Advanced authentication
Have multiple employees at your business? Only trust a few? It happens and that’s why we have support for
per user authentication. Only allow
certain users to access certain areas of the software. Hide a camera, restrict their hourly access
or prevent them from logging in from home.
Remote access
Want to watch your business while on the road? No problem!
With an iPhone or Android device you can connect with a web browser and view live video. We also have a free
Windows remote client that you can connect multiple DVR installations
together.

Ease of use
No matter if you are installing this for a client or at home we’ve made the installation process simple (seven steps). The interface is easy to use (See our screen cast here). Buttons are large and the interface is easy to navigate. Our
developers speak English so you won’t ever be trying to decode Chinese-English.
