Complex System With Poor Support

This is the third system from this brand, and it is now regretted. The setup is complex and difficult to manage for a non-technical person. For three days, attempts to reach technical support by phone were met with a message that no one was available and an instruction to email instead. Speaking with a person is needed, not email discussion. The phones should be answered.

Cons
  • − Complex and difficult setup for non-technical users
  • − Poor technical support
  • − No phone support available, only email

Works briefly, then connectivity problems

This system performed well for a few weeks before developing connectivity issues. The cameras can no longer be checked from a phone. Common troubleshooting steps were attempted, including power cycling, resetting the router, and deleting and reinstalling the app, but the connection still fails. Technical support is described as essentially nonexistent. The experience does not justify the cost.

Pros
  • + Worked well for a few weeks
Cons
  • − Connectivity issues
  • − Unable to check cameras via phone
  • − Troubleshooting steps ineffective
  • − Tech support essentially nonexistent
