    Overall a good product. Night vision isnt always clear. At times one camera won't change from night vision to day vision. I would still recommend this product.

    The software is lacking in comparison to the Swann system i replaced which was 5 years older. I was disappointed in the quality of rhe cameras in conoarison to the Swann system as well. I would not recommend this system to anyone else.

  • Almost two years later - cameras no longer work

    Purchased 11/24/2023, cameras worked until a month ago. System no longer connects, tried replacing Ethernet cable. Reached out to support, they had us do a factory reset and connect two separate monitors all to say oh well it’s broken at end of call. Not worth trouble of initial setup to stop working after close to two years in.
