    Wow!
    Bought this a month ago, easy system to install. Quality of videos are superb and the interface is easy to use. I've had no problems installing it, and customer service was excellent in helping setup. Able to playback or watch live. Clear night time playback and live viewing.

        Met expectations system was all they described.
        I purchased the wireless system prior to buying and found that it would not meet my needs. Spoke to the company and they recommended this system. It was relatively easy to install and setup. Still learning all the features but pleased with what I have been able to do so far.

          Lots for you money
          Just bought this took a little bit to hookup but not hard. The template for the outdoor mounted cameras was not right there off 1/4 inch but that was about it so far as problem. Still trying to get used to the software and all the settings but I was surprised as to how far the night vision worked .When the light gets to low it goes into B&W mode but works fine. You might want to order a few of the 100 foot cables just in case so you dont have to wait for them if needed and not splice to make the originals longer. You don't have to drill holes LARGE ones to run cable through walls if you dont want to, there is grooves cut to let you mount cables along wall or building. I tried to get into my attic and there was no way to reach the area I needed so run cables outside but out of the way so others cant reach or cut. I watched videos and Youtube videos and none showed this so thought for some not looking to drill a large hole or try climbing into there attic this would help.Get you some zip ties to.

              PEACE OF MIND
              This is the best home security camera system I have ever owned. The designers of this system made it easy to use and program. The night vision is excellent, far superior to my other system. Your security lights will not affect its performance rather improve its night vision without glare. What really impressed me was the ability to easily program the unit not to trigger on normal movement areas such as the bush or tree or anything that moves in the wind without having to lower its sensitivity level.

All this programming is in plain and simple terms that makes this unit my choice.

                  Great system for DIY's
                  I bought this system on a Labor Day sale, really can't beat it even at regular price, I installed it this weekend....and wow! Better than expected. Easy to install; hardest part is running wires in the attic. The picture is better than most I've seen and the night vision is really great. If you have even a little extra light in the area where cameras are pointed; you can get up to 100ft easy. Would highly recommend. I know I have only had it a few days, but I am really impressed with the quality of this system. Hopefully it will continue for many years to come and has already given my family peace of mind.

                      Easy to install and great tech support
                      I purchased this a month ago and the initial installation was super easy to install and get up and running. I had trouble with the networking but I spoke with the technical support folks and ten minutes later, I was able to see my cameras on all of my computers, phones and IPads. If the product is as good as the technical support, this system will last forever. Well done folks!!!

                        easy set up
                        it comes with everything you will need and the image looks better than a 700tvl I installed in the past. the casing of the cameras has a unique and a cool hard shell. I would definitely recommend this product.
