QNAP upgrades its surveillance system with centralized management, AI functions, and cloud storage. Existing users receive additional free channels upon upgrading.
QNAP launches a new surveillance system called QVR Surveillance. The platform replaces earlier solutions such as QVR Pro and QVR Elite, and can support up to 1,024 camera channels via a single NAS system. The solution targets both small installations and large-scale surveillance environments.
The new system includes license-free AI functions such as facial recognition, people flow counting, and smart search functions based on events. Management of multiple NAS systems and camera streams across multiple locations is also centralized and without additional licenses.
Cloud Connection
Users can store their footage via myQNAPcloud Surveillance. This service is exclusively available for the new QVR Surveillance platform and is not compatible with earlier versions. QVR Surveillance works with over 8,000 different cameras from more than 200 brands via the ONVIF standard. Footage is better protected against file corruption through a built-in protection mechanism for abnormal system events.

QVR Surveillance also supports the QVR Recording Vault for backing up to an external video server. This allows organizations to meet compliance requirements for long-term storage.
Transition and Availability
New users start with two standard channels and receive six additional free channels after registration. Existing QVR Elite users can upgrade their installation to QVR Surveillance and retain their licenses, also receiving six additional free channels after registration. QVR Pro users can transfer their licenses but need to reconfigure their setup.
QVR Surveillance version 3.0.0 is available through QNAP’s App Center. Licenses are available via the QNAP Software Store.
