Current NVR technology, looking for best option that doesn’t end up costing me more than needed

I’m looking for a multipoint solution for security monitoring. I have a few locations globally separated and I want to find a common solution to use.

I have unifi networks, but the unifi cameras are overpriced and I havent even tried the Protect UI.

I have a synology NAS in one location, and would be open to the DVA series if it was actually worth it, but again, I’ve never used this either.

I have used MotionEye OS on a pi, and the interface was simple and easy, can’t remember if it controlled PTZ as well though. Also, I’m not sure if a Pi can handle 20 IPcameras, especially if the majority of them are PTZ.

BlueIris…windows only, which means I’d have to build another PC, or at the minimum a VM on one of my servers.

In the end, I will have roughly 4 cameras at the small sites, and about 20 at the main site. It’s 2023, is there something better that I don’t know about?
