For what? You literally put fucking Spyware on your home and pay for it! Why would you do that.
Because having a video doorbell is incredible and the vast majority of people don’t have the technical know-how for a DIY solution nor the funds for a professional one.
I’ll stick to HA and Amcrest myself but the pros outweigh the cons for anyone who fits the above description
My mom’s in the market for one of these door bells. Would you recommend an Amcrest for someone with no tech know-how?
Unfortunately I’m not sure. I know Amcrest has its own app and ecosystem but Home Assistant users like them because you can bypass all of that and use your own software
Funny, the cost of my dvr security still costs me 0 per month.
Yeah same. Although we use Lorex which I think is proprietary and connects to their servers but if something ever happens, I can probably hook it into my nas and run it there.
I had a lorex and thought the same until my Internet went out and I wasn’t able to access the cameras I’m my own house even though the lan was up and running.
My lorex functions with internet cut off. It just goes to the drives installed in the dvr. Don’t know what happened with yours. Maybe I got an older version

I inherited a Ring but never paid the subscription because subscribing to a doorbell is ridiculous. Recently replaced it with a Reolink PoE and it’s so much better.
