Plate recognition is not an add-on
VISEC reads plates at over 100 kph in more than 80% of the world's countries, included in every license, even the free one camera license.
Alternative · free on one camera, for life
A Milestone XProtect alternative.
Milestone XProtect is enterprise video management software and a very capable one. If your site is smaller than its licensing model assumes, VISEC does the same core job on a single Windows PC with plate recognition already included.

- Plate recognition, QR and access controlBuilt in, even on the free license.
- Secret modeOne hotkey hides VISEC completely; the same hotkey brings it back.
- No cloud, no subscriptionRecordings stay on your PC. More cameras are a one-time purchase.
Questions
Switching: quick answers.
Will my cameras work?
If they are ONVIF IP cameras, very likely: VISEC works with 99% of them and finds them with a scan. Analog cameras connect through a video server.
Can I run both while I compare?
Yes. Cameras can often serve more than one system at once, so install VISEC alongside and test a single camera first.
Is that a fair comparison?
For a large multi-site deployment with a dedicated team, XProtect is built for exactly that. For one site that wants recording, alerts and plate reading, VISEC is the simpler answer.
