We have owned the night our security system for several years, we are on our third system. The last system that finally wore out this week we purchased in 2017 and utilized The night owl HD app. I utilize an old tablet as a monitor in my work area so that I can see when I have deliveries. The tablet is mounted and displayed my four primary cameras throughout the day uninterrupted. It is too far from the system itself to use a cable to have the normal monitoring. This app is absolutely useless for a constant monitoring. It shuts down right at the most inapt time and then takes forever going through all the steps to get it back up and running again. Basically this app is made my system useless for my every day use and is making me reconsider night owls system.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great System

The system itself is great, however my only complaint is that i ran all my cables to a patch panel in my closet where all my network gear is at. After punching all of the cables down into the patch panel i found out that the other end was not pinned out according to industry standard. all of the RJ-45 heads were reversed and i had to redo all of the cables. I used the industry standard of T568-B. Most people would have never found this issue because they would just plug the cable end directly into the NVR.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good thing first, the quality of the image is amazing! The images and videos are very clear. The app is easy to use as well. Not so good...the cables! It was not difficult to install. My husband and I installed all the cameras by our self, but all those cables where a hassle. The hard work pays off!

This is my 4th Night Owl system. Still figuring it out. Most of the settings are done from my smart phone which im not sure I like, maybe just because I was use to doing it all on they system in the past models. Picture is crystal clear compared to my last system and I like have sound back.

spotlights are great!

WOW! Awesome buy! I had the installer put all 8 cameras inside and outside around my house. I love the feature on the app where you can shut off the spotlights because I really didn't want the lights in my house but absolutely wanted them on all outdoor cameras!
The lights are super bright which I love so it's like a deterrent for anyone who comes on my property!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thank you so much for the review and for choosing Night Owl. Yes, the spotlights can be easily disabled if there are select cameras you do not want the light on. It looks like the installer did a great job. Thank you for sharing!

Amazing 4K security system

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I totally am in love with this night owl 4K security system. I got tired of relying on my internet connection to be able to save and stream my properties video feed. This is all on a 1TB hard drive and honestly it’s a very easy setup. Everything is wired. Each camera comes with ample length to run a connection to different areas of your house or property. So far the Apple app it pretty good. I have very fast internet so my stream is perfect remotely. I love the clarity and the spot light motion sensor. It makes getting a clear shot at night easy. So far I am loving this system and might upgrade for other cameras.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am very disappointed with the live viewing options on the NVR. I purchased the 4K, 8 camera system but to my surprise after setting up the system, the monitor does not show the option on live view for just all eight cameras. It goes from six to nine cameras. You don’t even sell 9 camera systems. Who in their right mind would write a program for a non existent nine cameras system, but exclude the option for standard selling eight system.
It does show the eight cameras live view which makes it just confusing as to why there is no consistency.
