Salient Systems Reviews & Product Details

Salient Systems provides a stable, reliable VMS platform with a straightforward user interface that helps operators learn the system quickly and work efficiently. The platform is flexible and integrates well with a wide range of third-party cameras and the ONVIF protocol, which is especially useful when you need to support existing infrastructure. I also appreciate its scalability, since it can grow as customer needs expand. Overall, it delivers solid recording and playback performance, and the client software feels responsive and is easy to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

System configuration and troubleshooting can sometimes feel less intuitive, particularly in more complex deployments. In larger systems, performance optimization and bandwidth management can also be challenging if the setup isn’t carefully planned and designed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use and customer support. Overall when we needed to make changes the customer support was on point, ready and willing to help. Needed to upgrade and they walked me through. Need to change my entire camera layout, they walked me through it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some systems do not make sense. I want playback with a map, but the map doesn't exist in playback. It was also installed on windows 10 when just a few months later 10 would be depreciated. Nothing terrible, just a confusing decision. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great product and Technical Support. We primarily use it as CompleteView as it integrates into Symmetry or can be used as standalone CCTV system.

Salient integrates with so many camera models/manufacturers and offers such a wide range of options including intelligent video.

Setting the system up and ease of use is a great benefit for us since it reduces our technician onsite time and reduces calls from our end users with questions.

We have customers that use the CompleteView platforms on an everyday bases at multiple locations and are very happy with the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Salient Systems to be an exceptional video surveillance and management solution. It performs exceedingly well and allows for tailoring the user experience to specific roles, such as enabling our main lobbies to access a manageable number of cameras with tailored permissions. The system is impressive in its ability to filter down individual needs and provide oversight perfectly aligned with our business requirements. What truly stands out is Salient's commitment to staying on the cutting edge of technology. This forward-thinking approach supports our environment significantly, enabling us to keep up with emerging technologies without the need for constant market research on our part. Additionally, Salient's software provides tools for efficient user management across various segments and subsegments of our vast organization, making it possible to operate with a single management server while still addressing specific regional and security needs with ease. The setup was straightforward, made smoother by their engineer's direct assistance, and I am fully satisfied with their offerings, enough to highly recommend Salient Systems to colleagues.

I wouldn't mind seeing the capability for the software to hold larger camera layouts without risking lag. We have large monitors in our SOC and some could benefit from larger camera counts in a layout, but once you surpass a certain amount, things may start to move a little slow. I would also like to see an improvement on the playback for dewarped cameras. That can sometimes move a little slow. I would love to see the Quicktrack feature be able to be used for playback video. For example, Quicktrack can stitch together multiple cameras into one video file, almost like editing a movie. But this is only if you see something in real time. I would love the ability to do that with cameras during playback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how simple Salient Systems is to use; it makes my work incredibly easy and straightforward. The direct support from Salient Systems' team to the end user is a huge plus for me personally, ensuring that my issues are promptly attended to. Managing licenses through Salient Systems is amazing, and they offer a wide range of support that I can't find with any other vendors or systems. The Salient employees are fantastic; every time I reach out with an issue, they are highly supportive and quick to resolve my problems, never letting me down. Additionally, the initial setup of Salient Systems was the easiest I have ever experienced, straightforward and pleasing, which I really enjoy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the lack of an AI system within Salient Systems a bit limiting. Having advanced features like analytics would significantly enhance the functionality and provide better insights. Additionally, it would be beneficial to have tools to facilitate license transfers more efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
