Cloud VMS feature
Most integrators earn project revenue: install the system, get paid, move on. iFovea cloud VMS changes this permanently – every camera installation becomes a monthly cloud subscription you collect indefinitely, under your own brand, at 100% of the revenue.

FAQ
Do I need technical knowledge to set up the platform?
Minimal. Camera connection uses either the iFovea Push Installer software or the iFovea Gateway device. The admin portal guides through client account setup. Most integrators complete their first client deployment in under a day.
What differentiates iFovea from Verkada or Eagle Eye Networks for integrators?
iFovea is the only platform offering full white-label with 100% revenue kept at a flat annual fee. Verkada does not offer white-label. Eagle Eye does not offer white-label. Both use revenue-share or margin reseller models, not the flat-fee model that protects integrator margins as scale grows.
