Hardware Independence
Milestone XProtect is a software-based VMS system. With Milestone, your solution is built around the latest computer, network and storage technologies. So when it's time to replace your cameras, add cameras, expand storage or incorporate new integrated solutions, you'll be able to the best-of-breed product for your application. In addition, because XProtect resides on standard computer technology, you'll have lower maintenance cost, better service and avoid long down-time associated with repairing proprietary based solutions. You'll also be able to apply affordable software upgrades each year. These upgrades will provide significant new features and capabilities, allowing your system to evolve with your needs and technological advancements.
Power of Choice
Milestone XProtect is available in five different product versions. So you'll be able to pick the version that best matches your application and budget. In the future, if you need to upgrade to a more advanced version you can do so very affordably. The Milestone XProtect "Power of Choice" doesn't stop there. The XProtect solution allows you to use any combination of three interface clients: XProtect Smart Client 7, XProtect Mobile 2 and the all-new XProtect Web Client (of browsers and operating systems on the market (Mac, Windows or Linux) and requires no additional software installation on the client computer in order to monitor surveillance from any Internet-enabled device), giving users the ability to use the client that is most convenient to their situation.
Simple Interface
The Milestone client software products are powerful yet very intuitive. In a short time you will be a master of your system. There are many advanced and powerful features, but Milestone's Map feature, Alarm Manager, Camera Navigator, drag and Overlay Buttons and Configuration Wizard simplifies things, enabling users to continuously program the perfect monitoring views, alerts and streamlined investigation tools. Of course this is all just words. Seeing is believing, so feel free to check out the Milestone YouTube Channel or contact us for a personalized demonstration.
Powerful, Flexible & Proven Architecture
Milestone XProtect has become the world's leading VMS platform for many reasons, but perhaps the number one reason is that has proven to be a reliable and flexible solution. Milestone XProtect is in over 50,000 installations world-wide, ranging from small economical one-drive systems to incredibly large and dispersed systems utilizing sophisticated enterprise storage solutions. With Milestone's flexible architecture you can reliably accommodate practically every scenario. So I guess that is why we usually recommend Milestone - it simply fits!
Future-proof & Open-platform
Finally, but certainly not the least important reason we choose Milestone XProtect, is that it is truly an open Platform VMS solution. Many VMS systems claim to be Open Platform, but they don't really walk the walk. As an integrator, we noticed Milestone's clearly documented SDK and successfully produced our own integrated solutions. We also noted Milestone's exhaustive list of compatible cameras and devices, its numerous integrations and industry partnership and its certified solutions program. It is clearly evident that Milestone is commitment to working with Partners and walking the "open platform" walk.
