Business Security
Small businesses need more than consumer cameras. You need vandal-resistant housings, 30-90 day footage retention, multi-user access with audit trails, and integration with POS systems. Business security cameras must capture faces clearly at register distance, monitor inventory areas, and provide evidence-quality footage for law enforcement and insurance claims. We've selected options that deliver commercial features without enterprise IT department requirements.
Reolink NVR systems are subscription-free. Arlo and Eufy offer business plans.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a DVR/NVR for business cameras?
Highly recommended. NVRs provide centralized management, longer storage, and footage that's harder to steal than cloud-only systems. A 4-camera NVR with 2TB storage costs $300-500 and stores 30-60 days of footage.
How many cameras does a small business need?
Retail: entry, register, inventory, and general floor (4 cameras). Office: entry, server/records room, and parking (3 cameras). Restaurant: entry, register, kitchen, and dining (4 cameras). Scale based on square footage and layout.
