Angelcam pricing and alternatives

This article is about Angelcam pricing and a quick comparison to the competition.

Security camera cloud storage cost is always a concern, so I've tested the Angelcam platform and I now I decided to compare it with 3 other similar services.

If you are looking for Angelcam alternatives, here you can find useful information to make up your mind and pick the one the is right for you.

The competitors are Videoloft, CameraFTP, CamCloud, Ivideon.

Let's start with a price comparison...

Security camera cloud storage cost

Here's a price table for the IP camera cloud recording platform.

The comparison is based on a single IP camera recording for 30 days with a resolution of 720p (1280 x 720)  and 5 FPS (frames per second).

* The price for Videoloft is not disclosed here because of the agreement the company has with its partners, but I promise you that it is worth taking a look at this platform and its advantages (more on that later in this article).

Usually, you can have discounts for paying 1 year in advance. 

Camera cloud recording features

Most of the security camera cloud storage services can record continuously 24x7 or based on motion detection which saves space and time during the search.

Depending on the platform it's possible to share the video with other people by sending a link to a website or by embedding code on a site or blog.

Audio recording is also available depending on the IP camera features.

Mobile App and notification is also something interesting to consider when choosing a security camera cloud storage platform.

Now let's talk about each platform...

Angelcam

Angelcam was founded in 2010 and since then is offering security camera cloud storage for IP cameras and other devices such as DVRs and NVRs.

It's possible to use different IP camera brands and practically there's no limitation as long as the device uses the RTSP protocol and it's not part of a closed system.

Here are some of the Angelcam features:

• Supports 90% of IP camera brands;
• Real-time monitoring;
• View from Desktop & Mobile App;
• Instant alerts via email;

• Playback and export videos;
• Share video evidence;
• Multi-view capabilities;
• Device health check;
• Unlimited amount of video clips;
• Remote access sharing;
• Unlimited Free live monitoring for cameras and doorbells.

The Angelcam platform is very easy and intuitive, you just need to select the type of device your want to connect (IP camera, DVR, NVR, or doorbell).

OK, I think it's enough information about the Angelcam platform, now let's talk about other ones...

Videoloft

This is an excellent alternative to Angelcam.

I've been testing this platform for some time, and I may say it's very good.

Videoloft was created in September 2019 as a professional division of the company Manything which created an app to monitor home back in 2012.

You can use the Videoloft platform to connect to video surveillance devices and record everything in the cloud. It works very well with different brands. 

You can use the Videoloft platform to connect to video surveillance devices and record everything in the cloud. It works very well with different brands. 

At first, the platform is directly compatible with Hikvision devices. Still, you can also use a cloud adapter that is compatible with the ONVIF protocol, thus allowing you to use professional cameras such as Amcrest, Axis, Dahua, Wisenet, etc. 

• Records up to 4K cameras;
• Super easy to setup;
• Supports most IP camera brands;
• Sends alerts via email and push notification
• Quick configuration;
• Real-time monitoring;
• View from Desktop & Mobile App;
• Edge storage (record on the cloud adapter SD card);
• Device health check;
• Send notification alerts;
• Camera control (PTZ;.
• Support to audio.

This is an excellent opportunity for system integrators that want to have recurring revenue. The Videoloft platform allows you to become a partner and offer cloud recording services to your customers under your brand.

I recommend you to try this platform and check what it has to offer.

CamCloud

CamCloud was created with the idea of a do-it-yourself (DIY) cloud video surveillance solution. The idea is to have small businesses that can use the platform without the need of hiring technicians or installers.

The company's main goal is to eliminate complexity and allow the cameras to connect directly to the cloud platform for fast surveillance.

Here are some of the CamCloud's features:

Those are interesting features especially if you are running a small business and want to install and manage the cameras yourself.

Let's move on to the next one...

CameraFTP

The company offers its services to homes and businesses that want to protect people, pets, and important assets at a fair price per camera.

What is really interesting about this platform is that it can work with video recording (which is the main topic of this article) and also FTP recording.

Just in case you want to use the FTP feature on your camera and send images to be stored in the server, the CameraFTP is a great solution.

Back to the security camera cloud storage platform, here are  its features:

• Supports different IP camera brands;
• Records up to 10 years;
• Works with IP cameras and smartphones ;
• Webcam as an IP camera;
• Can use a PC as a recording system;
• DVR cloud storage backup;
• Large scale distributed system;
• Connection for different users; 
• Time-lapse;
• Embed camera on a website;
• Reseller program.
• FTP service.

You can also use your smart device or webcam as a camera.

OK, it's time to talk about the next one...

Ivideon

Ivideon is a company with 10 years of development with customers in more than 130 countries. There are 15 data centers around the world to manage the traffic and store the data of 4 million users.

When talking about security camera cloud storage, this is a company you can trust.

The company offers the service for home and business with local or cloud storage and alert notification to different devices.

Here are some of the Ivideon's features:

• Supports different IP camera brands;
• Uses a local server for recording;
• Works with iOS, Android Windows, Mac, and Linux ;
• Smart notification (reduces false alerts);
• Easy setup;
• Event recording;
• Partner program.

This platform is interesting because it can record the cameras locally in a PC-based DVR and send video to the cloud and that makes the system redundant.

You can also use firmware to upgrade the camera and make it compatible with the platform but that only works with specific brands listed on their site.

Conclusion

It's not easy to choose the perfect security camera cloud storage, and that's the reason I wrote this article based on the Angelcam pricing and the comparison with its competitors so you can have some alternatives.

I've testing different alternatives to Angelcam and Videoloft is the one I like the most because it's very easy to use and has an interesting partnership plan.

I hope the information in this article can help you to choose the best solution.
