Multiple Businesses

[aprilmae82]

So I am getting ready to purchase cameras for my home and two businesses. Is it best to order them all under the same account so I can view them all. Or because they are separate businesses can I purchase them individually so they are all being purchased by the right parties. Then can I link them with one login for myself so I don't have to back out and back in everytime I need to view something?

The way you order doesn't matter - after you receive the cameras you'd install them into the account you want them in.  So no problem having the orders for the cameras placed separately for each business.

However, you also will need three subscriptions.  If you put the cameras into one account, you'd need to have a single billing setup for all three sites.

There are two approaches you can use.  If you are ok with a single billing setup, you can set up one account with three different locations (using the new "Feed" interface).

You can also set up three accounts (one for you, one for each business), and set up the appropriate billing/payment method in each account.  Then you can share the cameras in the two business accounts with your personal account.  That will let you see all the cameras, and give you most of the useful control features.  Of course you can also log into the other accounts if you need full control from time to time.
