Entry Level Security Camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like this camera because it sends text, push, or email alerts to my phone if their is movement during the armed period. It was easy to set up and has a solid picture. My only complaint is that sometimes I have armed the camera only to check back later and see it is disarmed. This only happens about 10% of the time and you can arm it from anywhere so it isn't a huge deal, but it does greatly affect security so that is why I am giving it 3 stars.

Good Quality, Outdated Features
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, this is a good quality camera. But, it's features are outdated compared to other surveillance cameras. There's no playback from your phone, you have to sign up for a subscription to even play back 8 second recordings of motion detections, and to play back what's on your SD Card, you have to eject the card and play on your computer. I returned it and picked up the Samsung SmartCam for the same price which has way more features.

Ok camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Camera is OK, set-up is fast. Sometimes takes time to connect after switching Wi-Fi on. Only records 10 secs on cloud, which is annoying. You can't view remote the recording on SD card, which many cheaper versions do.

Good starter monitoring system
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.System has too many push notifications and upon disabling tries to force you to accept. System doesn’t allow you to save to your own iCloud account forces you to use theirs at a cost.

Great for low price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy set up and works great. You will want to purchase cloud storage which is $50.00 a year. I have multiple cameras and it gives me piece of mind to know if I have a break in I will get a text message with a video of who it is.

Disappointed

Good for basic home surveillance
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Relatively inexpensive and easy to set up. Picture is very clear. Wish I had ability to expand recording to 30 seconds when motion is activated....looks like Guardzilla charges you a monthly fee to get this feature.

Our first security camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this was purchased to keep an eye on a relatives house while away. Have been monitoring for past 3 weeks and its working great. Night vision clear and crisp. Should have bought it sooner! Great little product! Thinking of buying more for other houses.

Better than just ok...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picture is great, crystal clear. Sound is not that great, especially on cellphone. There are a few things I could think of to make this camera way better, but that's not what I get $ for... Overall, 8/10

This works
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This surveillance system does everything it says it would. I can look at my home while away and it alerts me if someone comes in. Can't beat it for the price. I will be purchasing another one soon.

Does what I needed.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy set up. A little more challenging to add second phone but got it done without requiring tech support. Has performed without flaw thus far. Plan to add another camera to system in the future.

Great security camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent security camera. Night vision is pretty good. Has a speaker to scare off animals or intruders, and a mic to listen to area surrounding camera. The app is easy to install and straight forward and user friendly. Strongly recommend.

Very easy set up
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera works great, very clear picture and works great with apple iPhone. I just wish it had a pan and tilt feature in the event that what you are looking at moves out of your picture frame.

It's the bare minimum
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have yet been able to connect Alexia like the advert promises. Be careful. It is just bare minimum security that requires additional money for the cops to be auto called.
