Cloud CCTV for March Networks Cameras: Compatibility, VMS Integration and Multi-Site Management

written on by Megan Armstrong

TL;DR: March Networks cameras work with SEiNG over ONVIF or RTSP. You keep the cameras you've invested in and get managed UK cloud storage, AI search and every site, and every other camera brand, in one platform.

March Networks cameras are built for demanding, multi-site environments. If you’re reviewing how those cameras are recorded, managed and accessed, the first question is usually compatibility. This guide covers March Networks camera compatibility with SEiNG, how the cameras connect, and what moving to March Networks cloud CCTV changes for your team.

Who are March Networks?

March Networks is a video surveillance and business intelligence company founded in 2000 and headquartered in Ottawa, Canada. It has been owned by Delta Electronics, a Taiwan-based group, since 2021, and in 2026 it merged with VIVOTEK's branded video security business. Its cameras, recorders and software are widely used by banks, retailers and transport operators, which is why so many multi-site businesses already have March Networks cameras installed.

Are March Networks cameras compatible with SEiNG?

Yes. SEiNG works with any camera that supports ONVIF or RTSP, and March Networks cameras are no exception. SEiNG has been tested with the March Networks SE2. If your cameras are a different model, they're very likely to be compatible, and a 30-day free proof of concept lets you confirm it on your own estate.

SEiNG - Cloud CCTV (VSaaS) for UK business, any camera and AI analytics

How March Networks cameras are usually deployed

March Networks cameras are commonly recorded on site, to recorders or a VMS that each location or a central team manages. That gives control, but it also means on-site hardware to maintain, storage limits per recorder, and software to keep updated across every site.

What is SEiNG?

SEiNG is a cloud CCTV platform delivered as a fully managed service (video surveillance as a service, or VSaaS). It connects to the cameras you already have, stores footage securely in UK data centres, and adds AI search, alerts and analytics in one platform you can use from any device. SEiNG is built by Alert Data, is approved on the UK Government's G-Cloud 15 framework, and starts from £5 per camera per month, with a 30-day free proof of concept. For March Networks users, it means keeping the cameras you've invested in while bringing every site, and every other camera brand, into one place.

Remote Access

Does March Networks have its own cloud?

Yes. March Networks CloudSight, launched in 2024, is a camera-to-cloud service built around March Networks' own CS Series cameras and aimed at small and medium-sized businesses. It pairs with Searchlight Cloud for analytics and business intelligence. March Networks also offers Command Enterprise Cloud for large estates.

How SEiNG is different

  • Any brand, one platform. SEiNG isn't tied to one manufacturer. Your existing March Networks cameras sit alongside Axis, Hikvision, Dahua or any other ONVIF or RTSP camera you run, so a mixed estate doesn't need a separate system for each brand.
  • Scales with you. SEiNG is the same platform whether you run a single site or a large multi-site estate, so you never have to move to a different product as you grow. March Networks splits this across CloudSight for SMBs and Command Enterprise Cloud for large enterprises.
  • AI on every camera, whatever the brand. SEiNG's own AI analyses footage in the cloud, so AI search, smart filters, alerts and analytics work on every camera you connect, not just one manufacturer's. It can also link footage to EPOS transactions.
  • Fully managed. The SEiNG team sets up the platform, onboards your sites and users, trains your team, and monitors system health for you.
  • UK cloud storage. Footage is stored in the UK, with unlimited storage priced per camera.
  • A published starting price. From £5 per camera per month, with no upfront costs, licence fees or paid add-ons.

Why move March Networks cameras to the cloud?

Moving March Networks cameras to SEiNG puts every site in one platform, so you can view live and recorded footage from all locations alongside cameras from any other ONVIF or RTSP brand. Footage is held off site in secure UK cloud storage, so it's protected if on-site equipment is damaged or stolen.

Finding footage gets faster too. Smart filters find events in minutes and custom alerts flag what matters: it's CCTV analytics for your March Networks cameras, powered by SEiNG's own AI. Two-factor authentication, single sign-on and user roles control who can see which site. And because SEiNG is fully managed, there's no recording hardware or software for your team to maintain at each location.

March Networks VMS integration: how the connection works

SEiNG takes each camera's video stream over ONVIF or RTSP, so it doesn't depend on a specific recorder or VMS. Cameras connect through the SEiNG Cloud Gateway, a compact plug-and-play device that securely sends streams to the cloud.

  1. Connect the March Networks cameras to the same network as the Gateway (or let the SEiNG team do it).
  2. Configure each camera's stream via ONVIF or RTSP. Our RTSP FAQ explains what's needed.
  3. The Gateway transmits the streams to SEiNG's UK cloud.
  4. Your team logs in to one platform covering every site.

For larger or remote estates, the Gateway offers optional local buffering, bandwidth management for rural or large sites, and an optional dual-network setup for cyber hardening.

A multi-site example

Imagine a hotel group running March Networks cameras across eight venues. Each venue has its own recorder, and the group security lead needs footage from a lobby incident at a site 80 miles away. With SEiNG, they log in once, choose the venue, filter by time and event, and share a secure link with the venue manager — without travelling or waiting for someone on site to export the clip.
