Good quality cctv system very good at night can see everything as if it was daylight

Very easy to set up and good all round

Unit works well. Picture quality is ok.Very good for the price.12 volt Y cord splitter was damaged on arrival, female socket was crushed so I had to buy a new one on Amazon (later refunded)

It is the best I got 1 and I got 1 for my sister I am so happy thank you so much 💓

I got this for two reasons, it's price, and remote viewing of the system didn't have a subscription cost. There's a couple of key points about the kit, the cameras are analogue signal, so they're not producing very good picture quality. They are light and pretty easy to install, though beyond 15 meters they're nigh on pointless, but seeing as hardly any CCTV is used to watch the horizon or observe other worlds, it's fine for say a driveway at the front of the house. A note on the night vision mode, it's actually quite good and does give about 15 meters of illumination for a low energy camera. Yes - it will attract bugs, but not so much as you can't see anything else, unless it's a spider (see below)On that note, I would recommend having some vicks vaporub handy to smear on the camera body or you'll be frequently looking at a spider and/or it's web.The actual software management of the system is rudimentary, it's astonishingly oversensitive (leaves blowing across the driveway, rain, light changes from the sun, all set the alert off). You can mitigate some of this, but if you want notifications, you'll be getting a lot of them.The system supports facial recognition, but that's not useful if the camera is more than 2 meters from the individual viewing it. Also, the vehicle recognition and the systems general discrimination for people, or "Human detection" isn't too good. I like that it thinks cats are people, but they aint.Overall, it's not a bad product, if you just have it facing and recording one area and you have the need to check footage now and then, it's great. One terabyte of storage gives about a month on two cameras.I'm still seeing after a 6 weeks if the unit is performing consistently - seems so.

Overall very happy with the system - you pay for what you get. Next time I'd probably go for higher quality and wider field of view - but hey, this was my first experience and you learn. The system I purchased included a 1TB hard drive as I didn't want t have to buy extra bits.That said, extremely happy with the system: I elected to connect it up in my loft - easier to run the cables to the outside cameras and used a wifi extender and connected the DVR via a short ethernet cable.Installation is pretty straightforward - there is a small diagram with the instructions and it is easy to miss!Installed the app on iPhones and AndroidThe instructions say to leave out the password - makes me wonder about security issues from outside 'bad actors'; I 'found' the camera using the search function on the app (rather than following the instructions where I kept getting an error) and it works fine . . . and because there is no password associated with it, presumably anyone with an app could search for the camera and look at the feed. As there is no password involved I guess anyone with the right app could look at my camera.Anyhow, overall am extremely happy and in the future would probably purchase a higher quality cameras with a wider field of view as the system can support 4 camerasPS I had a question about whether I needed to free up space on the 1TB hard drive, posted a question and also found a number for isansco product support; I rang it and it rang out but within 10min a representative from the company called and answered my questions and talked me through the correct recording configuration (basically you just leave it on the factory settings and the hard drive will fill up and then erase the oldest recordings; also don't change the settings for alarm or movement as there is a possibility you could miss some 'action' - just leave it on record all the time and you will be able to see previous recordings). Also said there are higher quality and wider angle cameras coming out later. There you go, had to write this up as I was impressed someone took the time to call me and explain their product

Pleased with product

The unit I purchased was not recording due to a faulty power supply, but a replacement was promptly sentThe picture quality is good but the alarm functionality is very limited, overall the unit represents good value for money and the excellent customer support is very reassuring for customers.
