What is Unifi Video?
Unifi Video is a video management software solution developed by Ubiquiti Networks for small to medium-sized surveillance deployments. It works with Ubiquiti's line of Unifi IP cameras to provide centralized management, live viewing, recording, and video analytics.
Some key features of Unifi Video include:
- Centralized management of multiple Unifi video cameras through a single interface
- Ability to create customizable camera views and layouts
- Live video streaming with multiple viewing options
- Motion detection alerts and recording triggered by motion or alarms
- Searchable cloud video storage options
- Mobile apps for iOS and Android allow remote viewing
- Integration with other Unifi products like the Unifi Network and Unifi Protect
Unifi Video is designed to be easy to deploy even for non-technical users. The software handles camera connection, recording management, storage and viewing within a unified system. Scaling up just requires adding more Unifi cameras. It can meet the needs of most small business video surveillance systems but doesn't offer some advanced features like facial recognition that enterprise systems have.
