The Simplicity of the Smart Client, different ways to customize roles for users, and the integration of our systems such as our 2N doorbell cameras.

I also wanted to add that we really appreciate the speed, understanding, and problem solving of your technical support. Every time I have called in, we would also finish our conversation with a solution to the given situation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are no initial dislikes from our Company regarding the service. 1 dislike that is minor, is the management client is not as simplistic as the smart client, but this could also be because I am still learning the smart client in its entirety. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The intuitive interface, seamless integration with a variety of devices, and robust customization options make it an industry-leading choice. Its scalability allows it to adapt to any environment, from small setups to enterprise-level deployments.

I like the ease with which I can manage and view the different cameras from a single place. The platform is intuitive and allows me to supervise multiple locations quickly and orderly, which greatly improves efficiency in daily monitoring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I don't like is that I haven't found video manuals or detailed tutorials that explain how to set up all the tools the software offers. It would be very useful to have more visual resources to make the most of its advanced features, especially for those who don't have technical training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Everything has a price and Milestone is no exception. More lightweight options at entry level pricing woult make it easier to sell in and upgrade smaller customers.

The integration of AI is still very complicated in comparsion with other more open systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We like the ability for all of our users to access Milestone via the web interface. We have 50% Windows users and 50% Mac. We needed to find a solution that everyone can use and Milestone fit that bill for us. We are considering the integration with BriefCam to utilize smart features to save time and find more footage.

It enables easy provisioning and management of cameras while also incorporating a number of powerful tools such as being able to easily implement custom rules to tailor to our specific requirements. The user interface makes monitoring and retrieving footage efficient, even in large deployments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We've encountered some issues with the 'Add Hardware' feature of the Management Client, which has been documented by some other users online. We received prompt and personalised support from Milestone for this issue, and to their credit they were able to work with us for a workaround, however this issue has re-occurred so it does raise potential concerns about the long-term reliability of some features.

Resource usage on the Smart Clients can also become very high, even on more powerful systems which meet or exceed the requirements recommended/outlined by Milestone, so optimizing camera settings/streams is crucial, especially more-so with larger deployments.
