Virtual Monitoring is a fully automated, web based, security alarm and IP camera monitoring platform for UK homes and businesses with broadband Internet access. It is designed as a lower cost alternative to conventional alarm monitoring services traditionally provided by larger approved companies.

The goal of the platform is to support any make and model of alarm panel, plus any make and model of IP camera using your existing Internet connection. Although we have found some low cost IP cameras that do not support the use of snapshots, we have come very close to our goal.
There is no physical wiring required between your IP cameras and your alarm panel. All you need to do is plug the cameras into your router and our cutting edge software takes care of the rest. The platform can record images from your cameras over the Internet and store them on our server - safely away from intruders.
The Virtual Monitoring Platform is provided by IP Alarms of Manchester. Further technical information and pricing can be found on the myalarm.co.uk web site.
