Camzify for CCTV and alarm installers

Installers are usually the reason a site's cameras exist in the first place. Camzify attaches to the systems you have already installed, including ones several years old, over RTSP, RTMP or HTTPS. Nothing you specified is displaced: the recorder stays, the cameras stay, and virtual patrolling becomes a service line on top of the footprint you already maintain.

Connection

Three ways a camera reaches Camzify

A camera whose stream is reachable from the internet connects directly by its RTSP URL. A camera on the customer's LAN connects through the Camzify Connector, a small application on a PC inside that network, so there is no port forwarding to negotiate with the customer's IT. Encoders and streaming appliances push RTMP to a private ingest address, and web-delivered streams connect over HTTPS, whether HLS or WebRTC.

The route is chosen per camera when it is added, and a site can mix all three. The RTSP setup guide walks through finding the URL, choosing the route and adding the camera.

On the job

What commissioning looks like

Add cameras by route

RTSP URL, Connector discovery, or a generated RTMP ingest address with server URL and stream key. Stream quality is detected on connect.

Set recording per camera

Continuous or scheduled, retained by days or by a storage cap. Apply a preset to every camera on the site in one action.

Build the patrol round

Order the camera stops, write the checklist for each, assign the guard to notify, and set the schedule. The customer can adjust it later.

Hand over cleanly

Create the customer as a sub-user scoped to their sites, pick a permission group, and keep a maintenance login if they want you to.

What stays and what changes

Nothing you installed is displaced

  • The NVR or on-premise VMS keeps recording as before. Camzify records to the cloud on its own schedule, so the customer gains a copy that survives a stolen or destroyed recorder. The cloud versus on-premise comparison sets out the trade-offs honestly.
  • Cameras stay. Any ONVIF-conformant IP camera with an RTSP stream works, and the supported cameras page lists sixteen brands with protocol notes. We sell no hardware and hold no preference for any manufacturer.
  • Your relationship stays. The customer sees the service under your hand-over, and the report per round gives them something to show their own management that a camera installation alone never did.

What we will not tell you

That there is a certified installer program, a partner portal or a published margin. There is not, and we would rather say so than invent one. Commercial terms for integrators are agreed in conversation. What we can say is what the product does, in detail, on the platform pages and in the guides, and our position on claims is on the trust page. If you also operate monitoring for your customers, the managed service providers page covers holding accounts on their behalf, and the selling guide covers the conversation with a customer who has never heard the term.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

No. Camzify takes a stream from the camera and records to the cloud on its own schedule and retention. The on-site recorder keeps doing what it does. Where a camera cannot be reached from the internet, the Camzify Connector on a PC inside the customer's network relays it, and the site's existing recording is untouched.

Any camera that produces an RTSP stream, which covers ONVIF-conformant IP cameras from the major manufacturers, plus RTMP from encoders and HTTPS streams (HLS or WebRTC). The supported cameras page lists sixteen brands with notes per protocol. Camzify sells no hardware, so nothing is reserved for its own cameras.

A small application installed on a Windows, macOS or Linux machine that sits on the same LAN as the cameras and has internet access. It discovers local RTSP cameras and relays them to Camzify without port forwarding on the customer's router. PTZ control passes through it where the camera supports it.

Yes. Set the account up under your own login, add the sites, cameras, recording schedules and retention, then create the customer as a sub-user scoped to their sites with a permission group that fits. If the customer wants you to keep a maintenance login, the reverse also works: they hold the account and you are a sub-user with the access you need.

Per camera, with bulk actions. Each camera records continuously or on a schedule, and keeps footage by a number of days or a storage cap. A schedule or a retention preset can be applied to every camera on a site, or on the whole account, in one action.

Nothing hidden. The product is the same and the pricing is quote-based either way. What you bring is the site access, the camera knowledge and the customer relationship, which is most of what a deployment needs. Commercial terms for partners are agreed in conversation, not published, because we do not publish numbers we cannot stand behind for every case.
