Milestone dedicated to quality ONVIF Support
Milestone works closely with device manufacturers in the Camera Partner Program (CaPP) to achieve optimal interaction between their devices and the XProtect VMS. The same rigorous testing applies to driver standards like ONVIF.
Before ONVIF-supported devices are listed in the supported hardware list onmilestonesys.com, they have been tested to ensure 100% functionality with the XProtect open platform technology. This enables the Milestone Community to pick the best devices for their end-customers from the market’s broadest selection and be assured of the functionality of any supported device.
"ONVIF is not just ONVIF. We ensure that all devices we list as supported are tested and certified with the exact ONVIF-version. Only by doing this can customers and integrators be assured the full functionality of ONVIF-devices.” Says Henrik Sydbo Hansen, Group Manager, Devices & Integrations, Milestone Systems. "We are fully transparent in this certification, and believe that we are leading the industry here.”
