Hardware accelerated Video Motion Detection (VMD) offers customers a higher-performing system, but at a reduced total cost thanks to the CPU load reduction – making it possible to add more cameras per server than ever before.Milestone have also highlighted some extra benefits that the new ‘plus’ products will provide:
It will allow them to make further software developments in the future, as well as enable customers to seamlessly grow their system over time and upgrade to more advanced products such as Corporate or Expert – in a matter of minutes. We feel that the introduction of this advanced codebase to Milestone’s ‘business-ready’ product range is a smart move.
However, if you’re an existing Milestone XProtect Express or Professional customer and need advice about upgrading or using this advanced platform, contact us – our expert technical team are Milestone certified and happy to help. The advanced platform that XProtect Express+ and XProtect Professional+ have been built on does differ quite a bit from that used in XProtect Express and Professional, meaning there will be a fair-sized learning curve for current users who choose to upgrade. These new variants of XProtect will provide access to a host of advanced Milestone features – allowing you to take advantage of the latest in IP camera technology, reduce the overall total cost of ownership, and also facilitate easy system upgrade if you ever wish to move up to an ‘Advanced VMS’ product. These two new products will be released on June 8th 2017 and will complement Milestone’s current ‘Business-ready VMS’ portfolio. In light of this, Milestone will soon release XProtect Express+ and XProtect Professional+, providing this growing customer-base with software that’s been built using the same high-performance architecture as the advanced products. However, the number of organisations with small to medium-sized systems is growing and will soon account for more than half of the total video management software market. Organisations with large surveillance systems and those with more demanding technical requirements have clearly benefited from this investment. Over the past decade, Milestone have invested heavily into research and development to ensure their ‘Advanced VMS’ XProtect products ( Expert and Corporate) use the highest-performing video management engine for complex, business-critical applications.
