Awesome Products and Customer Service

I've been consistently impressed with Amcrest's commitment to excellence-both in customer service and in the technical quality of their surveillance products. Their cameras and monitoring systems are among the most advanced I've used, offering impressive clarity, smart features, and reliable performance across the board. Recently, I received a shipment that was missing one item. I reached out to Amcrest to report the discrepancy, and their team responded immediately. Without hesitation, they shipped the missing item right away-no hassle, no delays. It's rare to find a company that combines cutting-edge technology with such prompt and courteous customer support. Highly recommend Amcrest for anyone looking for a dependable and professional surveillance solution backed by responsive and responsible service.

Great camera for the cost,

Great camera for the cost, the Vari-Zoom is very helpful when we have a field of view that needs to have a flexible throw distance. We are very satisfied with all the cameras we have purchased from Amcrest!

Warning, not secure!

Warning This camera is communicating with some ip address that is not on my network. 54. x. x. x Amcrest seems to think this is ok? Major security issue for a security camera. Come on people, just do the job! Make your money off being the best you can be.

Excellent Cameras but Weather proof ethernet cable needs to be included

I love my camera, it is high quality, easy to use and install, and everything works as advertised! My only complaint is that while it comes with what appears to be a locking, weather proof female POE connection, there is no indication or help to provide a matching male ethernet/POE cable with the same weather proof end on it. So what's the point? There don't appear to be any such cables available fro Amcrest and there is no information included with the camera to indicate where I could purchase a cable like that. I am hoping that by submitting this review as well as a support ticket will provide an answer. Other than that, excellent camera!! I have 3! Thanks! Chris

Camera Replacement

Overall I felt my case was handled pretty good. Once I created a case, I was contacted by a trouble shooting rep. I told them what I needed and eventually was connected to a sales rep. The sales rep obtained the information they needed to provide me with another camera at a discounted price. I am satisficed my case was handled in a timely manner.
