The NAS stays storage
Record on the PC and point VISEC at a mapped network drive, so the NAS keeps doing what it is good at.
Alternative · free on one camera, for life
A QNAP QVR Pro alternative.
QVR Pro turns a QNAP NAS into a recorder, with a number of channels bundled and more licensed per channel. If the NAS is better used as storage than as the recorder, VISEC does the recording on a Windows PC and can still write to the NAS.

Why people switch
When VISEC is the better fit.
Camera count by tier, not per channel
Licenses cover a number of cameras in one purchase rather than channel by channel.
Plate recognition is not an add-on
It reads plates at over 100 kph in more than 80% of the world's countries, included even in the free one camera license.
Everything in the free license.

- 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 move across?
If they are ONVIF IP cameras, very likely: VISEC works with 99% of them and finds them with a scan.
Can it record straight to the NAS?
Yes, to a mapped drive. A wired connection is worth having if several cameras are writing at once.
Does the PC need to stay on?
Yes. VISEC records on the PC, so it needs to be running - most people use a machine that stays on anyway.
