The short version

  • Each has a real cost: DTiQ you are buying labour, so the cost per site is far higher than a self-service video licence and it does not fall as camera prices do.; IAPro a public university's procurement documentation for IAPro (CI Technologies, acquired by Versaterm Public Safety in 2023) states the software is sold as an unlimited-use license covering all concurrent users and workstations with no additional or hidden licensing costs, and the first year of annual maintenance is included free; no dollar figure for that license was disclosed in the document, so total cost is not visible without a direct quote.
  • They diverge on capability: DTiQ covers SmartAudit, IAPro covers Case Management.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

DTiQ

  • You are buying labour, so the cost per site is far higher than a self-service video licence and it does not fall as camera prices do.
  • Audits are sampled, not continuous, so a problem outside the reviewed window is invisible and the score is a statistical impression rather than a complete record.
  • Nothing is published on price and the commercial shape is a multi-year managed service agreement, which is harder to exit than a software subscription and typically involves bundled hardware you do not own.
  • Ownership changed in a $200 million Digital Alpha led investment tied to a Cisco Meraki partnership, so the hardware and network roadmap may shift under an existing estate.
  • It is built around restaurant, convenience and retail operating models, so an organisation outside those verticals gets a generic video product and pays for an audit methodology that does not fit its work.

IAPro

  • A public university's procurement documentation for IAPro (CI Technologies, acquired by Versaterm Public Safety in 2023) states the software is sold as an unlimited-use license covering all concurrent users and workstations with no additional or hidden licensing costs, and the first year of annual maintenance is included free; no dollar figure for that license was disclosed in the document, so total cost is not visible without a direct quote.
