About this tool

What it does

Camera Compare compares security cameras from the Awernica product catalog using the manufacturers' published specifications. Without this tool it runs in a limited mode. With Advanced Camera Compare you get:

- Up to 4 cameras at once instead of 2.

- All comparison areas: Overview, Field of View, Analytics & AI, Cybersecurity, Integration, Environment, and Firmware & Lifecycle.

- A fuller overview, adding max. frame rate and power consumption.

- Up to 6 key differences instead of 3.

- The "Best for" panel and the quick verdict.

- An interactive 2D Field of View drawing with a viewing distance of 1 to 200 m.

The comparison areas cover:

- Analytics & AI: analytics applications, AI acceleration and metadata, privacy masking and audio.

- Cybersecurity: device security, trusted hardware and network protection.

- Integration: APIs, protocols, ONVIF, I/O and events.

- Environment: power, operating conditions, protection ratings, dimensions, standards and warranty.

- Firmware & Lifecycle: firmware availability, lifecycle status and support horizon.

Who it is for

Installers, consultants and system owners who need to choose between several camera models and want a full, manufacturer-neutral comparison rather than a short summary.

How to use it

1. Open Camera Compare from the main navigation or the Tools page.

2. Select cameras in the Comparison status card. You can search the product catalog or pick cameras already installed on your sites.

3. Once two cameras are selected, the comparison appears with key differences and one table per area.

4. Use the switch in the status line to show only differences or all rows.

5. For cameras with several lens options, choose the variant on the camera card.

6. At the bottom, use Export PDF, Copy link, Add to Sites or Add to plan.

Good to know

- Comparisons only use published manufacturer data. Missing values are shown as "no data" and are never treated as "not supported".

- The quick verdict does not rank overall camera quality.

- The Image & Lens area is a separate tool: Camera Compare: Image & Lens. The FoV analysis add-ons (overlay, pixel density and DORI) are also separate, through Camera Compare FoV features.

- On phones the tables show two cameras at a time, and arrows choose the pair.

- Export PDF uses your browser's print function.

- Add to plan requires Equipment Plan.
