Buyer Reviews
I attempt to preserve up writing critiques for items I acquire, in particular the items that I myself do a lot of research on, prior to getting. So I'll break this down as perfect I can. I reside in a 2-story, 2800 square foot residence. And for the longest time, I've wanted a surveillance system to make me feel secure both when I am at residence and away. The Logitech camera system and computer software does it correct, with only a handful of minor problems, and I anxiety minor.
I have an Apple router but run Windows 7 on my Computer I am also working with the free application on my iPhone. I had zero challenges with the computer software install, even when it came to Window's firewall. I'm at present running 2 indoor cameras and 1 outdoor camera...but, I in fact program on applying absolutely nothing but outdoor cameras for my complete process (to involve for inside surveillance). And that is about the only authentic problem I have with the system. The indoor camera works great and does what it will need to. It delivers excellent quality color video and even more than the iPhone application or more than the internet (from Logitech's webpage), all of my good friends all have said, "Wow, that looks great!" BUT, and it's a significant BUT, as soon as the sun goes down, the indoor cameras are extremely limited. Shy of the poor guy turning on all of the lights in my residence, then committing his crime, the indoor camera is of little use during nighttime hours. And at initially, I was okay with that since I am house at night and it really is in fact the daytime when no one is house. But then I bought the outdoor Logitech camera and WOW, what a distinction given that it holds the particularly exact same top quality as the indoor camera, but also does a phenomenal job at night. So with that, I'm going to return the indoor cameras and use the outdoor cameras for outside as properly as inside. But I nevertheless want to give my assessment on the indoor camera as I've been applying it for about a month now.
Pros:
Color Good quality. Again, wonderful color high quality. Even utilizing the digital zoom, I was impressed at how excellent it looks. My wife getting the glass half empty sort of person commented that you can not see the face of the individual all that well. But my reply was - but you can sure as heck see his race, clothing description, weight, height, hair color and most importantly you can see if he is or isn't wearing gloves...hence, you could see clearly where he may well have left evidence (fingerprints, DNA, etc).
Included 2GB media card. This is a outstanding feature This means that if negative guy breaks in and thinks he's outsmarting you by stealing your computer (with the footage of him), you can nevertheless revert back to the camera itself to retrieve the footage saved to the media card. Yet another good point about the camera media card is that your dwelling laptop or computer does not want to be usually on to be recording. For example, my laptop goes into sleep mode just after about an hour of inactivity. So if my personal computer is in hibernate mode for a complete day, the cameras are nonetheless recording footage and will sync to my computer when it awakes. For it to function seamless, I just leave the Logitech software running in the process bar (background).
Software program. Logitech did it appropriate with the software. It was a incredibly hassle-free install, capabilities are clear and I adore that you can customize each camera you have on your network. For instance, out of the three cameras I have, I only want 1 of them to send off text message alerts. Once again, it is great that the alerts are not just a process feature, but rather an individual camera setting. You can also adjust the duration of alerts to save oneself from receiving thousand texts. For me, a 5 minute window is fantastic, just as long as I get the initial text, I would not be concerned about acquiring 20 even more in under a 5 minute or but long of a window you pick out. I also like the way the software program saves all of the recorded video. With 3 cameras going, I've been receiving a lot of recorded footage. The computer software not only permits you to use pick a offered date and time to investigation, but if you had been to search out for that file in Windows explorer, the computer software does a good job by saving the footage below the name of camera (for example "Living Space"), then the month (ten for October), then the day within that month. Being a police officer, I truly like that if I had to turn more than critical footage (if my home was burglarized, etc), all of the footage would have clear a folder structure and time stamp that would make sense to any other investigating officer.
Alerts. This feature sealed the deal for me shopping for this program to start with. You choose a zone in which if motion occurs, an alert will be sent. For instance, although my camera has a fairly wide shot of my living space to include front door, my only concern is if movement is picked up at the front door. Once motion is detected, a text message is sent to my phone. The alert text message is great it says what camera picked up what motion and at what date and time...simple and effective. BUT, I will mention alerts in the Cons section, so please read on.
Camera size. Again, I have each the indoor and outside camera and was pretty impressed by how smaller they had been. I also lucked out that I have power sources on top of my potter shelves, so I was in a position to plug in the cameras without any wires getting run down walls, etc. And because the cameras are tiny, I've basically told friends that I have the cameras and it still took them a although to essentially figure out where.
The "wow" element. I'll admit it, I'm that guy who loves his tech toys, who loves showing off new technology and how I make it operate for my family's safety. The initially day when I showed all of my police pals the system, absolutely everyone was amazed. I ought to get a kick back from Logitech on all of the prospective buyers I made for them. Becoming in a position to open the iPhone app and show my buddies that I have 24/7 surveillance of my property, felt fairly cool. The iPhone app also works really nicely over 3g cell service (not just wi-fi).
Cons:
Cost. Well I mentioned the "wow" factor when I showed off the technique to my pals. Properly, I got the same expression when I told them how much. For me to get 6 cameras, all of them becoming the outdoor cameras, is a bit pricey. But, I will say that the software program becoming cost-free is great. It's also great to know that every camera comes with that 2GB media card (yet another plus that make the high fees appear understandable). And though I'm not that interested in audio, once again, if you're going to spend the massive bucks for a camera, at least it provides you color and audio as an choice.
Night time quality. Once more, if all you care about is crystal clear footage in the daytime, then the indoor camera is for you. But for me, I began to get frustrated that for so much cash, I was only obtaining daytime footage. For a bit additional money per camera, I feel that it was well worth it, to be able to see what's going on in my house 24/7.
Logitech server. This is a difficult one to clarify, but I'll do my most beneficial. When you install the cameras and software, the alert process is dependent on Logitech's servers / service. In the month that I've been working with the camera, I only had 1 time that their servers went down. In that time, the cameras in my property had been recording as they really should BUT the alert notification method will not perform if Logitech's service is down or disrupted. Even though it was only down for a few hours, I was nevertheless very unpleased offered the truth that the alert technique is what it's all about. I do not want to come household to find my residence has been burglarized and didn't get a text due to the fact the servers were down. Instead, I want to get a text message telling me an individual is there, that way I can call the police and raise my probabilities of getting the suspect whilst he is nonetheless in the residence. The alert service has only been disrupted as soon as, but tends to make me nervous for what's to come down the road as these cameras begin to sell.
Alerts. Once again, read my Pros section about the alert function. Exactly where I had a trouble is how long it can take to get the alert text message. I've completed some especially extensive testing and it ranges among 40 seconds to four minutes from when my telephone gets the alert text message. Now four minutes may very well not appear like a long time, but a skilled criminal can do A LOT in just a couple of minutes. I am not also pleased about the variations on alert times, especially given that there appears to be no rhyme or purpose as to why from time to time I get the notification in beneath a minute, but other occasions more than 3 minutes. Clearly, it has to do with Logitech servers.
Plug outlet requirements. Even though I get why you have to plug in your unit to the actual wall, it does not mean I have to like it. It really is been a little bit of a challenge with some of my cameras to uncover a superior discreet place coupled with getting an obtainable outlet there. I am guessing that at some point, Logitech will begin selling overpriced extension cords or power bars that permit the cameras to operate even without having becoming directly plugged into the wall. I think a read couple of testimonials from people today that have carried out this though I would reside to get their reply or feedback in this assessment thread.
Thanks for reading!
Updated Evaluation 12/19/11
So immediately after a lot more than a year of owning these surveillance cameras, I wanted to update my evaluation.
Originally I purchased the indoor cameras, having said that, immediately realized that the outdoor cameras are your ideal bet - even if the cameras are all for the inside of your home. I nonetheless strongly stand behind that assertion. Just after a year, I've upped my system to 4 outdoor cameras that are placed in and outside of my residence.
I have to say that after a full year, I am nonetheless pretty pleased with the process and I use it each and every day. One particular aspect of the system that did get a welcomed update is the iPhone / iPad application. The preferred component of the updated app is the capacity to see all of your cameras' viewpoint with out getting to selectively decide on every single camera. While I... Read more›
From the moment I opened the box the Logitech Alert 750e Outdoor Master Security Method with Night Vision was particularly simple to fully understand and had superb setup diagrams with color coded ribbons for strain free of charge setup. Where I was mounting the unit 20 feet off the ground I connected every little thing in the residence and tested it to make certain it was working very first. As soon as the camera was mounted in place I just adjusted it to the area I wanted to monitor and then utilised electrical tape about the mount joints as they are not as tight as I would have expected and I did not want to have to climb a ladder soon after each and every wind storm to adjust. Setup was very speedy just after installing the mounting bracket.
It should certainly be noted the the ribbon (power) cable that connects to the outdoor camera is so flat and thin that you can bring it in through a window with out compromising the window seal when the window is totally closed. This is a tremendous plus as I did not want to drill a hole for it.
I set up e mail alerts and also I very suggest if you have some blowing tree branches in view as I do that you set up particular regions for movement detections. If you do this and set the motion rate for recording you will capture only scenes of interest which tends to make it so a lot simpler when reviewing recordings.
The master technique comes with the network hardware and the invaluable command center. This is quite simple to navigate. You can zoom, pan and tilt effortlessly. I am thinking of adding this software for remote viewing as well.
The night vision is suprisinging very extremely excellent in low to know light. I am exceptionally impressed with the night vision and have to say that it is nicely worth the extra capital.
The only drawback I can see to this system is that if you enable and use the audio component which comes built in and has superb range, picks up way to much wind. I would like to see an add on for wind noise reduction. This would not maintain me from highly recommending this product. I did a lot and I mean a lot of analysis (hands on and reading) ahead of creating my choice to obtain this camera and I am quite glad I did.
I highly advocate this item! Picture is quite clear not washy like other people. The audio is beneficial sufficient to capture voices and sounds with in the whole viewing areas and quite often beyond.
I was not in a position to figure out how to upload a handful of pictures with this critique otherwise I would have.
Thank you Logitech for a excellent and properly built technique that appears to have it all.
