Why Choose
Nexo Security?
Thinking about setting up cloud video storage for your CCTV system yourself?
If you’re comfortable with technology and want to save on setup costs, it’s possible to configure it on your own.
However, if you’re not confident with network settings, security configurations, or integrating storage with your existing cameras, hiring a professional is almost always the safer and more effective choice.
Below is a detailed step-by-step guide to help you decide and, if you choose the DIY route, get started the right way.
Proper planning is the foundation of any reliable cloud storage system for CCTV. Before you purchase a subscription or make changes to your setup, take time to answer the following questions:
Why do I need cloud video storage?
Common reasons include accessing footage from anywhere, protecting recordings from theft or damage, meeting compliance requirements, or expanding beyond the limited capacity of local DVR/NVR systems.
What do I expect from my storage solution?
For example, if your goal is simply to keep a short archive for basic review, you may not need large storage capacity or extended retention. But if you need recordings for legal, insurance, or compliance purposes, longer retention periods and higher resolution storage will be essential.
How much capacity do I need?
Storage requirements depend on the number of cameras, resolution, frame rate, and retention period you choose.
What access and management features matter to me?
Decide whether you need simple playback, multi-user access, analytics integration, or AI-powered search functions.
What is my budget?
Cloud video storage plans vary based on capacity, features, and security levels. Finding the right balance between cost and functionality is key.
How will my existing CCTV system connect to the cloud?
Check whether your cameras or NVR/DVR support direct cloud uploads, or if you’ll need a compatible gateway or software.
Once your planning is complete and you’ve selected the right cloud storage plan and compatible equipment, it’s time to set up the system. This involves configuring network connections and integrating your cameras or DVR/NVR with the cloud platform.
Network Connectivity
A stable, high-speed internet connection is essential for uploading footage to the cloud reliably. Ensure your network can handle the required data upload bandwidth based on the number of cameras and video quality.
Hardware/Software Integration
Depending on your CCTV system, you may need to:
Security Configuration
Set up strong passwords, enable encryption, and configure firewalls to protect your video data during transmission.
Cloud Platform Setup
Create your cloud storage account, select your storage tier, and configure retention policies according to your plan.
User Access & Permissions
Set up who can view or manage footage, assigning roles and access levels to family members, staff, or security personnel.
Before considering your cloud video storage setup complete:
Setting up cloud video storage yourself is possible if you’re tech-savvy and comfortable with network configurations. However, your CCTV system’s security is only as strong as the reliability of its storage setup.
Poorly configured cloud storage can lead to lost footage, limited access, or security vulnerabilities. That’s why having your cloud storage solution set up by professionals is often more cost-effective and secure in the long run.

Yes — setting up cloud video storage for your CCTV system is possible, but there are several important things to keep in mind before you start.
The cloud storage plan you select will affect setup complexity and costs:

Not necessarily. While some CCTV installations may benefit from an electrician, many modern cloud video storage setups require little to no electrical work.
Wireless Camera Systems
Wireless cameras are often easiest to connect to cloud storage. They usually run on batteries or plug into standard outlets, needing minimal technical skills. Setup typically involves mounting the camera and connecting it to your WiFi network and cloud storage app — no electrician needed.
Wired Camera Systems
Wired CCTV setups can be more complex and might require running cables, connecting to your home’s electrical system, and managing power supplies. In these cases, hiring an electrician is recommended to:
That said, many wired camera kits now support cloud integration and may be DIY-friendly without needing professional electrical work.
Many security camera kits come with user-friendly mounting hardware and cloud storage setup guides. Some offer plug-and-play cloud connection options, making installation simple for most users. Simple setups can often be done without experts, but consulting an electrician is wise for complex or large systems to ensure safety and performance.
