"Security Dashboard - Everything you need"
What do you like best about Blue Iris?

Mobile friendly. Captures video in easy to organize tiles. Tiles can be played back just like any other audio/movie file. Captures video, audio, and gives ability to monitor all cameras/video in one place. The alert feature is really helpful too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

UI is a little old/outdated looking but it is very functional. In a lot of ways that is way more important. Little bit of a learning curve to get started and would have liked a little more guidance but I figured it out and its been great ever since. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
