Smarter Storage: How Cloud Video Surveillance Provides On-Demand Scalability
January 11, 2021 in Business Security, Cloud Video Surveillance, Retail Security, Supercircuits, Video Security and Surveillance BlogIn today’s fast-moving, security-sensitive climate, businesses require a scalable system to support the needs of their growing business. In this blog post, we’re going to share how cloud security can provide businesses with a higher capacity, flexibility, and cost-effective storage solution.
Cloud Video Surveillance Protects Data Storage
Business owners face a multitude of data threats.

This can include everything from inventory loss due to disgruntled or careless employees to shoplifters to network failure.
In today’s world, a security system must have sufficient back-up to preserve and store data.
With a traditional system, this often requires an IT team to set up and maintain a RAID storage array to back-up your mission-critical video evidence.
Cloud Video Surveillance provides a convenient way to stay secure with on-demand, storage scalability. With Cloud, you have the flexibility of unlimited storage and the ability to scale up or down at any time.
Whether data back-up is required by law, or solely for risk-mitigation, Cloud Video Surveillance eliminates data retention limitations typically found on on-premise systems, with one cost-effective solution.
Cloud Video Surveillance Cures the Compliance Trap
With Cloud video surveillance, business owners can put their angst over ever-changing compliance laws to rest. Because surveillance footage is stored off-site, there’s no risk of stolen or tampered with footage.
Cloud allows you to always have a secure back-up in place. Simply chose how long you’d like to store your data (from 7 days to a year), and increase or decrease your storage on demand.
Cloud Video Surveillance: Affordable, Multi-Site Security
Traditional security systems may seem like an affordable option at first glance, but over time causes limitations.
Because on-premise systems come with fixed storage capacity, adding more storage requires additional servers for each new location. In some cases, you may need to upgrade to a whole new system altogether.
This can lead to a costly and resource-heavy endeavor.
Cloud video surveillance allows multi-site businesses to manage their entire network from one centralized interface, add unlimited cameras and users to their network and streamline their operations.
Once you deploy the camera-to-cloud solution, your data is uploaded directly from your camera to our off-site data center.
Increase up to 25 cameras at a time from a centralized interface, and scale up with unlimited storage. Achieve greater reliability, flexibility, and secure storage with cloud surveillance – right when you need it most.
