Here's why I switched from Zoneminder to this free NVR
Zoneminder is brillaint for keeping your home safe, but I feel like Frigate is much better and here's why.
When self-hosting as much as you can to save on cost, headaches, and keeping control of all of your data, you've likely come across network video recorders (NVR) solutions such as Frigate and Zoneminder. I've used the latter extensively for a few years, and only recently have I made the switch to Frigate, largely due to my esteemed colleague Ayush Pande's excellent coverage. These handy packages allow you to connect IP cameras and can track, monitor, and even alert you to various events.
