1 REVIEW(S)

PÅL HUMBORSTAD

CTO, Triangel Security AS

September 30, 2019

"This is a great tool when dealing with Axis Cameras together with Milestone. I use it all the time. Saves us a lot of work especially when dealing with plugins/applications. Configuring Applications from Milestone Management client is a nice feature. It also gives us the possibility to use "hidden" camera features from the Milestone Smart Client like Wiper/Speed dry/focus recall. "
