Very early days and I will add to this once the system has been in use for a bit of time.
Incredibly easy to install. I've fitted many variations of cctv before and needed a good, quick installation, so chose this kit. Not disappointed at all!
I got everything working properly on the kitchen table in 5 minutes before fitting the cameras. This makes life easier, as you know it's all going to work!
Very simple and easy camera mounting system. Time will tell if it stays exactly where it was when you tighten it up. Any bumps to the camera will move it, so that is a minor weakness.
Anyway, both cameras mounted and up and running without fuss.
There's no stupid ongoing monthly payment too! Most camera manufacturers stitch you up for ongoing data storage charges as well as the purchase price. Not so with Eufy! Full marks for that. You can, however, pay to have data storage, but you don't "have" to if you don't want to, as the system comes with a mini data server. Someone will always argue "What if it gets stolen?"... Ok, if that worries you, take the optional offsite storage. At least you can choose with Eufy.
Minor-ish problem. You can exclude areas from the movement detection (Activity Zones), but, as has been widely reported, this doesn't work at all. Keep this in mind.
The iPhone app is pretty flawless and the cameras, once set up, send notifications as expected.
I've added a Eufy solar panel to each camera, just to be sure of continuity due to power.
It's worked for 24 hours and only alerted me to people, not cats and birds etc.
If it keeps going like this, I'll add the final star, which I reserved for that purpose.
So far - a very good purchase!
