With Exacqvision version 7.8, the Exacqvision client provides faster access to video and better bandwidth management. Exacqvision users closer to the archive location on the network can directly search video on the archive without routing data through the recorder. In the transportation market, operators can easily search video directly through the archive using Exacqvision Edge+ VMS software, even when a bus or vehicle is away. Exacqvision Edge+ runs directly on an edge device like an IP camera without the need for an NVR or separate server.

To further simplify camera connections, Exacqvision 7.8 introduces camera connection diagnostics to assist installers with quickly establishing correct IP and port paths between the recorder software and camera. The new diagnostics provide guidance and detail to reduce troubleshooting time.

For Exacqvision recorders, Exacqvision 7.8 will automatically run periodic hard drive health checks to proactively notify users when a recorder hard drive may fail to streamline hardware repair and minimize downtime.

Exacqvision VMS now supports nearly 3,000 IP camera models including cameras from Illustra, Axis Communications, Arecont Vision, Panasonic and other leading IP camera manufacturers.

The Exacqvision VMS is accessed with the freely distributed Exacqvision client software (Windows/Linux/Mac), the Exacqvision free web browser client available for all leading web browsers (Google Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari and Opera), as well as the free Exacq mobile app for iOS, Android and Windows Phone 8 devices. The VMS software is included with pre-configured Exacqvision NVR servers or it can be installed on third-party Windows or Linux-based systems.
