Most companies max out around 720 lines of resolution. Our top of the line HD SDI DVRs and HD SDI cameras record at 30 frames per second AND at a cinema like resolution of 1080p—the highest ranking on any consumer DVR system you will find. Other Security Cameras and DVRs may boast that they record at 30 frames per second, but be aware—they don’t always do it at 1080p resolution, which means a noticeable
drop in picture clarity. If identifying suspects, their facial features, and other potentially admissible evidence is important to you, we have the systems that can provide it. Dome cameras are typically used for indoor and outdoor use, such as
exits and entrances, doors, rooms and offices, and smaller areas. They are generally one of the “go to’s” for DIY home surveillance systems as they usually come equipped with a narrow, yet focused, field of view for hallways and other others where you need to view big distances within a narrow space.

Cloud
storage makes it
easy to store and access recorded video, but it can cost hundreds of dollars per year depending on your subscription. Some systems offer both cloud storage and local storage, and some provide a dedicated storage drive that gives you DVR capabilities with time lapse recording, which makes it easy to find a video event that took place at a specific point in time. All of the systems we've tested feature an app that lets you use your smartphone as your command center to arm and disarm the system, create rules, add and delete components, and receive push notifications when alarms are triggered. Most apps also allow you to do things like view live and recorded video, lock and unlock doors, change thermostat settings, and silence alarms. Some apps will even use your phone's location services to automatically arm and disarm the system according to your physical location. The more expensive systems usually come with a wall mounted panel that acts as a communications hub, with a touch screen display that allows you to do everything the app does.
