MIRASYS FAQ
What is a video management software (VMS)?
A video management software (VMS) is a platform used to manage and monitor security camera systems. A VMS allows you to view live video, record and store footage, search and replay recordings, and control multiple cameras from one central interface. Modern VMS platforms also support features such as remote access, user permissions, video analytics, and integrations with third‑party security systems.
This makes a VMS the core component of any professional video surveillance solution.
