The Milestone Solutions Partner Program enables system integrators and equipment manufacturers to develop security or other business solutions that are integrated with the Milestone IP video management platform. The MSP program offers access to the Milestone SDK with APIs for making integrations, programming support and marketing cooperation.

“Milestone continues to be a leading partner and, as one of the early pioneers in the open-systems model, is an ideal partner for Pivot3,” said Lee Caswell, co-founder and chief marketing officer of Pivot3. ”The cooperative work we are doing with Milestone allows our joint worldwide customers to take advantage of Milestone’s leading-edge video surveillance applications with the added safety of proven, highly scalable storage from Pivot3.”
