How does Milestone handle the firmware updates of connected devices?

Milestone handles firmware updates of connected devices through the device management feature within the software. This approach provides a streamlined and efficient way to manage various devices directly within the Milestone platform, ensuring that users can easily keep their devices up to date without the need for extensive manual intervention.

Using the device management feature allows for an organized view of the devices connected to the system, making it easier for users to identify the status of firmware updates, check for available updates, and initiate the update process without having to leave the software environment. This integrated method enhances user experience and reduces the potential for errors that might occur with manual installations or other less streamlined processes.

Additionally, while there might be other methods for managing firmware updates, relying on the device management features ensures that users work within a unified system designed to maintain optimal device performance and security.
