Milestone Arcus Video Surveillance Software Available with My Cloud Business Series Systems
WD and Milestone Systems has announced a partnership to deliver video surveillance solutions to businesses and consumers.
Milestone Arcus™ Surveillance software will be available on WD’s My Cloud® Business Series1 network-attached storage (NAS) systems with the new My Cloud® OS 3 operating system beginning this month; and is expected to be available on other My Cloud systems, such as the My Cloud Expert Series, in the future.
Milestone Arcus is a video surveillance platform designed to be embedded in hardware devices, such as compatible WD My Cloud NAS systems, to deliver customised, market-ready solutions. Integration of Milestone Arcus Surveillance software into My Cloud OS 3 enables users to transform their versatile My Cloud Business Series NAS systems into networked video recording systems for their offices or homes. By simply downloading the Milestone Arcus Surveillance software through the My Cloud App Store, users can install up to 16 cameras, with the first two camera licenses free on My Cloud Business Series products. Additional camera licenses will be available at selected WD authorised distributors.
