How Dahua cloud storage works

Build your custom cloud plan

Add your sites and cameras in minutes – or let us handle the setup for you.

Connect your Dahua cameras

Get up and running in as little as 5 minutes with the plug and play Videoloft Cloud Adapter.

Take full control of your security

Monitor all your cameras in one place, unlock powerful AI features, manage user access, and view footage remotely anytime, from anywhere.

Add cloud to your Dahua NVR/DVR, or replace it completely

Videoloft allows you to record CCTV footage straight to the cloud bypassing your local Dahua storage. This saves space on-site and removes the risk of your recorder being damaged or tampered with.

Alternatively, you may still want to keep your Dahua NVR/DVR and back-up your recorder to the cloud so you have remote access to it. Either way, it takes minutes to set up – all you need to do is connect the Videoloft Cloud Adapter to the same network as your recorder.

Dahua cloud FAQs

What Dahua camera and recorder models are supported by Videoloft?

We’ve integrated with Dahua’s API meaning we can support almost all models of Dahua IP cameras, NVRs and DVRs.

How do I connect my Dahua DVR to cloud storage?

Connect your Dahua DVR or NVR to the cloud using a Videoloft Cloud Adapter. Setup can be completed through the Videoloft web VMS or mobile app in just a few minutes, with no port forwarding or complex router configuration required. It can also be completed remotely, making it easier to connect recorders across multiple locations.

What are the costs for Dahua cloud storage?

Dahua cloud storage pricing depends on factors including recording type, resolution and retention period. Visit our pricing page to explore your options and calculate the cost for your cameras.

Enterprise pricing and discounted rates are also available for security professionals and partners.

How is Videoloft different from the Dahua DMSS app?

Videoloft is a true cloud solution, it transmits and stores video via the cloud – so if your recorder is compromised your recorded footage is still accessible via the Videoloft cloud. The Dahua DMSS app only connects to the local storage which means that if your recorder is stolen or damaged you won’t be able to access any footage.

How can I access my Dahua NVR/DVR remotely?

To connect a Dahua NVR or DVR to the cloud, you’ll need a Videoloft Cloud Adapter. Setup can be completed through the Videoloft web VMS or mobile app:

  • Connect the Cloud Adapter to the network and power it on.
  • Sign in to Videoloft and select Install.
  • Enter the Cloud ID to link the Cloud Adapter to your account.
  • Scan the network for compatible recorders.
  • Select your Dahua NVR or DVR and enter its username and password.

Once connected, footage from the recorder can be securely stored in the cloud and accessed remotely through the Videoloft web VMS or mobile app.

I'm based in the United States of America, how long will it take for my Cloud Adapter to arrive?

On average, it takes 2-3 working days for our Cloud Adapters to reach customers in the USA.
