Diamond Dog 0 Posted March 16, 2016 Can anyone recommend a good cloud storage company to backup my DVR to? I know people have talked about this as a good best practice, but my search on this forum has not yielded specific companies. Also, after searching, it seems like most companies store data from separate ip Cameras . I have a unit that does not have seperate ip Cameras yet I have a total of 7 cameras feeding into a DVR where I can view them all. The unit I have is here: http://www.scansysinc.com/v4/hd-over-coax/lite-hd-tvi/lite-hd-tvi-dvr/vtd-l108.html Thanks in advance for your help Report this post Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know I can use the DVR as a cloud server and view remotely. But I was more referring to a company or a way I could upload the video to store offsite so that if there is a fire or if someone steals my DVR, I could still retrieve the video. The closest thing I have found is a company called invideon https://www.ivideon.com/ However you have to have a PC on all the time in addition to your DVR. Looking for a company where I can jsut pay a monthly fee and upload from my DVR Hi your unit comes with cloud option Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's call remote view when going back to your dvr. Off site cloud is something recorder manufactures add as a service . Your supplier has only changed the name on your dvr. They don't make it or give you the cloud service. You could always build your own local cloud ..... Units with 4tb are cheap enough now . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeromephone 6 Posted May 31, 2016 not exactly what you are looking for but Geovision has a line of cameras that are saved directly to the cloud and you pay a fee depending on how much storage you need. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But all have high costs and no guarantee of having footage when you need it .... But think about 3rd party cloud ...... Giving your network to a company you don't know. Having monthly costs . And not so long ago ..... I'll try and find the thread .... A cloud company posted all its customers links on a webpage for anyone in the world to watch .....3rd party cloud is no good and a waste of money . Do your own cloud storage and keep it local .
