Thanks for the detailed info Soundy!

Greetings, I am new to the world of surveillance cameras, and was hoping that you could help me figure out the ideal setup for my needs. Here are the details... The space is is a 40,000 sq ft warehouse. There are 13 "pods"- which are individual rooms that are leased by clients. Each one of these pods needs one camera. Outside, we wanted to cover all sides of the building with autotracking ptz cameras, so that would be four cameras. We also planned on an additional 9 cameras to cover common areas of the building. This is a total of 26 cameras. We would prefer that all cameras are decent resolution (at least DVD resolution). Here are our requirements: System must be able to operate for at least an hour without power System should alert if power is cut - preferably by sending multiple SMS messages. Must be able to moniter and control PTZ via internet. Here is our wishlist: It would be really great if individual clients could login and view ONLY their leased space. System sends slow feed of images from each camera to some kind of offsite archive - just in case the physical security of the computer or dvr is compromised. Is there something out there that suits our needs? Would I be better off with wired or IP based system? DVR or PC setup? Who are the best vendors for this equipment? I dont know if this is relevant but I am in the United States. Thanks for your help.
