Anybody have any experience with exterior camera systems? Looking for an affordable system.
I think I would prefer a DVR type system as opposed to a cloud based, would prefer not to be bound with a monthly payment.
Ideas?
Thanks

I just did a simply safe system for everything. Super easy. But you got the monthly payment
We're happy with the Ring system we installed. $10/mth. though, unlimited cams I believe. We have 6 going.
The good thing about the cloud storage is nobody is going to steal it.
If I broke in and murdered you and your family and managed to steal your dvr and destroy it then nobody would have video of me committing the crime. Not so much with the cloud.
Cut the cable feed going in to the house?Quote:

This would generate a Ring alarm notification to our phones/watches via cellular network.Quote:

Sure but there wouldn’t be any video of ray murdering anyone either.Quote:
