"Milestone now has an even stronger and more competitive family of open platform IP video management software, offering more options from the world’s leading solution provider: deeper functionality, fast and flexible installations, and affordability. We are excited to reveal our new product Xprotect Express, and the latest updates to the Xprotect product suite," says Lars Gudbrandsson, Head of Product Management at Milestone Systems.

Xprotect Express is a new addition to the Milestone product line. Supporting up to 48 cameras on a single server, it offers speedy VMS integration for small businesses like retail. Due to the open platform environment, businesses can seamlessly integrate solutions such as point-of-sale and video analytics directly into the Xprotect smart client, for a common interface and unified operating system.

In addition Milestone is also now offering Xprotect Essential 2 designed for small, single-server businesses that want to manage up to 26 surveillance cameras. With a wide set of features to view and export video evidence, Xprotect Essential is cost effective with a flexible licensing model that makes it easy to expand the system.
