Undisclosed Manufacturer #1
"However, until now, FLIR has never had an enterprise VMS to pull together an end-to-end solution."
Not entirely accurate. FLIR acquired 360Surveillance and their Cameleon VMS around 2007 if I am not mistaken. That acquisition also came with the Puretech Video Analytics solution. Very similar to the DVTEL/ioi acquisition.

Why do VMS companies insist on making their software look like it belongs on a Windows 95 PC. You would think for $100M you could get an updated GUI.

So is Classic the same as Elite except you are allowed more channels?
In other words, is it just plain idiotic to have a 50 camera Elite system, (that you don't plan on growing)?

Is that to say that DVTel's hardware offerings did not contribute much to DVTel's success and value, or rather that FLIR (specifically) has no need for them?
