The Axxon One software package enables the user to accomplish a wide spectrum of tasks, as it works both with digital equipment and with analog video cameras (through video capture cards), and also makes it possible to create a hybrid security system containing both kinds of equipment.



The modern and constantly expanding feature set of Axxon One allows implementing new video surveillance functionality that increases the convenience and precision of protection at end-user sites.
