Nx Witness + Milesight OpenVision: An All-in-One Approach to Modern Video Surveillance
2 minute read

The Nx Witness + Milesight OpenVision solution streamlines the path to modern video surveillance, combining the simplicity of an all-in-one system with the flexibility of an open platform.
Network Optix has partnered with
Milesight to deliver a streamlined, all-in-one video surveillance solution designed to simplify deployment and reduce infrastructure complexity for modern environments. The joint solution combines Nx Witness Video Management System (VMS) with Milesight OpenVision hardware, offering a ready-to-deploy alternative to traditional server-based and closed surveillance systems.

For organizations and managed service providers, this is the fastest way to deploy managed video — no dedicated servers, no legacy infrastructure, and no proprietary lock-in.

By embedding Nx Witness Enterprise directly within Milesight OpenVision devices, the solution eliminates the need for dedicated NVRs and complex on-site infrastructure. Video management, storage, and analytics are handled directly at the edge, enabling organizations to deploy enterprise-grade surveillance systems in minutes while maintaining centralized, cloud-managed oversight.

This approach is well-suited for distributed environments, temporary or mobile deployments, and locations with limited power or network connectivity, where simplicity and flexibility are critical.

Our goal has always been to remove unnecessary barriers to deploying and scaling video systems,” said James Cox, VP of Business Development at Network Optix. “By working closely with Milesight and embedding Nx Witness directly into the OpenVision Series, we’re delivering an all-in-one solution that offers the simplicity many organizations are looking for, without sacrificing flexibility, control, or scalability.”

An Open Alternative to Closed Surveillance Platforms

While many all-in-one surveillance solutions rely on proprietary ecosystems, the Nx Witness platform is open by design, giving organizations full control over their deployments and the freedom to scale or adapt systems over time. The Nx Witness + Milesight solution delivers the convenience of an integrated system while avoiding vendor lock-in, a key consideration for both enterprises and managed service providers.

Milesight’s OpenVision Series was built to address real-world deployment challenges,” said Prince Cai, VP of Milesight Security. “By embedding Nx Witness directly into our devices, we’re delivering a true plug-and-play experience that simplifies installation, strengthens system stability, and enables intelligent video processing at the edge.

Designed for Speed, Simplicity, and Scale

The OpenVision Series features low-power, compact designs engineered for demanding environments, including off-grid and space-constrained installations. With Nx Witness embedded at the core, systems can rapidly scale from single locations to large, multi-site environments, all managed through a unified interface.

By combining Nx Witness Enterprise with Milesight’s OpenVision hardware, Network Optix and Milesight are delivering a practical, cloud-ready surveillance solution that prioritizes ease of deployment, operational flexibility, and long-term scalability.
