Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The GOOD. 1. Nice looking product; not cheaply constructed 2. Easy to physically install. 3. Video is clear and focused. 4. Night vision is very good. 5. Cables were of an adequate length. Summary: Good hardware. The BAD. 1. Instructions are poor. Some functionality and setup functions are not described at all. 2. The motion detection simply does not work: At times I'll get one email every minute from the same camera when there has been no motion at all, then no emails when a person walks in front of it. This is happening without me changing the sensitivity. I began receiving one email per minute about an hour ago after having received none all day. It's possible I have something configured wrong, but the small amount of documentation provided doesn't describe proper configuration. 3. The DVR unit reboots two to three times per day. 4. Sometimes it is not possible to connect with the mobile app. Summary: Bad software. If I have any trouble at my house, I'll have to search the video to find it since motion detection alerts do not work properly. My money is gone, so I have no choice but to work with what I have. When I buy a system for my barn, it'll be a different one, hopefully with software/firmware which functions properly.. -EDIT- One month later: One camera now displays only a black and white picture, and I am receiving NO motion alerts. So my original statement that the hardware is good was very wrong. I've contacted the manufacturer by email after they offered to replace the DVR and my messages have been ignored. This system is crudely built JUNK.
