How SEiNG compares to typical cloud CCTV
Cloud CCTV pricing varies a lot by provider. Here’s what’s different about ours. New to cloud CCTV? Here’s how it works.
| Typical cloud CCTV | SEiNG | |
|---|---|---|
| Features | Premium features often sit in higher tiers or cost extra | Every feature included in one per-camera price |
| Cameras | Full features often need the provider’s own hardware | Any ONVIF or RTSP camera, new or existing |
| Extra hardware | A bridge, connector or on-site recorder is usually required | None for direct IP cameras; a small gateway only for older systems |
| Management | You get the software; your team runs it | Fully managed: set-up, monitoring, updates and support |
| Where footage lives | Varies by provider and region | UK data centre, GDPR-compliant |
| Contract | Multi-year licences, often paid upfront | Typically 36 months, with flexibility to suit you |

FAQs about Cloud CCTV pricing
The cost of cloud CCTV for your business depends on several factors: whether you need new cameras, how many cameras you have, the video resolution, retention period, cloud storage, and whether you choose a managed service or a self-managed platform.
Many providers charge a subscription per camera, often covering storage, software updates, and support. For larger deployments, costs scale with the number of cameras and the amount of data retained. Managed VSaaS services, such as SEiNG, can reduce hidden expenses like IT staffing and system maintenance.
Choosing a provider that can work with your existing cameras rather than requiring new ones can also lower costs significantly.
Some providers, like Verkada, require proprietary hardware and charge both upfront fees and ongoing subscription costs. Others, such as SEiNG, have no upfront costs and work with the cameras you have — you simply pay a subscription starting from £5 per month.
Your TCO includes not just any hardware you need upfront, but also ongoing costs such as maintenance and upgrades.
On-prem systems charge large, upfront costs (CapEx) for hardware like cameras and servers, then additional fees throughout the lifetime of your system for patches and updates. The burden of managing your on-prem CCTV system is usually on your internal IT team, as is setting up your users and troubleshooting - all of which takes time. Hardware like servers need replacing every few years, so you face these high costs again and again.
Cloud CCTV operates on an OpEx model, charging regular, predictable subscription payments that include:
- New cameras (if needed - this cost is eliminated if you choose a system that works with your existing security cameras)
- Compliant Cloud storage
- Feature and security updates
- Installation and setup (if you have a managed Cloud solution)
- Proactive system health monitoring and troubleshooting (managed Cloud solutions
With a true-Cloud solution, no hardware is needed which saves your IT maintenance time and cost.
All of this considered, Cloud systems often come out with a lower TCO compared to on-prem systems.
Cloud CCTV is ideal if you want:
- Remote access to footage from anywhere, on any device
- Automatic software updates and security patches
- Flexible scaling for multiple locations or growing teams
- Reduced IT burden — less time spent managing servers and storage
- Advanced features like AI analytics, motion detection, and automated alerts
It’s particularly useful for businesses with small or stretched IT teams, multi-site operations, or those who want reliable, always-on monitoring without managing the infrastructure themselves.
Key factors include:
- Whether new cameras are required or not
- Number of cameras and coverage area
- Video resolution and frame rate
- Data retention period (how long footage is stored)
- Cloud storage location and security standards
- Analytics and AI features (people counting, motion alerts)
- Whether the service is managed or self-managed
SEiNG starts at £5/month. As a fully managed Video Surveillance as a Service (VSAAS) platform, it includes set-up, onboarding, training, system health monitoring, maintenance and upgrades. It works with your existing cameras so there's no need to rip and replace (unless you need to), saving you money and downtime.
Other Cloud solutions can cost more when they require you to purchase their branded cameras and have tiered subscription pricing, so you have to pay more to unlock certain features.
Everything, with no upfront costs and no tiers. That means onboarding and training, installation or integration of your cameras, proactive system health monitoring, secure UK storage, automatic updates and new features, and ongoing support. You also get full use of the platform, including all AI-backed analytics, and as many users as you need, secured with MFA, SSO and role-based access.
Our pricing is bespoke, because it depends on your setup: things like your camera spec, the deployment method, how many cameras and sites you have, and how long you keep footage. But we can get ballpark pricing to you quickly. Just tell us roughly how many cameras and sites you have.
Contracts are typically 36 months, but we can be flexible to suit your business. Just let us know what you need when you request your quote.
Nothing changes: your service simply continues as normal for as long as you keep your subscription. If you ever choose to leave (which doesn’t happen often), we’ll help you export your data and arrange the return of any gateways. There’s no vendor lock-in.
Yes. It’s easy to export your footage and cases, and we can provide a user export too. Because SEiNG works with standard ONVIF and RTSP cameras, you’re never locked in to our hardware either.
Yes. We offer a 30-day free trial, so you can see SEiNG working with your own cameras before you commit. Start your free trial.
No. SEiNG works with any ONVIF or RTSP camera, new or old, so you can keep the cameras you already have. See supported cameras. If you’d like new cameras, we have an affordable range, and the cost can be added to your subscription or paid upfront.
Traditional on-premise CCTV is a Capital Expenditure (CapEx): you pay a large sum upfront for recorders, storage and infrastructure. Cloud CCTV like SEiNG is an Operating Expenditure (OpEx): a predictable subscription on flexible terms, with no upfront capital cost. That makes it easier to budget for and quicker to get approved and running.
On top of the upfront hardware, you need to budget for ongoing support and maintenance, running costs such as power and cooling, operating system upgrades and security patches, plus staff time to manage it all. With SEiNG, these are all covered by your subscription.
Yes. Growing an on-premise system means buying more hard drives, recorders and sometimes new cameras. With SEiNG you simply add cameras, sites or storage as you need them, and your subscription adjusts. There’s no new infrastructure to buy or manage.
