XEOMA
Xeoma: for video surveillance and beyond
Xeoma is the video surveillance software for any camera-based project — from basic recording to projects powered by artificial intelligence. Deployed on your computer, it connects to cameras across your network to handle the tasks that matter most to you — from continuous recording and event-triggered notifications to extracting valuable business insights, such as people counting or work time tracking.
Xeoma’s advantages
The software combines extensive capabilities with unique strengths, making it a leader in several segments:

“We have used Xeoma as the core platform for delivering video surveillance services to our enterprise customers. Overall, the system has performed very well—it is stable, reliable, and well received by our clients compared with other platforms currently available in the market. We mainly distribute our own private cloud with the Xeoma white-label solution by deploying the Xeoma client on desktop systems and Android TV boxes. Our enterprise customers have been very satisfied with this approach, particularly due to Xeoma’s strong feature set, which clearly outperforms competing platforms, especially when used through the Xeoma Desktop Client. We have also customized the interface using the white-label tools you provide, which has worked very well for us.”

Bryan Russell, Founder & CEO, Duluth Security Needs Verified purchase
“If I remember correctly, [your support team] told me several times to get ready for the new facial recognition algorithm to be released soon, which I eagerly anticipated. Now, when I saw it accurately recognize my face from almost 50 feet away down the hall—from a dewarped 360-degree camera at a modest 1920×1920 resolution—I immediately knew this was the solution that so many clients and potential clients have been waiting for.”
November 25, 2025
James, Software Developer, Hartford CT Verified purchase
“One of the biggest reasons I chose to use Xeoma is the ability to mix and match cameras from various vendors, including generic and inexpensive (until recently) Chinese brands. Basically, any camera with RTSP should work.
The idea of being locked into one specific video surveillance vendor ecosystem seemed somewhat unattractive to me, so generic NVR software is great to avoid vendor lock-in!”
