GW? Reolink? Is there a go-to "budget" kit?

Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, back after a few years and looking to go IP/POE to replace my two remaining analog dome cameras (CNB-VCM-24).

 

Looking for 8 cameras for around the exterior of the house.

 

Costco kits around $1,200 have terrible reviews, which kept me away from IP. But GW and Reolink are also around that price on Amazon and to my astonishment seem to have good reviews. Then I read some kits are re-badged Dahua products (some Lorex?) and also see information about Hikvision.

 

GW (I would probably go with turret cameras as they look more compact to me)

So I am quite overwhelmed, is there an obvious choice at this price-point.

 

Thanks,

John

Been wading through posts and posts. Still don't know who makes what (re-badged dahua or hikvision, etc) Saw this on the Lorex site, black Friday sale.

This looks like it was a great deal a few months ago. Currently the kits available at costco don't look too good.
