I received my system a couple weeks ago and got it installed. The cameras are nice, images are clear and crisp, and there are many things that can be configured with the system giving a lot of flexibility. Out of the box my cameras were not pre-paired to the receiver, so nothing worked. The install guide and online videos didn't help. I did an online chat with Support and they walked me through the pairing process. The Support team was great and the pairing process was easy but it was frustrating that I had to go that step. My other ding on the system is that the configuration interface is very old school. At this point, I would have expected to be able to use a web browser on a laptop to configure the system.

I thought this system and was told the system would be able to send text to Phone when someone is at the camera un less I have missed it it does not . So if it does not I’m not very happy with the system most other security camera systems do
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good afternoon. The system does not send "text messages". Rather it can be set to send push notification alerts to your iOS or Android smart device when motion is detected. The alert shows up on your phone and you can click on it to be directed to the app. So... it's similar to a text, but they are push notifications. These can be easily enabled within the app in the settings menu. Thank you for choosing Night Owl.

I don't often have/take the time for reviews but I believe this deserves a few minutes of my time. This is the second Night owl system I have purchased. Over all, the systems work very well, however, remote viewing in the app can be a pain due to buffering and failure to load cameras. This is likely due to slow internet speeds available on our end Although I do have some issues with my first system which has very fast internet. I installed this system in an aircraft hangar yesterday. (8 Cameras) the first camera I installed was 32 feet in the air. I mistakenly dropped the camera from about 34 feet onto concrete floor after bouncing off of a beam. I was 100% sure it was destroyed. I decided to go ahead with the set up and to my amazement, the camera survived that fall with NO visible damage AND connected and still worked perfectly! I have to admit this is a testament to the camera construction. The setup for the second system was surprisingly simple as it automatically connected to the app already installed on my phone and walked me through from there. That in itself was a real relief. I had to contact tech support for my first system last week and they were quick and responsive. Had my issue resolved in minutes. I have 5 large aircraft hangars and will likely purchase 3 more systems in the near future!

Great NVR and Cameras - bad instruct/procedures

I bought an 8-channel NVR / 4-camera package (wired power, wifi image streaming) for my parents in 2017. They have worked flawlessly for 5 years now though I recall the setup was frustrating. I bought the same package (but 2022 version) recently - having same experience. But when setup I'm confident they will work reliably and as good as the system I had purchased for my parents 5 years ago.
