Compare whole-of-service costs, not only camera purchase prices. Compatibility, site layout, network access and support needs vary.
Can existing cameras be reused?
Usually, if they are IP cameras with a reachable recorder and suitable views. A remote camera review checks access, coverage and integration needs before a quote.
What drives cost
Camera and zone counts, number of centres, network setup and gaps in coverage affect scope. Avoid assuming every camera needs replacement or that every site costs the same.
Storage
Footage stays on your existing NVR, subject to your service's CCTV policy and retention settings. The supervision layer does not require cloud video storage.
Local processing
After a remote camera review, each centre receives a preconfigured device. Connect it to the network and it's running. One-off setup depends on the site review.
Software and support
The per-centre monthly subscription includes AI-assisted supervision alerts and support. Ask for a written scope covering selected cameras, zones, integration and ongoing service.
Multi-centre pricing
A reduced per-centre rate is available for groups. Compare each site's camera and network requirements while using a consistent oversight approach.
Start with one centre
A first-centre review can clarify coverage and setup scope before a wider group discussion. Request an indicative estimate below; it is not a binding quote.
Where technology helps
SooperVision adds AI-assisted alerts to existing CCTV to help educators identify defined supervision risks. It supports active supervision and does not replace educators.
