• License-Free AI Analytics: Features intelligent event search, facial recognition, and people counting for smart surveillance insights.
• License-Free Centralized Management: Centrally manage multiple NAS and multi-site camera streams for easy deployment and maintenance.
• myQNAPcloud Surveillance Storage: Provides dedicated cloud backup for surveillance footage to meet data retention compliance and ensure reliable video archiving. (Currently supported only on QVR Surveillance; incompatible with QVR Elite/QVR Pro.)
• Compatible with 8,000+ Cameras: Supports over 200 camera brands and the ONVIF standard.
• Recording Protection Mechanism: Prevents file corruption during abnormal events to preserve crucial footage.
• Supports QVR Recording Vault for Active Backup: Works with a video backup server for offsite, long-term archiving to meet compliance requirements.

“QVR Surveillance unifies performance, stability, AI, and cloud integration, helping businesses streamline management processes and build a sustainable surveillance environment with optimized costs,” said Wade Chen, product manager, QNAP.
