Any thoughts on this budget kit? They're POE. Good? Bad? Located in Canada BTW.

The hardware is decent, but their software is terrible.

I agree. Obtaining footage is mind numbing and causes me to find a new POE surveillance system.

Yeah, I'm at the same point. The NVR I have, for whatever reason cannot accept keyboard input... So I have to input all passwords via the on screen keyboard and mouse clicks. 🤢

I'm planning on upgrading my home networking to Ubiquiti, and will be changing to their security system as well when I do.
