Bought this with an additional camera to replace our old, nearly identical, SVAT system for our exterior doors. This system has the same low definition as the one we had purchased nearly 10 years ago; all our other cameras use 5MP. The range has also not increased over the years, as we're still having a low signal for one of the locations. The push-to-talk button is still inconveniently located on the side of the unit, rather than on top or the front. The only thing that has changed is that this unit does not come with a remote; our old one had a remote, which was a very convenient feature. For the price it is good enough as an additional unit, but not as a standalone.
system works great that why i bought another camera.But just as important was the treatment i received from Melissa and Donna.Their helpfullness & politeness were excellent.You have 2 really great people there.
I started out, about a month ago, purchasing one camera and a monitor to try it out. I've since added a second camera and will probably add a third. After I added the second camera I started having problems with the cameras losing connectivity. I went to The Defender website and had a live chat with an agent, Darrielle. She sent me a link to the Defender website and simple instructions to download a firmware upgrade. Problem solved very quickly. I am extremely pleased with the support area.
I love this system. It was easy to install and the day time and night vision are great. The monitor provides good resolution. I use a 128G SD card and that holds 24 hour coverage for well over a week.
I have been recommending this system to all my neighbors.
