Superb software add-ons created here in the UK
The ZipVision Client Software supplied FREE with every ZipNVR / ZipDVR is easy to use and offers a comprehensive method of managing your CCTV system.
There are times though when you only need a simple function and don't want to give a full user license to a member of your family or workforce. For these occasions we've developed a number of stand-alone widgets that offer a simple feature without a full install.
