The 4k camera system is included in the subscription cost, which starts at €115/month (unlimited users). This allows teams to be completely set up to professionally analyse football matches without the need to raise initial thousands.
With zone14 there is no need for extra costs such as tripods, mounts, and storage cases as all you need is included in the subscription cost. The ‘tagging’ and analysis tools also come at no extra cost. There is no increase in price for multiple teams using the camera, meaning the first team, reserves and youth teams can all use the one camera at no extra cost.
Other solutions often have high upfront costs. For example Veo charge €999* for their camera, with the mandatory subscription cost starting from €67*/month (for use by one team only) and an extra €30*/month for use of analysis tools. Further costs include necessary add-ons such as the 7.3m tripod (€399*) and storage case (€89*).
Whilst Veo makes it possible to have complete ownership of the camera, there are a range of benefits of leasing the device. Leasing means maintenance becomes a lot easier. If there are any malfunctions replacements are more easily sorted. Upgrading is easier, there is no need to purchase a whole new device again in future. Products also depreciate over time as technology advances, making it difficult to sell products you own if you wish to upgrade in future. Subscription services also ensure you receive a greater commitment to development, as the business must work hard to earn and retain trust and loyalty from customers.

zone14’s AI Technology has been trained to track the movements of the players rather than the ball. Coaches speak highly of the benefit this wider view gives in tactical analysis. It allows views of players off the ball movement and shape, as well as in possession. Player Tracking makes zone14 a more effective tool for recording training sessions and other scenarios where multiple balls may be in-play. This system will also soon make individual player data a possibility for users.
Veo’s AI track the ball movement, which has benefits for live broadcasting. However, in terms of analysing players positioning and generating data a player tracking system is more effective.
With Veo, it is necessary to take down the camera each time after use to charge it for next time. Whilst this makes for a more portable solution, it adds extra work for smaller teams who only work with a few staff already on a busy schedule.
First time (and one-time) installation for the zone14 analysis camera takes approximately 45 minutes; there is no need to take down the camera each time after use. The camera can even be scheduled to start recording in advance. This means there is no set up on match day and the coach can have complete focus on the match upon their arrival to the ground. All making zone14 a non time-consuming analysis solution, but one that allows teams to gain the most valuable insights for tactics and training.
Veo’s battery powered device can be more useful for pitches in remote locations with limited power supply. But this does mean the camera cannot be used for more than 2-3 matches. This is not always helpful for pitches where multiple games will be played across the day. Batteries can also mean more costs as battery quality can deteriorate over time. Meaning after some years a new device is required to be purchased as it is not possible to only replace the battery. On full capacity, Veo’s battery powered device has a maximum recording time of approximately 4 hours. The camera also takes 4 hours to charge to full capacity.

The benefit of having a non-fixed mounting system is of course the ability to take the camera to away fixtures. However, clubs have often found it is useful to have a camera than can be easily shared by all who play at the ground.
With Veo, it is necessary to purchase a tripod to mount the camera. The highest tripod current available from Veo is 7m.
