Licensing Licensing, for installers
Structured to be read, not negotiated. Fit it once. It pays you again.
Prices come from your installer, so ask for a quote. What we publish is the structure: what you license, how you pay, and what happens if a payment goes astray. No tiering games, no per-seat tax.
Your customer’s prices come from you. What we publish is the structure: what they license, how they pay, and what happens if a payment goes astray. Every site you fit carries licences that renew.
Three rules. No small print. Three rules. Short quotes.
-
Per unit. Not per seat.
You license doors, cameras and storage. Add as many staff as you like: nobody is charged for logging in.
You quote doors, cameras and storage. The customer adds staff freely, so nobody rings you about a seat count.
-
Monthly or annual.
Pay monthly and cancel any time, or pay annually for less admin. Same licence either way. Nothing is held back for the longer commitment.
Monthly or annual on the same licence. Nothing is held back for the longer commitment, so there’s nothing to haggle over at renewal.
-
Storage is bought, not tiered.
Cloud video is sold by the terabyte and pooled across the whole site, not by megapixels and retention days. You buy the space; how long it lasts is a number we show you, not one you have to guess.
Cloud video is sold by the terabyte and pooled across the site. Quote the space; the app shows the customer how long it lasts, so you don’t have to.
What goes on the quote.

Four states. Doors never lock because of an invoice.
What happens when a renewal bounces or a purchase order takes its time. Written plainly, because you want to know this before you sign anything.
What happens when a renewal bounces or a purchase order takes its time. Written plainly, because your customer will want to know before they sign, and nobody rings you over a locked door.
