The Ultimate Guide to Cloud Video Surveillance | Cloud CCTV Explained

For years, traditional storage systems such as NVRs and DVRs, have been the go to choice for security professionals and businesses. But in recent years there’s been a shift towards cloud-based storage systems. So, what sets cloud storage apart from its predecessors? Find on, or watch our video to learn more...
What are the benefits of Cloud Video Surveillance?
Cloud video surveillance systems allow you to view your surveillance footage from any number of locations globally. Also, in the event of local storage failure, having your footage securely backed up in the cloud provides you with peace of mind.
Cloud video surveillance systems are scalable - so you can increase the number of cameras you record to the cloud, or how long you store the video for, without the hassle of physical upgrades. Some cloud systems also come with advanced features such as video analytics - which can give valuable insights about your surveillance footage.
A common concern with cloud storage systems is cost. However, cloud video surveillance can be more cost-effective in the long run. With traditional systems, maintenance, repairs and upgrades can often lead to unforeseen expenses - moving your footage to the cloud can eliminate these worries.
Cloud video storage providers like Videoloft, also use high levels of video encryption which means your footage remains confidential and protected from unauthorised access. This level of security can be hard to achieve with traditional, on-site storage systems.
Videoloft’s Cloud VMS Platform
Videoloft upgrades a traditional security system and turns it into a powerful cloud based Video Management System. It means you can add features like customizable live viewing, video analytics, multi-user permissions and more.
Videoloft is powered by a small bridging device called a Cloud Adapter. Our Cloud Adapter connects your video surveillance system to Videoloft’s cloud platform. It’s available in 8 or 16 channel versions, and there’s an Enterprise rack-mounted solution for larger installations.
Videoloft is compatible with hundreds of manufacturers, and depending on your camera or recorder brand, can completely remove the need for local storage - simplifying installation, saving time on-site and removing the risk of recorder theft or malfunction.
Videoloft is flexible and scalable and you can create a plan that fits your budget - you can choose which cameras you record to the cloud and how long you want to store the video.
Videoloft is simple to set up, and can even be done remotely! All you need is a Cloud Adapter, and the usernames and passwords of your cameras or recorders.
