Milestone Systems has announced the release of XProtect 2023 R3, the new version of its highly scalable, flexible, data-driven video management software (VMS).

According to the company, this update builds on XProtect’s open platform technology with new capabilities that increase operational efficiency, enhance collaboration and provide tighter system control.

VMS key features

Milestone says that some of the main features of the new version are:

• Onboarding feature guide: this built-in feature in the Web Client presents operators with information on how the Web Client is structured. This helps operators be more efficient, making onboarding of new employees easier and faster
• Role-based alarm notifications: users can now create alarm notification profiles that route alerts to specific operators based on their function. This prevents alarm fatigue by only sending relevant alarms to each user and helps operators focus on what really matters. Response times improve by putting critical alerts immediately in the right hands

In addition to these features, the 2023 R3 update contains a wide array of other enhancements, including cybersecurity hardening, improved VMS resilience and expanded integrations with third-party systems via XProtect’s open API architecture, the company says.

XProtect users under current Milestone Care can download the 2023 R3 update at no additional cost.
