Review: Great value CCTV system, and really helpful after sales
service - We'd had our previous CCTV system for over 11 years.
It'd been moved over that time across four properties.. and it
was still working fine up to a few weeks ago. Bought from Maplin,
it was a low res analogue system, but suited our needs over the
years. That said it went pop, and I started looking online for a
replacement. What drew me to this system, was the fact that I
could use my existing BNC/12v cabling. It was a doddle to set up.
I quickly plugged in all my original cameras, and bingo up and
running. I thereafter replaced the old cameras for the new HD
ones, and was stunned by the increase in quality and the wide
angled nature of the views compared to my previous ones. On my
previous system, it was a nightmare setting up router port
forwarding to view the CCTV online. Not with the Annke system, it
was a total piece of cake. It works great on the Android app, and
with regards to viewing on the laptop, it transpired that I could
view the cameras on my existing EZVIZ PC software, which was a
totally unexpected bonus. So now we can view our external CCTV
Annke cameras and our internal IP wireless EZVIZ cameras all in
the same place. So I was genuinely delighted by the system, it
was working fantastically, and all at a great value price. About
10 days in, it did however develop a problem. The hard drive
failed, and it was showing "abnormal" in the settings and it
wouldn't record or playback. I contacted desertcart, and their
response was to send the entire kit back for a refund. This
wasn't acceptable, as I just wanted either the box replacing as a
unit or for a new hard drive. Ultimately I requested that they
give me contact details for the seller. After common sense
correspondence with the seller, they had me carry out various
test. I was lucky in that I had an old hard drive lying around,
and ws able to swap it out. It worked perfectly for days, but as
soon as I put the old one back in, it would fail within minutes.
It was conclusive that the hard drive had failed. The seller
arranged a replacement hard drive and asked me to be patient. In
all honesty I expected it to take weeks for it to arrive, but the
reality was that arrived in two days! Great customer service. So
now the new 1TB is running perfectly, and we're really happy with
it. You couldn't have asked for more. Going down desertcarts
route of returning the whole kit would've taken an age to take
everything down, repackage, and then have to reinstall
everything... so we were really happy with the sellers helpful
approach. Anyway I'll wrap it up there, hope this review is
helpful. Thanks for reading.
Review: Easy to install and use - I like this company. As a total
newbie to CCTV I bought their DVR with a harddrive and 2 cameras,
which my electrician wired in. The mobile and desktop apps were
easy to download and eventually easy to use (it always takes ages
to set up the first time though) but I had an issue with the
timestamp showing the wrong time, even though I set up the
correct timezone. I emailed technical support and got the issue
resolved after a couple of days of to-ing and fro-ing. As the
images are such good quality (even on the night vision setting),
I spend far more time than I should watching what's going on at
the front of the house :)
