Spreadsheets and portals.
Or one place for every site.
Most service teams keep their installed base in a spreadsheet and check each manufacturer's portal by hand. It works until it does not.
What changes
The manual workflow breaks quietly. Awernica keeps it current.
Every brand has its own portal, its own PDF format and its own way of announcing end of life.

FAQ
Questions
Do I still need the manufacturer portals?
Yes, for downloads, licences and support cases. Awernica links to each manufacturer's official resources and keeps the lifecycle, firmware and specification overview across manufacturers in one place.
Does Awernica connect to my cameras or network?
No. You register the devices you have installed. Awernica never connects to your cameras, recorders or network, so there is nothing to install or open in a firewall.
What does it cost to stop using the spreadsheet?
You can start with a free account. Basic covers one site; Pro covers many sites and customers. You pay only for the sites you run.
Who can see my sites?
Only your account and the people you invite. Privacy Mode hides sensitive site details and keeps less data on record.
