I'm still setting up AND using Ubiquiti UniFi Video cameras. I have 3 already setup. I am 3 more ready to be setup and I'm going to be ordering around 9 more for my house. Easy to use and setup.

Costco sells a pretty decent Samsung kit with 10 cameras, DVR, and remote access via iOS, Android, and browser. Its designed to be a DIY install if you don't mind running cables in the wall. You could probably find someone to install it if not.

I purchased several IP camera's from Amazon for around $50 each for indoors and am getting ready to get one for outdoors that uses wireless. The only wire I have to run is for the power cords. Then I purchased the Blue Iris monitoring software for $40. This allows me to monitor all cameras and have them set to record on motion and I have my google drive backing up the folder where the videos are stored. That way if my home gets broken into the video will be uploaded to the web.

I have a digimerge 8 channel DVR with 5 lorex cameras and one monoprice camera. it has sent 2 people to jail and logged numerous bears walking through my yard.

the resolution is decent on the cameras, but I am going to upgrade the DVR to a 960H resolution 16 channel unit when funds permit because I want to be able to log license plates also

my setup is analog/wired. I have 2 on the back crossing over each other to capture the whole yard, 2 crossing on the front, 1 watching the back door below the deck, and one dedicated to the driveway. there is some redundancy, but more coverage is better in my book......
