I don't know why most manufacturers (camera ones or even VMS) follow the path of HW because the future is SW. Building a NVR is no added value, nothing that we did not see already. Developing SW is adding value to HW, that's where the industry is moving. In addition, to copy a SW is not that easy as copying a NVR or whatever server.
My 2 cents...

But do the big name NVRs that you refer to also feature seamless single manufacturer lock-in? Or is that what differentiates the Axis' offering?
