Works pretty good, but needs help.
Works pretty good, but needs help. I've used Arlo for about 8 years now and it still has the same issues. Sometimes the motion detection works, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes you can connect to the camera from your phone and sometimes you can't. Somedays you can play back video on your phone and sometimes you can't. You get the picture… at least some of the time. They have improved the battery issue with a small solar panel. But, then you have to buy 3 more on the internet (only 1 in the package). Arlo (netgear) you are better than this. Keep trying.

No help from arlo
Cameras wouldn't respond. Tried to get phone support, but they have no phones to get any support at arlo. they only offer emails. If you ask for a phone number via email, they refuse to give a phone number, yet only reply with additional emails with canned responses. Makes you feel like your only corresponding with a computer via ai. Save your money, look into other systems.

Great, reasonabley priced security system
Great quality cameras, better than most commercial camera systems! Sound quality is good also. Very easy set-up. I have had these for about 1 month now and only real complaint is that I wish they could be set up on 5G wifi, but can only be set up on 2.4. Would like to add more of these cameras to my property.
