This FTD-8 System was much more user friendly than my first Night Owl unit which quit working after 8 years of continuous use. This Night Owl was very easy to set up. I do wish that the installation instructions had mentioned that I needed to install the "Night Owl Protect CMS" program on my laptop in order to view the cameras on my PC. The CMS program is different than the Smartphone App, which is simply "Night Owl Protect". The only oddity that I'm experiencing is, every few minutes, a random camera will quickly flash a colorful scrambled screen, or a camera will go blank for just a second. It's not really troublesome, and I can live with that. I'm hoping that it might be caused by something like my electric sump-pump cycling on and off every few minutes because we're having a very wet and rainy spring season.
I'm happy that I bought this FTD-8 system. A huge plus was that the original Night Owl camera wires that I installed 8 years ago were compatable with this new system and its 4K cameras, and I did not need to run new wires.

Great quality video but way to slow and choppy

These have great quality video but will jot stay connected most of the time. Keeps dropping out and says oops. The audio is useless because it is choppy and cannot hear what anyone says. I have a older wired version without audio that works much better. I was really hoping this would work well. Very disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I bought a refurbished hard wired system from night owl and couldn’t be happier. From the infrared indicators on the cameras them selves to the facial recognition capabilities of the system itself, I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. Not just adding a feeling of 6 new watch standers for my home it’s also stands out from the neighboring systems it provides visual indicators conveying that this is not the property to be trespassed upon.

My son ordered the DVR for me, and it is perfect fit. Fired right up and feel safe again.

I bought this to replace a unit left by the previous homeowner (no password provided). The existing cameras (8 total) worked fine when I plugged them into this replacement unit. Great picture quality. Can't tell the unit is refurbished. Good price and fast shipping.

I will never buy night owl again. And ive been using them since 2016. My 720 and 1080p cameras, and the old dvr are way better then these 4k. I'm so disappointed. Haven't had them for a year and the cameras are already having problems. The new dvr is useless. I don't understand why you guys took all the best features and got rid of them. I'm so mad i can't even explain all the problems I've encountered within the last 9 months.
