Very passionate partner

Comments: I'm was searching for a software with count people capabilities, and good accuracy for a accessible price. Camlytics is the one!

Pros:

Ability to count people and API give the information that I need when I need, with stability.

Cons:

Grid view are very limited to 16 cameras, and the grid usability is very bad. That makes the impression, at the begining of software use, gives impression that is not a good one.

Little support

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: When I bought the license, I figured I'd have a great solution to my problem. Basically, count cars and pedestrians in a corner. As it is an advertising panel, there is no niggling making control, my idea was a mini pc, running camlitycs and sending the results to remote mysql. Once there, the customer would have access to information via website What stopped me was the lack of support, I found in gitub a tool that I understood would do this, but when asking for help, I received one we were not the ones we did ... well, the client, a major advertising company in the region, waited for me for a few months ... I think I lost the client.

Pros:

easy to use, even for beginners, make a csv files

Cons:

I needed a support, since my client did not want to have the system installed in his house and only receive the results on his site. I tried for a few times access, but I was always answered with standard response

Does what I need it to do

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: We are tracking data of drive-thru cars to our Customer Service Center. Camlytics does exactly what I need in counting, logging, reporting, and exporting to CSV for data analysis.

Pros:

Easy to configure. Very accurate in counting traffic. Easy reporting functions and export to CSV.

Cons:

Wouldn't count cars in a drive-thru from a camera mounted on the side of building which was at an angle to the cars. Once positioned overhead, perpendicular to the drive it works perfectly.

Excellent overall value

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: I use it for traffic counting in a retail chain with more than 10 locations. We aggregate the data in a DB then. It works marvelously.

Pros:

The flexibility of the software, especially using webhooks has become invaluable.

Cons:

Setup can be a bit clunky, but once you've done one or two it's rather straightforward.

Camlytics Review

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: I use it to count the number of persons that go in the shop each day to calculate a conversion ratio.

Pros:

I did exactly what I wanted, and it's easy to use.

Cons:

The licensing. The laptop I was running it on crashed and then I had to move it to a new laptop and that required a talk with customer support.

Camlytics review

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: One of the favourite things that happened was that the Camlytics team was able to add a custom feature that we requested. I am still very thankful for that.

Pros:

It is relatively affordable compared to other solutions which also try to sell you hardware. It's also flexible enough for a variety of use-cases.

Cons:

Sometimes it's not intuitive or obvious to use. It takes time to figure it out. The data outputs could be more customizable. It also occasionally crashed or didn't want to read certain cameras, but overall this was not too bad.

Conditionally good. Not for professional or complicated use

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: I was trying to use Camlytics for trafic statistics on highway. I ended up using no Camlytics as it was not delivering exact or close enough to exact results.
Let's be honest - for price Camlytics is sold it is good enough tool, you need to play to tune all cameras to work fine for Camlytics. Professional tools cost thousands, so if you want your "private" statistics it is good. I am afraid it won't suite professional needs.

Pros:

Easy setup, free demo, quite easy to learn. Works relatively good on well prepared camera angle and area.

Cons:

Two persons or cars passing in same time mangled into one. Difficulties to set proper scale of "usual object size" - does complicated when object are bigger when closer or smaller when further. I did have ready camera recording and could not adjust lens for best possible reading for Camlytics, but even on quite clear and good areas Camlytics was not accurate. Lack of recognizing passenger cars vs big trucks

Amazing Analytics Software

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: We wanted to understand the use of our floors better and have used camlyitcs to measure the people entering and exiting the floor during the day to better understand how we’re using the space.

Pros:

Great analytics tool and amazing way to gain insight from normal cctv or camera data. Generally easy to use and well documented

Cons:

Difficult to calibrate sometimes due to not being able to choose a frame to calibrate from. Also with non live videos you can’t choose when the analytics times are recorded. Would also be nice to be able to skip / scroll through these videos.

The counting wasn't right. We used it at the entrance of a festival and it counted about 1/10th of the people being actually inside.

Thank you for the review! For maximum precision counting please make sure that you are using the Overhead preset together with an overhead camera. Also, make sure that the calibration is correct https://camlytics.com/help/analytics.html#calibration
