The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Euna Solutions the suite is assembled from six or more separate acquisitions and integration between modules is still being completed, so a buyer purchasing two modules should ask precisely what data passes between them today rather than on the roadmap.; VIVOTEK VAST Security Station vAST 2 has entered end of maintenance with technical support and software files withdrawn, yet distributors still list VAST 2 licences, so a buyer can be quoted unsupported software without realising it.
  • They diverge on capability: Euna Solutions covers Euna Budget, VIVOTEK VAST Security Station covers VSS Lite free tier.
  • 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.

Euna Solutions

  • The suite is assembled from six or more separate acquisitions and integration between modules is still being completed, so a buyer purchasing two modules should ask precisely what data passes between them today rather than on the roadmap.
  • No pricing is published at any level and terms are typically multi-year, so budgeting the true cost requires obtaining peer jurisdiction contracts, which is possible but slow.
  • Individual modules face specialists with deeper functionality, so a jurisdiction buying only procurement or only budgeting may get less capability than from a single-product vendor at similar cost.
  • Ownership has changed twice in six years, from a SPAC to private equity, and further change is plausible, which creates roadmap uncertainty over the length of a typical multi-year public sector contract.
  • Grant management depth is oriented to United States federal and state programmes, which makes the product close to useless to public bodies outside that funding system.

VIVOTEK VAST Security Station

  • VAST 2 has entered end of maintenance with technical support and software files withdrawn, yet distributors still list VAST 2 licences, so a buyer can be quoted unsupported software without realising it.
  • The free Lite tier is hard capped at 32 cameras and VIVOTEK devices only, so a site that grows to 33 cameras or adds one third-party camera moves straight to paid Standard licensing.
  • VSS Professional includes no camera licences at all, so the edition that large deployments need starts from a higher effective price than the tier comparison suggests.
  • It is a camera manufacturer's VMS, so the third-party device list, analytics ecosystem and integration catalogue are all narrower than an independent platform like Milestone or Salient.
  • No pricing is published for Standard or Professional channels; everything runs through distribution, which makes budgeting a phased expansion difficult without repeated quotes.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Euna Solutions: Is this the same company as GTY Technology?

Yes. GTY Technology rebranded to Euna Solutions in 2023. The individual products came from acquisitions including Bonfire, Questica, eCivis and CityBase.

VIVOTEK VAST Security Station: Should I still buy VAST 2?

No. VAST 2 has entered end of maintenance with support and software files withdrawn. VSS is the current product, and any VAST 2 licence still on a distributor price list should be questioned.

Euna Solutions: Which product was Bonfire?

Bonfire is now Euna Procurement. Questica became Euna Budget and eCivis became Euna Grants. Ask which underlying codebase a demo is showing.

VIVOTEK VAST Security Station: Is VSS Lite really free?

Yes, for up to 32 VIVOTEK cameras per server. It does not support third-party cameras and cannot exceed 32 channels.

Euna Solutions: What does it cost?

Not published. Modules are quoted individually by jurisdiction size and users, usually on multi-year terms and often available through cooperative purchasing contracts.

VIVOTEK VAST Security Station: How many licences come with Standard?

Eight camera licences, usable for VIVOTEK or third-party devices. Professional includes none.

Euna Solutions: Do the modules actually share data?

Partially, and it varies by pair. Get the specific integration between the modules you are buying demonstrated on real data before signing.

VIVOTEK VAST Security Station: Is VIVOTEK NDAA compliant?

VIVOTEK publishes an NDAA and TAA compliant product list, which is why it appears in United States public sector specifications where Section 889 excludes several other manufacturers.
