Best IP Camera software

[buellwinkle]

I have an Arecont AV3100DN, doesn't work with Blue Iris. They offered to help if I can expose the camera to the internet for remote access. Unfortunately, the camera and my router are not cooperating with this request.

I did get it work fine with Milestone and a single camera license is free, can't beat that. That makes it $30 cheaper then Blue Iris single camera license.So for now, that's my choice and it's based solely on price.

Well true, but as soon you need a second cam (and I am sure you will soon) you should reconsider that. a 26 cam version of Blue Iris is US$49.95.

It does not neccessarily need to be your own cam, if you know of a demo camera that is all you need to inform blue iris support of.

Nah, giving up on this whole PC software thing, too much trouble. Going to put the Arecont on ebay this weekend. I liked the idea initially, mostly to run different brands of cameras on one software, but then gave up when I realized that it's not as easy as I thought.

For the Mobotix cameras, all the software I need is built into the cameras, one less thing to worry about. Heck, I can do more things with it's built in software than just about any PC software I looked at.

The best IP camera recording software we have come across is EyeSoft by BiKal IP CCTV.

It can record up to 64 cameras per server but best of all it supports multiple IP cameras from different manufacturers to USB webcams, IPTV streams to analog capture cards. You can even use megapixel HD cameras with up to 1920x1080p resolution.

Try Security Monitor Pro - http://www.deskshare.com/smp.aspx

This has been the easiest to use software I have found.
