Swann DVR 4-Net Digital Video Recorder

Swann DVR 4-Net Digital Video RecorderI purchased this DVR at Frys Electronic in August 2005. It worked just a little over a year, then just died.

The PC application design is not user friendly. The user manual is poorly written. For some reason it is not possible to go to a specific date and time to review a recording... the feature while present in the software, didn't work. This defeats the purpose of 24x7 recording of motion triggered events.

Overall the DVR 4-Net seemed to be an un-finished product, Swann needs to work out the kinks.

Also I wished the product allowed the user to upgrade it's software. You are basically stuck with the software that was flashed during manufacture (not an issue if it worked properly).

I would not recommend purchasing this device.
