Open Source vs PRO

Capability Comparison

Dimension Open Source PRO
Protocols Mainstream live protocol support Broader enterprise matrix and extended protocol coverage
Decode Performance WASM + hardware fallback SIMD + multithread decoding and stronger high-load stability
Controls & UX Standard playback controls PTZ, advanced controls, watermark suite, and richer UI modules
Operations Basic integration and troubleshooting Diagnostics, runtime insights, and enterprise-level tooling

Major PRO-Only Capability Families

  • High-performance decode stack: SIMD, multithreading, expanded rendering pipelines.
  • Enterprise stream scope: richer live protocols, encrypted streams, advanced replay modes.
  • Control and UX modules: PTZ, custom controls, N×N multi-view orchestration.
  • Operational feature set: diagnostic telemetry, watermark systems, advanced recording matrix.
  • AI and industry workflows: object/face checks, anomaly inspection, protocol-specific integrations.
