GB8 Cameras didn't last 6 months Abode Cam 2 cameras are a waste of money. I bought 8 Cam 2 cameras for watching my mom's house, 3 interior and 5 exterior. She's 91 years old and lives 1000 miles away from me. Last year, I drove from Florida to Virginia, setup and installed the cameras, and got the Pro subscription. After about a week, the cameras started to go offline randomly. At first when they were power cycled they came back on. After about a month, they would not. In 6 months, all 8 cameras had failed and would not come back on when power cycled. My mom is not tech savvy enough to factory reset and setup the cameras again. Other devices, such as Amazon echo devices never had a problem. Wifi signal is strong. I have now replaced all abode cameras with Blink cameras and haven't had a problem since. The abode cameras are in a junk box.

GBThey’re ok… Your cameras and sensors are pretty good. I wish I could select only one or two to receive notifications on, like my front door camera for example. However, your doorbell camera is terrible. It doesn’t pick up anything at all and the battery only lasts 12-14 hours. How is that useful?!?

GBHard to get a good response by email… Hard to get a good response by email takes multiple attempts Sometimes alarm goes off no one calls is there a time indicator before you call ? I bought what I thought was a camera so I could monitor but probably my mistake it’s a motion detector

GBThe quality isn’t there The quality isn’t there. The image isn’t clear enough. You cannot zoom in on the footage. The system goes offline more than I think is acceptable and the interface is clunky and could use some additional refinement. I wish I never purchased the system. I would warn future buyer to do your homework and get them to follow through on their word to send samples/live link before buying. I asked and they never sent it. Their 50% off sale is bait tactic. Take your time in reviewing.
