Applications for organizing remote video surveillance via the Internet “IPEYE” are an excellent solution for accessing your CCTV cameras. Your cameras and recordings from them will always be at hand. Anywhere in the world, from any device (tablet, smartphone). IPEYE video surveillance will allow you to: 1. Add cameras from any manufacturer that supports the H.264/H.265 format to the IPEYE service (dozens of manufacturers support adding cameras to the service without a static IP address); 2. Absolutely free to get convenient access to live broadcasts from your CCTV cameras, including in VR BOX mode; 3. Securely store recordings from your cameras in the cloud, with an archive depth of up to 1 year or more; 4. Receive notifications about activity in the frame; 5. Edit the settings of your devices directly from the application; 6. For quick and easy access, place your cameras on the map; 7. Add cameras from the application to the cloud service. Advantages of cloud video surveillance from IPEYE The most important advantage of IPEYE is the reliability of data storage and access, which is achieved by several factors: 1. Reservation. All equipment, as well as all recordings coming from your cameras to our servers, are backed up, which eliminates the possibility of data loss in the event of a computer or hard drive failure, or loss of the equipment itself in the event of illegal actions of third parties. 2. No need to monitor the work and maintain your equipment If you want to organize video surveillance, but there is no way to monitor the performance of the server, disks and software around the clock, or you want to create backup storage for an existing video surveillance system, then the best solution would be to purchase a subscription to the IPEYE cloud video surveillance service, possibly by the best rates in the world! 3. Minimum number of links With IPEYE you do not need to purchase and maintain additional equipment. The number of links in the chain is minimal. All you need is a camera and Internet access. 4. Secure connection When accessing the service, all data, for security purposes, is transmitted over secure channels using encryption.
