Customers are saying

Customers value the superior camera quality and ease of use of the 8-Channel, 8-Camera Indoor/Outdoor DVR Surveillance System. Many also appreciate the system's affordability and effective night vision capabilities. However, some customers have noted that the DVR can be quite loud. Overall, the positive feedback on image clarity and user-friendliness outweighs the negative comments regarding the DVR's noise level.

    We used Swann before, so we didn't expect any surprises, but we bumped into them. Pretty complicated setup that gave us very basic functions. We didn't find how to save video on hard drive and play at computer. Picture is good after installation and all basic functions worked. But since we needed a little more, we returned it after some days of testing.

    The camera's and the installation (done by best buy) went great. Clarity is great, but operating them is tough. I still haven't figured it all out yet. The app was hard to install. I used the help line and got it installed on my Ipad, but have been unable to get it on my Iphone. I guess another call to helpline is in order, maybe they cam tell me how to playback more than 5 minutes...
