NICE Showcases NiceVision Net 2.5


NICE Systems Ltd. recently announced that it will be showcasing the latest version of its IP video surveillance solution, NiceVision Net 2.5 at IFSEC.

NiceVision Net 2.5, an enterprise-class, open-platform IP video surveillance solution, addresses the needs of security conscious organizations that are seeking to deploy IP video surveillance. The new version continues to address the specific needs of security operators, IT administrators and integrators, with a multi-tier and IT-friendly offering. Furthermore, the combination of flexible software and turnkey solutions with open standard support and leading video recording performance capabilities enables organizations to extract security and business insights from both IP and analog video surveillance cameras and other integrated devices.

The new additions to NiceVision Net 2.5 include:

Video Management Enhancements: providing multiple display screens, intuitive 3D visual navigation and a new event management interface to better support collaborative response. These capabilities help improve the quality and speed of critical decision making and investigation with powerful automation features and situation management capabilities.

Extracting Security and Business Insights: automatic Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) tracking allows for improved performance of NICE's Perimeter Intrusion Detection (PIDS) applications for rapid response of security breaches. These new enhancements are part of NICE's field-proven video analytics capabilities.

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Improvements: are achieved by an industry leading recording throughput of up to 512 mega bits per second, per server. These high throughput levels reduce the number of recording servers that are required and lower correlating operating costs. Furthermore, innovative, patent-pending video compression mechanisms enable lowered storage requirements.

Enhanced Open and IT Friendly Capabilities: include compliance with Open Network Video Interface Forum (ONVIF) standards, and support for web and Smartphone connectivity, such as Blackberry, Android, iPhone, and others.

Easy IP Migration: is enabled by a smart hybrid video recorder that supports both IP and analog cameras. Centralized video processing and analysis capabilities enable customers to extract maximum value from their existing infrastructure by leveraging features such as automatic visual parameter optimization for analog cameras and camera tampering detection.

Israel Livnat, President, Security Group, said, "The enhancements in NiceVision Net 2.5 enable for the industry leading performance of video surveillance, addressing some of the most pressing needs of today's security professionals. It is a flexible video solution that can accommodate hybrid environments while enabling a smooth and cost efficient migration to a pure IP video surveillance ecosystem. Furthermore, it can help gather and leverage security and business insights from their video surveillance implementation. Such insights can help them improve people and assets protection and operations. The latest version also helps improve efficiency to achieve a lowered Total Cost of Ownership for a cost effective and environment-friendly solution."

  • The Evolution of IP Camera Intelligence

    As the 30th anniversary of the IP camera approaches in 2026, it is worth reflecting on how far we have come. The first network camera, launched in 1996, delivered one frame every 17 seconds—not impressive by today’s standards, but groundbreaking at the time. It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
