Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The wan port is designed for plugging into your internet router. It incorporates many featurea found only on systems costing 2 or 3 times as much. Easy to install and easy to setup.

Video is crystal clear. Very nice viewing and control when installed using gigabit switches. Only downturn is the quality of the cameras, which left me a little disappointed.

It is not a 4k system and does amazingly low frames per second with just one 4k camera on it. Good luck finding a replacement for the non-standard plug.

The program they use is sooo buggy. Heck the software on the nvr isn't even theirs.

    The 4tb drive was initially enough to keep a couple weeks of footage on it for 7 cameras

    Well as of february of 2023 i noticed that i could only keep about 5 days of footage on the 4tb drive
