  1. Who is the first largest DVR manufacturer in the world?

     

    According asmag.com "Security 50 ranking", it is ADT security at the moment.

    Hikvision has been climbing spots 13->12->10 these last 3 years and is the bigest manufacturer in China. It could have its own forum, and I hope it does sometime...

     

     

    The question was who is the largest DVR manufacturer in the world.Asmag is for any kind of security company.


  2. "I agree with the idea.Hikvision provide very good free software for their capture cards and dvr`s and ip cameras like iVMS-2000 "

     

     

    I also would like to see a Hikvision forum.

     

    However, I disagree with your statement about their software being "very good". I have a Hikvision 8016 stand alone DVR and I've never been able to get the software to work. My IT person and I have spent many hours trying to resolve the 'no video problem'. Hikvision-USA tech support is basically non-existent because of the language barrier. In fact, the language issues with their tech support are the worst I've ever experienced and I've been a technician for 25 years.

     

    The 8016 works perfectly with a monitor connected directly to the DVR and the computer talks to the DVR but the Hikvision software just won't access the video on the DVR. When I complained to the company where I purchased the DVR, they said they have the same problems and reiterated my experiences of terrible Hikvision tech support.

     

    I'm sure their technicians know their stuff, but if they can't communicate it to the customer, they're not very helpful.

     

    So, to help the customers resolve their own technical problems, we need a Hikvision forum.

     

     

    We communicate with the European support and never had a problem.We get respond by email in less than hour.


  3. There is a special software for the capture card of Hikvision called iVMS-2000.It supports every product of Hik - cards,dvr,ip cameras and servers.iVMS-4000 and iVMS-4500(iPhone,Windows Mobile,Java) are client software that can be used to connect to iVMS-2000 or every network enabled device -DVR or IP Cam.All of the software is free,user friendly,multi monitor support is available,automatically adjust to screen resolution - Full HD capable and last Hikvision is always developing its software.
