    great little NVR for amcrest and other IP cams
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2023*

Nice little NVR, I've installed them at work and home and they get the job done. The remote access is nice, and there is a current application you can download for mac or windows that lets you manage multiple units in addition to the web interface.

    Does not handle even close to 16 8MP cameras
  

*by R***C on Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2020*

We bought a 16 channel system only expecting to use 8 or 9 cameras.  It worked fine for the first 8, but the 9th camera caused problems.  That camera would freeze, often it was seconds to minutes behind real time, and playback was funny.  In playback you could see a person cross 50 feet of space in a second, since most of the frames were never recorded.So if you want support from this company that claims to be made in america get ready for a long hassle.  First you have to fill out the form online listing all your equipment, model numbers, serial numbers, etc.  In a couple of days you get an email.The first thing they will ask you for is your model number, since they can't actually access the online form you submitted!  Next they will suggest you do a manual camera reset.  If you choose to believe this is the route to go you are expected to climb a ladder and take the camera apart to get to the reset button!  Yep break the factory waterproof seal and hit a button!When this does not solve the problem you get to find out the first layer of defense is an asian based call center that does not understand anything and is just following a script.  A couple of hours later they will decide you need to talk to Houston, Texas.The next call went to an indian based call center and not texas.  They will want you to download an app so they can get inside your computer and poke around on the NVR box and cameras!  I said no way.The next call was finally Houston, TX.  This guy we did finally allow on an old computer we don't use anymore to access our system.  After almost 3 hours he reset all our cameras to 1080 resolution and completely wiped out all our settings back to factory.  We spent weeks tweaking every camera setting to minimize false alarms...  He said that is the best that can be done and promised to try and sort something out.He has never responded again to emails.  So after 5 hours on the phone, tons of emails, and we now have a system that sort of works most of the time, with terrible resolution.  We can barely even make out a license plate at this resolution.  If I had wanted 1080 cameras I could have spent 1/2 the money so I am fighting for some sort of solution to this problem.They claim the issue is our internet speed.  We have just over 100MPS speed here.  When cornered they say it is not the upload speed, but the download speed that is the issue.  No where in the description of the NVR does it say this nor in the manual.If this is not enough to make you run away try sending in a couple of cameras for repair.  It will cost you 15 bucks in shipping and in our case they sent back the wrong camera!  Oh and the camera they shipped said made in mexico so what about that american made claim?  I had to fight them over several emails before they finally admitted the mistake and am still waiting for the replacement camera.  Three weeks so far and they claim the delay is due to corona...

    Upgraded my NV4116E to this model...VERY PLEASED!!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2023*

I recently upgraded from an Amcrest NV4116E that I had for 4 years. This newer model is a significant improvement in performance and it works great with all my existing Amcrest IP cameras. The fan is much quieter than the older model. Remote viewing and playback of my 8 cameras with the Android app is much smoother than before. Also the local viewing of the cameras is much clearer with 4k HDMI feed to my LG OLED big screen. Amcrest has improved the system menus and functions as well. Very pleased overall!
