I have three Pelco systems I'm responsible for at work, Two Pelco DSSRV2's and a Pelco DX4600 analog DVR.
Pelco has gone to 3 year subscriptions for each camera if I want to upgrade to the latest stuff (had a close call NVR failure last week, but was able to replace the ssd and get it going)
Question Is?? What is out there that I can replace the video servers with? We have 8 IP cameras, 8 analog cameras on IP encoders & 16 more on another analog system that I would like to tie in and convert to IP at some point. Every year we add a couple more cameras.
Key thing is these are viewed from 4 locations right now, 3 client PC's and the one standalone (for now) analog station with 4 monitors.
We are real time monitoring industrial stuff like conveyors and feed points from multiple locations, but also have weigh scale licence plate cameras are mandated to be stored for a year. I'm recording the plate cameras to both NVR's for redundancy, but am aware there are better/easier options.
1/3 are PTZ and all are in a dusty environment.
Am I one of the last rat's to bail off Pelco's sinking Ship? Info about other brands client PC's is what is what's really holding me back.
