Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common questions about security camera systems.

Footage retention varies based on your storage solution. Cloud storage plans typically range from 7-30 days depending on your subscription. Local storage retention depends on your camera's resolution, recording settings, and the capacity of your SD card or NVR hard drive.

Wired cameras connect directly to a recording device via cables and require professional installation, but provide the most reliable connection. Wireless cameras transmit footage over Wi-Fi and are easier to install, but may be affected by signal interruptions. Both types may still require a power cable unless they're battery-powered.

The number of cameras depends on your property size and security needs. For most homes, we recommend at minimum: 1 doorbell camera, 1-2 cameras covering entry points like the front/back doors, and 1-2 additional cameras for vulnerable areas like a detached garage or side yard. Larger properties may require 8+ cameras for comprehensive coverage.
