So after struggling with Synology and their surveillance station for more than a few years, we had an incident outside our house and having all the family round, they all turned to me and said Look at your CCTV. Imagine my embarrassment when I couldn’t find the clip we needed and when i did, it was the wrong one. The DS Cam app on my phone and iPad lagged behind as well being so slow.
So for the cctv side of things, I decided to junk Synology and invest in a Dahua NVR5216-16P-4KS2E.
And boy what a difference. Obviously something that’s dedicated will be better anyway, but with a bit of practise, you can find pretty much any clip instantly and it’s in a totally different league.
So my message is for Synology surveillance station users is go with NVR or DVR instead, I can’t recommend ithem enough.
