Videoloft cloud VMS visual

Offsite cloud storage for Hikvision security systems

From one site to thousands, we've got you covered.

Transform your surveillance system into a Hikvision cloud VMS (video management system) with Videoloft. 

Videoloft is a cloud video surveillance platform that adds secure, offsite backup and storage to legacy & new Hikvision camera installations via the Videoloft Cloud Adapter.

By using Videoloft you’ll be able to view all your Hikvision cameras in one easy to use platform, as well as have the ability to view footage via a local live monitor, via the Videoloft iOS and Android apps, or the browser-based web viewer. Videoloft adds sophisticated features to even the most basic of Hikvision cameras – such as analytics, multi-user permissions, remote camera control and time lapse.

Our Cloud Adapter is available in an 8 or 16 channel version and there’s an Enterprise rack mounted solution for larger installations.

Step 1

We'll send you a Cloud Adapter. It takes just minutes to install via our website, or mobile app.

Step 2

View your camera's live streams and recorded footage 24/7 using the Videoloft web viewer, or mobile app.

Step 3

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

Whether you’re looking to record straight to the cloud, or add cloud backup to your local Hik vision storage, we can help!

Videoloft removes the need for a local NVR – simplifying the installation, saving space on-site and removing the risk of your recorder being damaged or tampered with.

Alternatively, you may still want to keep your Hikvision NVR/DVR and back-up your recorder to the cloud. It takes minutes to set up – all you need to do is connect the Videoloft Cloud Adapter to the same network as your recorder.

Cloud FAQs

What Hikvision camera and recorder models are supported by Videoloft ?

We’ve done a full integration with Hikvision’s API meaning we can support almost all models of Hikvision IP cameras, NVRs and DVRs. The only models we’ve tested that aren’t compatible are the Hikvision doorbell cameras. 

How is Videoloft different from Hik Connect?

The Hikvision app known as Hikvision Connect, connects to the local storage on the camera or recorder. Videoloft, on the other hand, transmits and stores video via the cloud, so if your local storage is tampered with or destroyed, the recorded footage is still accessible via the Videoloft cloud. Not only this, Videoloft offers additional features that aren’t in the HikConnect app, including:

  • Remote viewing of live and upto 4k recorded video
  • Simultaneous multi-site access for an unlimited number of users

How do I connect Hikvision CCTV to cloud?

Setting up Hikvision cloud storage and remote backup can be done in a few minutes using the Videoloft iOS or Android app. Simply use the Videoloft Cloud Adapter, and download our app to get started. The cloud installation process takes minutes, doesn’t require port forwarding, or router configuration and can even be done remotely!

What are the costs for Hikvision cloud storage?

For end-users, cloud storage pricing plans start from just $7.89 / £7.49 per month. We also offer discounted rates for our partners, which can be up to 8 – 10 times cheaper than other cloud providers!

How can I back up my Hikvision NVR to the cloud?

All you need to connect a NVR or DVR to the cloud is the Videoloft Cloud Adapter and the Videoloft mobile app, then follow these simple steps:

  • Connect the Cloud Adapter to the network and power on.
  • Tap ‘Install’ on the main menu to begin and enter the Cloud ID when prompted.
  • When the Cloud Adapter is discovered, it will be linked with the account you’re using to set it up.
  • Tap ‘Continue’ to proceed with the installation and scan the network for compatible recorders
  • Select the required recorder, enter the username and password and you’re all set!

How do I connect my Hikvision camera to the cloud?

You can connect your Hikvision camera to the cloud in a few simple steps using the Videoloft Cloud Adapter:

  • Choose your cloud storage plan
  • Plug in the Cloud Adapter
  • Download the Videoloft app 
  • Find your cameras on the network and connect to the cloud!

Do I need to keep my NVR/DVR or can I record straight to the cloud?

It’s entirely up to you! Some customers use the cloud alongside their local NVR/DVR so they have both local and offsite access. Other customers get rid of the local recorder and record straight to the cloud.

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.
