Connected dash cams with instant remote access
Access footage from any vehicle without visiting it. Live streaming, automatic cloud upload and instant alerts mean you're always connected to what's happening on the road.
SD cards keep you waiting
Traditional fleet dash cams store footage on SD cards that must be physically retrieved. This creates delays when you need evidence quickly.
Days of waiting
Days of waiting for footage whilst SD cards sit in vehicles across different locations. You cannot access video remotely, so incidents discovered on Friday might not have footage retrieved until the following week.
Manual retrieval processes
Manual retrieval processes require someone to visit each vehicle, remove the SD card, transfer files to a computer, and review hours of footage to find relevant clips. This admin burden drains time that could be spent managing operations.
Missed golden hour deadlines
Missed golden hour deadlines for First Notification of Loss because footage isn't available quickly enough. Insurers need evidence within 24 hours but your video is trapped in vehicles you cannot reach.
No real time visibility
No real time visibility of what's happening right now. You discover incidents after the fact rather than being alerted immediately when they occur.
What makes a dash cam "connected"?
Upload footage automatically
Connected dash cams use 4G mobile networks to upload footage automatically to the cloud.
Remote video access via web or app
Unlike SD card cameras that store everything locally, connected systems give you remote access to video from anywhere through a web portal or mobile app.
Instant alerts & live streaming
The connection means instant alerts when events occur and live streaming directly from vehicles.
Data retrieval
Everything happens remotely, including automatic evidence submission to insurers, without physically accessing vehicles or retrieving storage cards.

Frequently asked questions about connected dash cams
A connected dash cam uploads video directly to online storage using a mobile data connection. This eliminates the need to physically collect SD cards from vehicles. Managers can watch footage on their computers or phones, get notified immediately when driving incidents happen, and even watch what's happening in vehicles right now through live streaming.
The key difference is accessibility. SD card models keep everything stored in the vehicle until someone retrieves the card manually. Connected models send video over the mobile network so you can view it remotely. If you need evidence quickly for an insurance claim or want to know about an incident as it happens, connected systems deliver that. SD card models work better for basic recording needs where immediate access isn't critical.
The choice depends on how quickly you need footage. SD dash cams record to a removable card that you collect manually after incidents. This keeps costs lower but means waiting until you can physically access vehicles. Connected systems upload footage automatically and alert you immediately but cost more monthly. Choose SD for budget-conscious fleets where evidence can wait. Choose connected if you need instant incident awareness.
Yes, you can view several vehicle cameras at the same time. The platform lets you switch quickly between different vehicles or watch multiple video streams together on one screen. Useful for checking on various operations happening simultaneously across your business.
Any video already sent to online storage stays safe and accessible. Even if a camera gets destroyed in a severe crash or someone tries to tamper with it, you'll still have the footage that was uploaded before the damage occurred. This backup protection is one of the main advantages over cameras that only store locally.
Yes. Connected dash cams work in cars, vans, HGVs and commercial vehicles of all sizes. Van dash cams are particularly popular for delivery and trade businesses, whilst the same system works equally well in trucks, lorries and smaller fleet vehicles. Professional installation ensures cameras fit properly regardless of your vehicle type.
