Have you ever wanted an IP Camera or Webcam, but were concerned about how difficult the setup may be? Now, imagine a camera that you can have up and running in a few minutes anywhere in the world! 3Gstore is happy to announce the CloudCam, which uses cloud-based management, allowing you to view your cameras anywhere you have Internet access. The CloudCam is so easy to set up that your grandmother could do it, but also offers advanced features for users looking for more options.

What separates CloudCam from standard IP cameras?

Standard IP cameras and webcams aren't the most user-friendly devices and can be difficult for novices to understand and configure; there are also limitations about what type of internet connection you can use with them. For instance, with a standard IP camera or webcam you can't use them over Verizon's 4G LTE network due to network limitations. If you've never set up a standard IP camera or webcam you can see all the complicated steps involved here: How to Configure an IP Camera or Webcam

With a CloudCam, all you need to do is connect an Ethernet cable from the CloudCam to your router and turn the device on (some models also allow you to connect via WiFi instead if you prefer). After you've connected the device to your router and set the CloudCam where you'd like to monitor, simply download the mCamView app to your iPhone or Android smartphone and launch the application (if you're using a Windows computer, you could use the included Cam View software instead of the app if you'd like). After the app or software is installed, click "add camera" then enter your CloudCam ID and password (this info comes with your camera) and you'll see your video within seconds! There's no complicated "DHCP this" or "Forward this port", just two numbers you need to enter and your cameras can be accessed anywhere in the world (with your password, of course). Checkout the video below to see how easy you can setup a CloudCam:

These of course are just some examples of what a CloudCam can do for you. We're sure that you'll find all kinds of interesting uses after you discover how easy a CloudCam can be implemented virtually anywhere.

What is the Cam View Software for CloudCam like?

Now that you know how easy CloudCams are to set up, let's take a look at the experience on a computer. Every CloudCam purchase includes a software CD loaded with Cam View, which is the application you'll use to view your cameras from a Windows computer (unfortunately there isn't any software available for Mac computers at this time).


Just like the CloudCam, the Cam View software is incredibly user-friendly and allows you to quickly access up to 36 CloudCams! Similar to the iPhone/Android Global View application, simply click "Add Camera," give your camera a name and enter the included CloudCam ID and Password. Within a few seconds you'll be greeted with a video feed wherever your CloudCam is aimed. The software also allows you to view multiple cameras, which can come in handy if you've purchased multiple CloudCams to monitor different areas of your home or office. Rather than tell you how easy the Cam View software is to use, check out the demonstration video below:
