Eagle Eye Cloud VMS - $5 Per Camera Per Month

Author: John Honovich, Published on Jan 22, 2014

A startup launched by the founder of Baracuda, a networking company worth more than a billion dollars, is taking aim at the video surveillance market. The new company, Eagle Eye Networks is releasing cloud based video management. Unlike many of the early expensive, consumer focused startups, Eagle Eye is targeting the enterprise market with plans starting at $5 per camera per month, a remarkably low price. In this note, we dig into their competitive positioning.

[UPDATE: See IPVM test results of Eagle Eye's Cloud VMS.]
