Most Helpful Customer Reviews 18 of 19 people found the following review helpful: 3.0 out of 5 stars Good but doesn't always work., April 3, 2009 By  Christina (WI) - See all my reviews I like the ease of set up, the video quality; however it does not work consistently and I find this frustrating. I can not make sense of when it works and when it doesn't. I don't know if it's because my home's wiring is older or if the product is faulty. When it is working - it is great. Another thing to be aware of is that it's very tedious to get rid of video footage that you no longer want. Each tiny segment has to be deleted one piece at a time. I haven't found a way to delete large chunks of time; such as deleting one day. 15 of 16 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Exactly what I was looking for, November 11, 2008 By  D. Warner (colorado) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    As usual Logitech exceeded my expectations. This system is a perfect all-in-one camera/dvr setup ready to use right out of the box, just make shure your own a decent PC. Out of all of my computers the Intel Duel-Core(@1.7ghz each)processor works the best. Execelent picture quality surpassing even some high end panasonic and sony systems I have used through busnesses.

I highly recommend this product, if you buy it just to test it I bet you will keep it. 11 of 11 people found the following review helpful: 3.0 out of 5 stars Cannot be used as a standalone alarm for business., January 7, 2009 By  T. G. Kraft (Alpharetta, GA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)    OK, I like the camera, seems to work most of the time but something keeps taking the cameras off line and requires a power cycle to get them back on-line. It could be the building power (Historic district, 80 year old house) and I'm running two cameras 300' from the main panel. Not the level of reliability I was looking for in my business, but finding a way to make it work. I went with the Pro upgrade and it needs more features. I should be able to control all aspects of the command center remotely but cannot change brightness (for example), but what is there seems to work fine. I'm using snap shot alerts sent via multi media to my blackberry, they are slow and not considered useful in catching someone in the act. Sometimes I get the multi media alert 24 hours later. Could be AT&T, but haven't figured it out yet. You really should have a dedicated computer to run more than three cameras, it chews up disk space and bandwidth fast. We noticed a serious slow down of our database applications when the cameras are on. Super easy to install, software is easy to understand. Great monitoring tool, not a great alarm system. Extra cameras are too expensive when compared with other systems.

Great monitoring tool, not a great alarm system.

Extra cameras are too expensive when compared with other systems.
