Just bought this a week ago, 6/19/21, and the product was really what I expected, pros:
1. easy set up and configuration, and installation
2. pictures in live view or review were crystal clear, even with zoom in
3. broader view angle, 85 degree
4. No connection hiccup viewing via mobile devices so long as you have good wifi bandwidth
Minor cons:
1. No audio recorded or in Live view
2. there are 1 or 2 sec delays between actual happenings and recordings
3. False positive alerts with one of my cameras and no sensitive settings to control it except turning on/off
4. the DVR was so hot, esp. at the HD location as its vent designed were not good; I had to place a small external fan and it helped
In all, recommended product

This DP8 is what I expected. Excellent detail. DP2 may as well be a toy...it's not worth the material wasted to manufacture.

This unit is a replacement for an older model. The software is much nicer to work with. The older unit handled 8 cameras and the new one handles 12. The one and only issue is with the remote software. You must have a cellphone to set it up. The world still has people who do not need nor want a cellphone. I do have a tablet but its not tied to a cell service. When you try to create an account it wants to send you a code as part of the first time log in. It sends it to a cellphone number not to the email address it asked you to provide. It will not allow you to create the account. I talk with a rep but he indicated my only option is to use someone's cellphone. The best option would be to have the code sent to a standard email which I can receive on any device.

System Operates as Advertised.

This is the second Night Owl system purchased. The first one was damaged from a power surge. The new system works better, buy is still a little difficult sometimes to see the cameras on the cell phone. It doesn't always want to connect. I can't say if it is the internet connection or just the way the system operates. The video is very clear with the new cameras. It's a great system for what it cost.

Simple installation and setup - expected longer cables, though.
