Aimetis Symphony is a future-proof, open IP video surveillance software platform available in three editions. The Standard edition offers a robust set of features for network video management and recording and helps organizations make a cost-effective initial transition to IP video. The Professional edition offers advanced network video management and integration features for more complex installations, while the Enterprise edition combines all the functionality of the Professional edition with Aimetis' industry leading video analytic algorithms to provide full intelligent IP surveillance.

Aimetis Symphony's simple 'one camera, one license' licensing model provides a seamless migration path from analog CCTV to intelligent IP surveillance by allowing end-users to mix and match editions on the same server, add cameras in increments of a single camera and easily upgrade from one edition to another, eliminating the need to change hardware or integrate with third-party systems.
