Hikvision cams with an alarm service like alarm dot com?

As times change, more and more requirements are being placed on security and video verification. Has anyone used Hikvision cams with there alarm service?

This might not be quite what you're looking for, but it is an interesting discussion on integrating security systems and camera events (albeit via Blue Iris in this case).

What I am iinterested in is that instead if having to use let's say an alarm dot com camera or a 2GIG camera you can use a hikvision camera instead.

Spoke with my alarm monitoring rep today. Hik cams can be used as long as you don't use the hik ddns service. Alarm.com you can only use their brand specific cams.
