Everything Needed for a Modern Surveillance Deployment
UniFi Protect brings together cameras, recording, management software, and event awareness into one platform that can scale from a focused installation to a broader commercial deployment.
Cameras
Coverage at the Edge
Use UniFi cameras to cover entrances, common areas, perimeter zones, work areas, and other important spaces.
Recording
Retention & Playback
Support practical retention goals, organized playback review, and the recorder capacity needed for the deployment.
Software
Central Management
Manage cameras, live view, playback, detections, and device status from one organized interface.
Awareness
Alarm Manager Workflows
Add another layer of site awareness with notifications, events, and operational workflows tied to important activity.
Explore the experience
Explore the UniFi Protect Experience
These are some of the qualities businesses often value most when they choose a modern UniFi Protect deployment.
Clean day-to-day operation
A more polished interface helps users move between live view, playback, devices, and system awareness with less friction.
Built for expansion
Start with the right camera count and recording plan today, then grow the system as properties or requirements evolve.
Access when you need it
Authorized users can quickly review live video, playback, and activity without being tied to a single workstation.
Better operational awareness
Alarm Manager and event-driven awareness create a stronger operational layer around the most important activity on site.
How we design the system
Design & deployment process
From Site Review to a Complete UniFi Protect Deployment
Our project workflow turns the selected UniFi Protect components into a complete, practical surveillance deployment.
01
Site Assessment
Review entrances, interior spaces, perimeter areas, lighting conditions, existing cabling, and the locations where incidents are most likely to occur.
02
Camera Placement
Select the camera style, mounting position, viewing angle, and image objective for each zone rather than using one camera type everywhere.
03
Recording & Retention
Calculate recorder capacity and storage based on camera count, resolution, frame rate, motion activity, and required retention.
04
Network & PoE Planning
Confirm switch capacity, PoE budget, uplinks, network segmentation, and future expansion so the surveillance system remains reliable.
05
User Access & Alerts
Define who can view cameras, review footage, receive notifications, manage devices, and use Alarm Manager workflows.
06
Installation & Handover
Install, aim, test, document, and train the customer so the final system is ready for everyday operation and future service.

- Good fit for multi-site growth
Stronger event visibility
Alarm Manager and event-based workflows help teams respond faster and stay more informed about important site activity.
- Event-triggered awareness workflows
- Helpful notifications and escalations
- Better visibility around priority events
Existing camera systems
Service and Support for Installed Surveillance Platforms
Horizon continues to service existing camera, DVR, and NVR systems. When the installed platform is still practical, we help stabilize it. When it is time to modernize, we help plan a cleaner path toward UniFi Protect.
