I have a client who is looking for a solution to integrate cctv with a (any) ANPR solution that can,I assume recognize the number plate of cars and store in a database and has the ability to post this data to other backoffice applications, crm, marketing app. etc.

Is there any ready software to do this ? Or your recommendations ?

Check out OpenALPR (http://www.openalpr.com). It is free and open source and is very fast and accurate. Given an image it will recognize all the license plates and give you the text of the characters.

Since it's open source and written in C++, you should be able to integrate this with your application fairly easily.
