Great system and works like clockwork

First thing I did was research and search for a surveillance system for my business. To be honest, there are many systems out there that offer almost the same features and functionality, just from different brands. I was pretty stunned by the market. I stumbled across this one while searching one day. And then I simply decided on this one because: 1. I like the design and the color. (There are probably a lot of white people there, but for some reason it just caught my eye.). Judging by the pictures these cameras look solid and I was hoping they weren't made out of cheap plastic. 2. This system is not as extensive as others.3. This is a wired system. Personally, I don't like wireless counterparts because I know they can be hacked and I've seen it on the news. The 1TB main memory block is also a plus point for me. According to the description, it offers many features such as night vision and motion detection etc. Personally, I don't care about all these fancy features as long as they work reliably. After receiving them, I installed them myself (I have to say these cameras are very well made). This is my first video surveillance system that I installed myself. I would say it needs some work especially to mount it on the wall and run the cables. But the connections and operations are quite simple, and please read the manual if you want to do it by yourself. Now it works great as you can see in the picture. I don't really pay attention to all the other fancy features, but it does have night vision. I would say this is a great system with all the basic features you would need in a CCTV system. I will update more once I have explored all the features.

Pros
  • Custom Motion Detection
Cons
  • Out of fashion
