What Prodis does

Prodis SA is a Swiss security solutions provider founded in 2001 and headquartered in Mont-sur-Rolle, operating across five regional offices in the French, German, and Italian-speaking regions of Switzerland. The company sells, installs, and monitors integrated security systems for individual households, SMEs, and institutional clients, including intrusion alarms (primarily Jablotron panels), video surveillance (ColorVu, dome, panoramic, thermal, and solar-powered cameras), access control (biometric, intercom, and temperature-screening systems), exterior detection (infrared barriers, laser scanners), fog generators, and fire/flood sensors. Its flagship technical differentiator is a proprietary in-house 24/7 alarm monitoring center (Centrale d'alarme) launched in 2009, staffed by multilingual operators who perform remote audio/video alarm verification (levée de doute) and coordinate intervention dispatch.

The product portfolio is organized into three subscription tiers — Protection Sérénité (alarm + monitoring), Protection Vidéo Combinée (alarm + video + monitoring), and Protection Premium (full coverage including access control, fog generator, and exterior protection) — plus standalone services for construction-site surveillance, senior teleassistance (Adrien), and lone-worker protection (Adrien Pro DATI devices). All offerings are delivered via a direct field-sales model: certified in-house security advisors conduct free on-site assessments and provide personalized quotations, supported by a multilingual website and online quote-request forms.

Prodis generates revenue through all-inclusive monthly subscriptions bundling hardware, installation, and lifetime maintenance. The company was acquired by the Global Sécurité group in 2017 while retaining its brand and direct client relationships. As of the most recent data, Prodis serves over 10,000 monitored clients across Switzerland and reports a 98% client satisfaction rate, with an average intervention response time of 24 minutes based on 3,031 interventions logged in 2020.

Scale indicators9 records

Recent moves11 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Securitas (Switzerland): Swiss arm of the global Securitas group offering manned guarding, electronic security, and alarm monitoring. Overlaps with Prodis in commercial intrusion alarm and monitoring services across Switzerland, but operates at vastly larger scale and with a broader service portfolio.
• Swisscom (Smart Home & Security): Switzerland's leading telco offering bundled smart-home security, IoT sensors, and alarm services to residential customers. Competes with Prodis at the residential subscription tier, leveraging telecom distribution scale rather than independent field sales.
• Bosch Security (Switzerland): Global manufacturer and integrator of video surveillance, intrusion, and access control solutions with Swiss distribution. Overlaps with Prodis in commercial-grade cameras, access control, and intrusion panels, often via integrator partners.

Others

• Mobotix: German-based manufacturer of high-end IP video surveillance cameras with strong European footprint. Adjacent vendor whose decentralized, cyber-secure cameras compete in the same video surveillance category Prodis resells to Swiss customers.
• Jablotron: Czech-based manufacturer of wireless alarm systems that supplies Prodis's core hardware platform. As Prodis's strategic technology partner, Jablotron shapes product capability and roadmap relevant to Prodis's service offerings.
• Sesam (Securitas e-solutions): Swiss online portal for security and alarm system integrators, part of the Securitas ecosystem. Adjacent channel that competes for SME security customers and installer attention in the Swiss market.

Emerging players

• Ajax Systems: Wireless smart alarm and security device manufacturer rapidly expanding across Europe with professional monitoring integrations. Competes in the underlying hardware layer that Prodis sells and could partner with or substitute for Jablotron systems.

Direct peers

• Protectas: Major Swiss security services company providing alarm systems, remote monitoring, and guarding. Competes directly with Prodis for SME and enterprise intrusion alarm subscriptions in the same Swiss market with comparable subscription models.
• Verisure: European alarm monitoring specialist with strong Swiss presence (formerly Securitas Direct), offering monitored intrusion alarms with proprietary hardware and 24/7 centers. Closest direct comparable in subscription model, monitoring infrastructure, and residential/SME target market.

Regional players

• Sitasys: Swiss provider of alarm receiving and transmission infrastructure for security service companies. Adjacent ecosystem participant; relevant as a potential technology backbone competitor or partner for Prodis's monitoring center operations.
