   Terrible Experience

   I have tried this software and it was the worst experience I have had. First, I had so much trouble connecting up my IP Cameras. I would error messages multiple times and the application kept crashing. Once I finally got everything up and running, I would periodically loose connection to my cameras. I had contacted customer support regarding my issues and they would never respond. There are many other better products than Blue Iris.

• Which Security Cameras?

  I use Annke (rebranded HikVision, and firewalled off from the Internet) and Eufy cameras in non-cloud (RTSP) mode. I use Blue Iris[1] as an NVR. I also run Skrypted[2] container on my Synology that concurrently makes me able to use HomeKit Secure Video. I've been using this setup for years. I kinda miss the ease of the cloud, but love the configurability and modularity. 1. https://blueirissoftware.com/ . Blue Iris... - Source: Hacker News / 6 days ago

• Security cams

  Frigate https://frigate.video/ and ZoneMinder https://zoneminder.com/ come to mind. Blue Iris https://blueirissoftware.com/ is not open source but is what I prefer to use for my PoE systems ($80/yr). Source: 7 months ago

• unable to activate-- blueirissoftware.com down?

  I've had BI running for years-- something went haywire with my setup this morning and now I need to re-activate my license. However, I'm unable to do so within BI, and it appears that blueirissoftware.com is down. Anyone else having issues or know what's going on? Source: 12 months ago

• Trying to get a Blue Iris license - no response from IPcam-central

  Blue Iris' official site is blueirissoftware.com and the company is Perspective Software. Source: about 1 year ago

• Looking for an alternative

  Could look into a diy solution like https://blueirissoftware.com/ See what cameras are compatible. Might be some Ethernet based or wifi based cameras out there that would do what you need. Keeps it all local no clouds. Source: about 1 year ago

• Platform.sh vs Pantheon

  I personally *like* platform.sh better as a development tool but it's hard to make a strong objective case one way or the other. Source: about 1 year ago

• Why does Acquia cost more than Pantheon?

  With all that said... There will ALWAYS be edge case scenarios where Pantheon DOESN'T work, But I'm sure that would happen with Acquia also. Or platform.sh... Source: over 1 year ago

• Why does Acquia cost more than Pantheon?

  There's also https://platform.sh/ -- I think of them as a trio. How do they compare with the other two? Source: over 1 year ago
