Can we migrate from on-premise VMS without downtime?

Yes. VMukti offers zero-downtime migration via parallel operation for 2-4 weeks, then cutover in a 1-hour window.

Is on-premise VMS still viable for small deployments?

For small deployments under 500 cameras in stable sites, yes. But growing enterprises with AI needs favor cloud-native solutions.

What legacy VMS features are covered by VMukti cloud?

VMukti covers 100% of standard VMS core functionality plus modern AI enhancements including GenAI search, anomaly detection, and multi-site dashboards.

How does cloud VMS handle internet outages?

VMukti edge devices continue recording locally during outages and automatically sync to cloud when connectivity is restored. No footage is ever lost.
