This Zmodo camera system was incredibly easy to set up. Once all of your IP wires are ran the system really is plug and play. The image quality is great and the system was a breeze to put together. My only complaints would be that the app for the phone is a tiny bit glitchy at times and the IP plugs on the camera's are a bit bulky so the holes you have to drill for them end up a bit big, and they are not weatherproof, so they need to be protected from the elements either pulled into the wall you mount on or with some form of cover like heat shrink tubing. Kinda silly for a camera intended for outdoor use. Luckily all of my cameras where placed where the connection ended up inside. Honestly for a 4 camera system with true HD capability and performance I havent found a better deal. Everything was surprisingly easy and I am very satisfied.Read full review

I've had this system for 4 weeks now. It's easy to install and get up and running quickly, but the software is glitchy. The range on the cameras is about 50 feet with a couple of sheet rock walls. Brick and metal ruin the signal. The basic hardware runs smoothly, but the online access and the iphone app are not consistent. For example, you'll get a motion alert on the phone but you can't look at the motion it recorded--it always says video not available.. Their cloud service doesn't pick up the video very well. If your looking for a passive system for a good price, then it's great. If you're looking for lots of hands on functionality, then look elsewhere.

The Zmodo 4CH 720P PoE NVR HD Security Camera System with 4 Indoor/ Outdoor Night Vision 720P Security Cameras 1TB HDD Smartphone Scan QR Code Quick Remote Access was sent to me (at a discounted cost or free of charge) so that I could provide a genuine and an impartial review. The first time I powered it up, I had only one camera connected. After it booted, it showed that lone camera exactly as it should. I powered it down and plugged the other 3 cameras in and only 3 of the cameras worked, so I powered it down and checked all the cables, switched them out and tried again. It still only showed 3 cameras. After I determined which camera was not working, I removed it in the settings. The NVR immediately picked it right back up and it worked perfectly. Remote viewing via my Nexus 6 works great. Logging in locally, via my browser works well and allows administration. The ONLY bug I found was that when logged in via the browser, the NVR did not show that it had an HDD installed. The UI on the NVR does show it correctly and allows it to be formatted. It comes with proprietary Ethernet cables, BUT cat5e and cat6 cables can be used. Although the instruction sheet is sparse, it provides all the necessary information.Read full review

For the money you can't go wrong with this system. The video quality is AMAZING---even at night. The DVR works well and was pretty straight forward to set up and use. I can watch live video and easily view video from the past. The package is pretty comprehensive (except for the hard drive which I had to install separately) and is a very good value for the money. The only negatives are relatively minor. First, the cameras connect to the ethernet cables via a standard female connector. The main problem with this is that the connections are not waterproof so you need to weatherize it for outdoor use (which is pretty silly for an outdoor camera). Some people have used heat shrink tubing successfully. I just covered the connection in caulking. It's not the prettiest but works great. The other negative is that the viewing software is somewhat buggy and there is NO Mac version of the ZViewer software. It is nice to be able to bring up the cameras on my iPhone although the iPad version seems to crash all the time. You will have to know how to open up two ports on your router too in order to view any of the video outside of your network. Overall though I couldn't be more pleased with this system! The quality is great and it was a really cheap implementation. Highly recommended!Read full review

Fairly simple to set up even with zero directions. Mounting cameras is fairly straightforward. Then download the cell phone app. You have to click on the plus in the app. Then set it up through zlink. After connecting to it. Then enter in your WiFi network information. It found all of my cameras pretty quickly. If you want to adjust the motion range of each camera. You have to add them individually. The app works but could be configured for better user friendliness. It will show me a live feed while I am not at home. The image quality is very good in the day. Depending upon where you mount the cameras. They are hit or miss at night. Two of mine do really well. Two not so great at night due to there being mixed light on at night time. For the money this is an amazing deal. I will probably put up a light to help the cameras with the night problem. The one in a pitch black area sees great at night.Read full review
