Diamond CMS + Software || DSS Express Licenses

Diamond CMS + Software || DSS Express Licenses

Main strategy:

  • Mainly recommend Windows based Pure Software(DSS EXPRESS V8/DSS PRO V8), then all-in-one (DSS4004-S2/DSS7016DR-S2 server+software, Linux based).
  • Focus on SMB scenario, mainly recommend DSS Express V8, then DSS-4004-S2.
  • Focus on  mid-scale and large scale project scenario, mainly recommend DSS Pro V8, then DSS-7016-S2.

DSS EXPRESS V8:

  • Support all AI cameras and AI functions, Entrance & Exit application
  • 64ch free (you don’t need to purchase base )
  • Max support 8ch LPR, 8ch FR (buy entrance/exit license)
  • 7 days storage, data will be covered after 7 days. Customer can purchase 1ch video license to activate 200GB storage function and NetworkVideoDecoder video wall function(not M70).
  • Max 256 video channels, 64 doors, and 256 video intercoms, 8 LPR-ch, 8 FR-ch.

Notes for DSS EXPRESS V8:

1)    AI function and LPR application are superior than SmartPSS, suggest customers switch to DSS EXPRESS V8 to better support HNC3Ixx/HNC5Ixx AI cameras, which can effectively gain AI cameras’ sales.

2)    If customer pursue big storage more than 200GB, they can purchase a NVR to work with DSS EXPRESS.

3)    DSS EXPRESS V7 human temp monitoring version still available, purchase base license.

4)    Don’t support POS, if need to support POS, move to DSS PRO V8

5)    More than 64ch project, just buy video channel license per channel. No FR-ch-license or LPR-ch-license any more.

6)    If involving LPR camera, and if customer needs entrance&exit application (entrance/exit management, parking lot management), need to purchase entrance/exit license, otherwise only liveview can be supported.
