Kingwood 0 Posted July 28, 2008 I've tested several type IP cameras from China and other country,most of them showed the picture is not very good,and have bad software,such as it's not easy to manager more than 200 cameras,have no motion detect function ,cannot control PTZ etc. Our company have a project in Venezuela Goverment that need 500 pcs IP camera on traffic control,Is there any one can give me a good solution?Or provide some suggestion?[/b] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jasonkkn 0 Posted December 7, 2008 when the size of the project is large / complex, and the number of camera channels is large, careful selection of software is very important. As you have tested, there are many IP camera manufacturers who will throw in the software for free. Those software are probably worth only that much - free. ACTi, Axis, Etrovision, Vivotek, just to name a few, are known IP cam manufacturers, whose expertise is in the hardware, thus the software that is bundled is probably for very basic use - record, store, and some playbacks - for a limited number of cameras. For a project your size, you might want to consider the enterprise range of video management software, such as DVTel, Verint, Indigo Vision, Bosch, Genetec. The underlying database design & structure is thoughtfully designed and implemented - which means the software will remain stable and perform even if the camera count is huge. Hope this gives some insight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
