love the Swann cameras. Great system at an affordable rate. I install security cameras in New Orleans and when people need an affordable system that's reliable I tell them Swann.

Someone tried to steal my car last month, so I decided to buy this surveillance system. It's been pretty easy to set up. I haven't put up all the cameras yet, but the ones that are up are functioning well. I work in security, and this system is very similar to the one at my work, so I'm pretty happy about that. It felt very familiar the moment I started using it.
Unfortunately, I've been having problems with the Android app. I have to open it about a dozen times before it actually connects, although it might be user error. There are a couple things I still want to try.
The iPad app works flawlessly though, so if I can't get the Android app to work, I may just switch to an iPhone since I've been considering getting one anyway.
One feature I'd like too see in the app is an audible alarm for specific cameras that's loud enough to wake me up. The person that tried to steal my car did so while I was asleep, and my garage is a separate building. But I've already added door sensors and motion sensors in my garage that are connected to a very loud alarm that's right next to my bed, so I found a simple workaround.
The thing I like most about this surveillance system is that insects don't trigger the camera motion detection very often, if at all. I have cameras from another company where insects set off the motion detection about every 5 seconds making the motion detection pretty useless.
What's also nice about the cameras is that I don't see as many shady people around my house as I used to. I've already had reason to email photos to the police of people behaving very suspiciously on my property thanks to this surveillance system.
Anyway, I'm just glad I bought this surveillance system, because it's protecting me and giving me peace of mind :-)
