All the features you need to replace your on-premise video surveillance with remote video surveillance in one cloud platform

  • Cloud Video Storage

    Store critical surveillance footage securely off-site in the cloud for up to 2 years. Eliminate on-site recording hardware and keep video from all your cameras in one secure location. Access and manage your private cloud archive through our beautifully designed multi-camera Timeline on our web and mobile apps.

  • Use existing IP Cameras

    Use the security cameras you want with Camcloud. Our platform works with a wide range of IP cameras, including plug-and-play support for leading brands such as Axis, Amcrest, Hanwha Vision (Samsung), Milesight, and Speco, along with broad compatibility for many other IP cameras.

  • Monitor Multiple Locations

    Camcloud makes it easy to manage video surveillance across apartment buildings, rentals, and vacation homes from one platform. Cameras connect directly to the cloud, eliminating the need for separate on-site recording systems at every property. Built-in organization tools let property managers group cameras by property, building, or area, making it easier to monitor entrances, common spaces, parking areas, and more from one interface.

  • Cloud AI & Analytics

    Add cloud-based AI and analytics to your existing camera system without replacing your cameras. Camcloud helps property managers unlock smarter detection, searchable events, and new surveillance features across apartments, rentals, and vacation homes without major hardware changes.

  • Alerts, Access Notices & LPR

    Camcloud centralizes notification and alert management across all your cameras and locations. With traditional NVRs, alerts must be configured individually on each recorder, making large deployments difficult or impossible to manage. Cloud-based notifications provide a single, centralized place to define, update, and control alerts consistently across your entire surveillance system.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is remote video surveillance for apartments, rentals, and vacation homes?

Remote video surveillance lets property managers monitor live and recorded footage across apartments, rentals, and vacation homes from one cloud platform. Instead of relying on separate on-site recording systems at each property, cameras connect to the cloud so you can access video remotely, centralize management, and simplify surveillance across your portfolio.

Can I use my existing security cameras?

Yes. Camcloud works with a wide range of IP cameras, including plug-and-play support for many leading brands. That means you can often keep the cameras you already have, avoid unnecessary replacements, and move to cloud-based surveillance at your own pace.

How does Camcloud help manage multiple properties?

Yes. Camcloud is built for multi-site monitoring, so you can manage cameras across apartment buildings, rentals, and vacation homes from one account. Cameras can be organized by property, building, or area, making it easier to oversee entrances, common areas, parking lots, and other key spaces from a single interface.

Do I need an on-site recorder or server?

No. Security cameras connect directly to the cloud, so there is no need to maintain separate on-site recording hardware at every property. This reduces maintenance, lowers failure points, and simplifies deployment across multiple locations.

Is cloud video storage secure and reliable?

Yes. Video is stored off-site in the cloud, protecting it from theft, tampering, or hardware failure. You can retain footage from days to years depending on your requirements.

How do property managers access live and recorded video remotely?

Property managers can securely access live and recorded footage through Camcloud’s web and mobile apps. This makes it easier to review incidents, check activity at different properties, and respond quickly without needing to be on-site.

Can I get alerts for motion, property access, and vehicle activity?

Yes. Camcloud centralizes alerts and notifications across your cameras and locations, making it easier to manage them consistently. You can use alerts to stay informed about activity at entrances, shared spaces, parking areas, and other important access points across your properties

Does Camcloud support license plate recognition (LPR)?

Yes. Camcloud offers license plate recognition as part of its product set, which can help property managers monitor vehicle activity, review incidents, and add visibility at entrances, parking areas, and other vehicle access points.

Can Camcloud add AI features to my existing camera system?

Yes. Camcloud’s cloud AI and analytics are designed to add new capabilities to your existing camera system without requiring you to replace your cameras. This can include smarter detection, searchable events, and additional surveillance features that can be expanded over time.

How does Camcloud reduce costs compared to traditional video surveillance systems?

Camcloud helps reduce costs by removing the need for separate on-site recording systems at every property, lowering maintenance requirements, and simplifying how surveillance is managed across multiple locations. Reusing existing cameras can also help reduce upfront replacement costs.

Can the system scale as I add more properties?

Yes. Camcloud is designed for scalable, multi-site deployments. As you add new properties or cameras, they can be brought into the same cloud platform without rebuilding separate surveillance systems for each location

Does it work for older or fragmented surveillance systems?

Yes. Camcloud is designed to modernize existing, fragmented setups by bringing all cameras into one cloud-managed platform without requiring a full system overhaul.

What kind of internet connection is required?

Camcloud works over standard internet connections and can also support deployments using 4G, 5G, or satellite networks—ideal for properties with limited infrastructure.

Can I manage user access across multiple properties?

Yes. You can assign user permissions across properties and cameras, ensuring staff only see what they need while maintaining full administrative control.

What happens if a camera goes offline?

Camcloud includes camera health monitoring and can notify you if a camera stops recording or goes offline. That helps property managers identify issues quickly and reduce blind spots across their properties.
