus Video Camera Systems, so if a customer is unhappy with our service and wishes to purchase more camera heads or accessories, they can use other manufacturer product or suppliers, as we do not force them to keep purchasing from ABV.


4 - Service Memo, Product Problem Disclosure - Customers deserve to know if a product is reliable before they buy it.
Several mobile system providers not only make it difficult to determine the reliability of their products but actively conceal product faults to prevent loss of sales.
When a number of customers report a similar problem with a product, we open a Service case, and when solved, we create a Service Memo to be posted online for all who may experience a similar problem with that product to learn the solution.

American Bus Video is the only School Bus Video Camera system provider, to my knowledge, that openly provides documented details of School Bus Video Camera System product problems and solutions, as true Capitalism is based on “Free exchange of value without deceit or coercion”, so we provide product problem transparency, so customers can make educated choices.


5 – 100% Solid State Reliability DVRs - Customers deserve the Reliability of Solid State DVRs, not fragile Hard Drives.
Most companies embrace a business model of fragile hard-drive-based DVRs with high failure rates in a mobile video application, ensuring future profits from replacement hard drives. In some cases, the replacement hard drive profit far exceeds the system profit.
American Bus Video offers 100% Solid State DVR-based School Bus Video Camera Systems, offering durable high reliable memory storage technology. ABV does not subscribe to the “Bus Video Raw Deal” perpetuated by a business model promoting DVRs with fragile Hard Drives.

6 – Lifetime System Warranty - Customers deserve the highest level of Warranty Possible.
While most school districts are forced to purchase by low bid in an effort to stretch funding, some have the flexibility to purchase the best quality systems with the best longest-lasting system warranty. The Testudo Lifetime System Warranty offered by American Bus Video Inc. is the best value warranty for those who seek the longest assurance of product functionality.
